My Questions from Olivia

1. What inspired you to start blogging?
When I began, it was a way to share my love of stories and writing with friends and family. Not a whole lot has changed, yet I realize now that my sole inspiration for blogging is simply to encourage others. I want them to walk away from my blog, devotions, or mini newsletters refreshed and inspired!

2. What is your favorite instrument to listen to?
I love listening to any of the instruments that I play... haha! Piano and violin are a couple of my favorites. However, I have always loved listening to the harp and I would love to learn to play it someday. 

3. What is your favorite sport to watch?
I never watch sports!! I'm always playing them. Haha! Volleyball is my favorite. ;)

4. What is your favorite season and why?
Spring or Fall. Why? Because I love the smell of change that fills the air. Both seasons are incredibly fresh and promising. 

5. What is your favorite flower?
Right now, wildflowers, especially prairie roses. They are so delicate and such lovely surprises - like a little smile from God tucked inside the grasslands of North Dakota. On a more formal note - you can never go wrong with roses!

6. If you could have any animal as a pet what would it be an why?
Hmmm... the only answer I could come up with for this is a horse. And I have one. Five actually. They are such powerful yet graceful animals, and they make wonderful friends. ;) Training and riding our horses is always an adventure and they teach me something new every day.​
