Tag, You're It!

Caroline Elizabeth, from Temptation and Bliss, tagged me! How cute?!! We're both _____ Elizabeth. Loves it!!!

1. Black and white pictures: I love how you focus on the emotion and not the colors. They remind me of my grandparents' photographs. Right now I'm obsessed with gallery frames w/ B&W pictures.
2. Duffie: I had a really rough time my junior year in college. I would leave for the weekend to visit Mr. SE or my parents and honestly didn't want to return back to school. The only reason I would go back to NC was because Duffie needed me. Seriously. You know that scene in Marley & Me where Jen Aniston is crying because Marley is the only one that understands her? That was me. I call her my guardian angel because not only is she white, but she saved me from a really rough period in my life.
3. Girlfriends old and new: No matter how secure or wonderful your relationship (or no relationship) with your man, it's incredibly important to keep strong females in your life. I'm lucky enough to have several close friends from college, one from high school, and one here in Nashville. Your relationship will inevitably go through ups and downs, and there might be things that Mr. Wonderful doesn't understand. These girls will get you through. Keep them close, and always let them know how much they mean to you.
4. The Beach: Everyone loves the beach, I love it during the off-season (early spring and fall). The waves are super romantic, especially if you're cuddled in a big sweater.
5. Reading: Growing up an only child, I learned to do things by myself. Reading is one of my huge pleasures in life. I've really enjoyed reading memoirs, non-fiction, and fiction alike. Jane Green is one of my favorite authors (she has a new book coming out this month), and I'm currently getting some great advice from Dave Ramsey in my present read.
6. Blogging: I'm sort of an introverted extrovert. Does that make sense? It takes me awhile to get comfortable and talking, but once I start it's hard to stop! New followers and comments get me so excited- I love the interactive aspect of blogging. I refer to my frequent readers/commentors in day to day conversations with Mr. SE. He thinks its kind of weird.

Now I'm going to tag the following blogging beauties:
