    1. It is high on my list! I am planning on waiting until my children are older so they can join. It seems like it would be a good place to start their international travels!

    1. It is so hard to get to everything! Everytime I see someone somewhere reading, I am envious. There is a library of books in my head that I would love to get my hands on, if I only had the time.

  7. Breakfast Club & Ireland made my list too. I read BossyPants and I must admit I thought it would be funnier.

    1. You are not the first person I have heard say that. It seems to be either "it was the funniest thing" or "it could have been better".

  8. I see Ireland is on a lot of our lists. Maybe we should have a blogger conference there one day. :)

  9. Kim you were cracking me up with your reading list. I love to read, but it can be hard to fit it in! I loved your number one passion "My Family, as crazy as they may be." Isn't it true, family can be a bit crazy but we still love everyone. I love your movie choices. Why didn't I put the Breakfast Club?! It's definitely high on my list. Anything with Molly Ringwald.

    1. Love Molly Ringwald! While I struggled with the list of books, I had to narrow down my movie choices...what does that say ;)
