For this week’s #AskAwayFriday, I get to connect with my long-lost Twin: Lanaya from Raising Reagan. Seriously it’s as if we were separated at birth or something because we seem to find out something else we have in common on a daily (almost hourly) basis. Besides having a beautifully unique name, she also has an awesome and unique Blog. Lanaya describes her site as an ‘OCD MOM WRITING ABOUT A PRECOCIOUS TODDLER’. This may be true but Raising Reagan is that and so much more…she writes about the adventures and humor of Raising Reagan her as well as some great cocktail recipes, workout tips and wonderful giveaways.
Now, it’s question time with Lanaya’s questions for me…
1. What is the bravest thing you have ever done?
I’m not exactly what you would call a ‘brave’ person. Hmmm. Bravery does require a certain amount of courage so I would say making our first move to North Carolina. Simply because I always lived near and around family. That was the first time I actually moved outside my safety zone and did something for just my Hubby and our family.
2. If you could be one of the Disney princesses, which one would you choose and why?
A Princess? I’m such a Tom-Boy…I think if I had to pick a Disney Princess I would most likely pick Jasmine because she 1) gets to wear pants 2) never waited for a Prince to rescue her, she was always thinking and ready to save herself and go find her own adventure and 3) she had a really awesome pet tiger…plus if I remember correctly she seemed to do all her own stunts! LOL
3. Which would you consider a better trait … honesty or loyalty?
I think I would go with honesty because I feel if you are a truly honest person your honesty would lead you to be loyal anyway BUT I don’t think loyalty would guarantee honesty. Does that make sense? I rather have someone tell me the truth because being told a lie only makes me feel as if you didn’t think I was worthy of the truth. I wouldn’t want the loyalty of a dishonest person. It’s not worth anything.
4. MAC or Windows?
I’ve actually never used a MAC. So simply from that I can only say Windows. I will say I saw a pic of Mrs AOK’s MAC and I am definitely intrigued.
5. I just gave you $500 to spend on yourself – not your family, not your friends. YOU! What would you buy?
Wow! I almost always ended up buying something for the Kiddies. I would probably get my hair and nails done then maybe purchase a purse and/or outfit. These are things I almost never get to do. #MommaLife
6. Give me a peek into your typical day …
Starts at daybreak. Get Kiddies ready for school: showers (Girlies) and breakfast
School Drop Offs
Blogging, Lunch, Playtime with Buddies, Errands, Housework (cleaning, laundry, etc.)
School Pick Ups (Girlies)
After school snack
Homework
That Day’s Activity: dance, choir rehearsal, girl scouts, band, etc.
Dinner
Story-Time
Blogging
SLEEP!
7. What is the one tool you would say is the best for interacting with other bloggers? {Example – Blog Comments/Twitter/Facebook, etc.}
Twitter…I have gained the most followers and the best friendship through my interaction on Twitter. I am able to announce my posts, draw traffic to my Blog, engage with other Bloggers, interact with Brands and connect with network communities all through this one tool.
8. What is your favorite flower?
I know it’s kinda cliché but I love roses…not red but pink tones and the multi-colored bunches.
9. Would you rather go on a cruise to the Caribbean or guided tour of Italy?
Cruise to the Caribbean. I don’t think I would want to be ‘guided’ because I like to explore on my own and I’ve never been on a cruise before.
10. What is your favorite subject to write about?
Love, Life and Laughter: Every part of my life and what I come across in my day-to-day including my Kiddies, my Hubby our silly moments and our not so silly ones; my adventures with friends and simply people I interact with. I honestly just love to write.

Your day looks almost like mine. I feel better now. Because I thought I was insane!
Haha! Insanely awesome! LMBO…I am the queen of multitasking and there are times I overbook myself…but I do it to try and let me Kiddies have as much fun as possible before I drop from exhaustion..LOL
I love the point you made about loyalty and honesty. So eloquently put and so true! I have been trying to get my hubby to take me on a Caribbean cruise for yeeeeaars now. Who knows if we'll ever make it, especially now, but here's hoping! Always love reading your writing, Tiffany!
Thanks Meg! I wasn't sure if it came out on screen the way I wanted it to. 😉
Here's hoping we BOTH get our cruises sooner rather than later (and that they're not just a Disney one…lol) !
Xoxoxo
I'm all about Jasmine also. She wears PANTS, so comfy. I was Jasmine one Halloween when I was a little girl – best costume ever lol.
Yes! When my daughter told me she liked Jasmine too that was why…it's all about the pants 🙂
This is funny! I used to totally want to be Jasmine growing up lol! I want a Mac one day. There are just too many great things I hear about them! I so agree with you concerning honesty and loyalty! Great answers my dear! xoxo
I didn't think jasmine was so popular but I guess she is 🙂
I'm totally stalking the MAC now. I take honesty every time!
Thanks Lovie! 🙂
I would totally be Jasmine too…just for the tiger 🙂
Thank you for participating and your post was awesome!!
Thank you for creating such an awesome LinkUp…! 😀
I love that you picked Jasmine! She's a total bad ass. And yes, her stunts are amazing. I think all the hair would trip me up though. I have enough as it is. LOL
I hear you about the bravery thing. When Brian and I were still dating we moved to Pennsylvania with all of our friends/family being in California. No ring on my finger and I still moved! BRAVE!
I'm a windows girl myself but I do know how to use a Mac.
Cruising is a blast for sure but I still loved my guided tour of Europe. Both are must dos again.
And I am totally a twitter whore! I used to make fun of the people on Twitter — I am absolutely addicted and love it!
Thank you so much for swapping with me.

I love jasmine's hair but that's probably because until recently that use to be me…of course i always just pony tailed it …much like Jasmine LOL
Wow PA to CA…WHOA! That IS Brave! Go You! No Ring to boot? Kudos! yet it all worked out… 🙂
I'm and definitely interested in a MAC now on appearances alone…LOL I will have to do my research…
I enjoyed the swap tremendously and I'm sure we will find more things in common as our friendship grows…
Hey Tiffany! I'm back on the link up this week! So excited to read all the blogs this morning! My daughter is really into the Disney Princesses right now so I LOVED your assessment and rationale for picking Jasmine! I'm all about teaching her #GIRLPOWER. Of course there is nothing wrong with wanting a handsome Prince but you don't need him to save you! 😉 I have a Macbook but nothing like that beauty MrsAOK has. . .I think I drooled a little! LOL! I went on one cruise ad that was enough to last me a lifetime. Not a big fan…ironically enough it was the confinement that got to me! Love this link up headed over to check out more! Have a great weekend!
Hi! Yay! Happy to see you! Jasmine is actually my oldest Girlie's fav too and her reasoning was because she got to wear pants too..LOL I do think she is one of the stronger of the bunch though…she loved Aladdin but didn't wait to be saved by him. I think in the series she actually saved him most of the time 🙂
Girl that MAC…I am walking around looking at them in stores now…all because of MrsAOK..LOL It's GORG!
I have only ever been on a small boat once for like an hour and i was 3 months preggers so I'm not sure which was making me sick…lol I don't like being confined either but everyone tells me they are so large now-a-days you don't know you are on a ship…I dunno…I guess we'll see where life takes me..
Have an awesome day and start to your weekend!
I also consider moving to the big city away from our families as one of the bravest things I/we've done. Our son was only 7 months old then, it was scary and exciting at the same time!
We are also the same with number 5, since we had kids, they always come first, never mind the new jacket or shoes beckoning from the mall. 🙂
Great Q&A! 🙂
Yes. I'm not the adventurous type because I'm always to cautious about anything happening to me because of my kids so that was the closest thing to 'brave' I could come up with…lol Thanks for the great comment Jhanis 🙂
