Erin was kind enough to share her thoughts and she did not disappoint. Check out her revealing comments below!

The 10 Things I Love…

- I love the smell of horses–it’s my favorite smell in the world!
- I love bass fishing–fishing is my favorite past time.
- I love black, it’s my all-time favorite color, and, if I could–everything I owned would be black.

The 10 Things I Hate…
- I hate the color purple with a passion. You will never find it anywhere in my vicinity. When I was little and would get purple ribbons I would throw a fit.
- I hate when you’re in a pleasure class and someone comes and parks their horse right in front of you when there’s an entire arena to share.
- I hate a dirty horse, it is one of my biggest pet peeves in the world!
- I hate when people don’t mow their lawn, especially when I have to look at it everyday.
- I hate when someone calls me and I call them right back and they don’t answer.
- I hate voice mails–I never listen to them.
- I hate when the tire rims on my car get dirty–they must stay clean at all times!
- I hate any type of Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings. I don’t do ghosts and goblins.
- I hate reading. I’ve never successfully read a book besides Seabiscuit and the only reason I finished it was because it had a horse in it.
- I hate the Cowboys. Worst team to ever grace the NFL.
