50 Conversation Starters + Happy Mail Inspo

Hello friends!

You know those posts where I share questions to ask your friend or pen pal or spouse? I’m back with a slightly shorter list today, as well as some pictures of a happy mail package I sent recently. Once again, credit for a lot of these questions goes to my fiancé, Sully. I hope you enjoy answering them as much as I have!

Enjoy some thought-provoking questions and springy art. 🙂

  1. Aww, cute! (I loved your hand-lettered postcard!) Thank you SO much for the creative list of questions! I know I need to ask more questions even in conversations, so this is suuper helpful!

  2. 40. Have you or your parents ever gotten a ticket?
    No. *knocks on wood* My dad did get a warning in a different country because the speed limit was different. I am not legally allowed to drive yet, and have never driven. 😃
    And may I just say your artwork for the happy mail is gorgeous!!!😁

    1. Ooh, good for them! My mom has, and my dad got a ticket but got out of it in court, hehe. I bet it would be extra stressful driving in a different country!
      Aww thank you. ❤️

  3. Thanks for the interesting questions🙏🏼💖. I’ll definitely be using these for my questions of the day. Also, I tolerate the cold better. I feel useless in the heat. I would rather have a big wedding. Not big, big but big. Speaking of weddings, it’s almost time for yours🎉🎉. How are things going?
    How do I feel today? Well, I feel good, it’s been a good day so yeah. How are you feeling?
    And yes, I’m very good at multitasking, are you?

    1. You’re most welcome! YES, I agree with you! I am always cold, but I think I’d rather be cold than too hot because I also feel useless in the heat. It makes me exhausted. Yes, I’m excited to have a big wedding too! We’re thinking it’s going to be about 250 people! Things are going great, thanks for asking. I want to send out the last few invitations today and help Sully move into our new house this week. I’m so glad you feel good today! What have you been up to? I feel good too. I just woke up but I feel well-rested. Yep, I’m pretty good at multitasking too. It’s a handy skill, right? 😛
      I loved hearing your answers, Sabrina!

      1. YESSS🎉🎉. When it’s cold there’s a lot you can do to warm up but when it’s hot there isn’t really much you can do to cool down‍🤷‍♀️.
        250😯?? I didn’t think that there would be that much people but then I’m sure that it will be amazing to have as many of your loved as possible there on your big day🎉🎉. Ohh sounds like things have been going well. Hope it stays that way🎉🎉.
        I recently hit 300 followers and I finally decided on a new name for my blog because I’m not a fan of the one I currently have. The younger me had no taste😂😅. But yeah, the 300 followers one was a huge surprise because I just came back from a hiatus🎉. Other than that, I haven’t been up to much except school 🤸‍♀️.
        A very handy skill indeed😛😂.
        I enjoyed answering them too💖.

        1. Exactly!
          Haha I know – we invited close to 400 but that’s how many we expect to attend. We’ll see! And thank you!
          Ah, congratulations on hitting 300 followers! That’s super exciting. ❤ HA, I feel you on old blog names. I've been wanting to change mine for a while yet. Yay, school… hehe. Well thanks for the update! I always enjoy hearing from you. 🙂

          1. Oh Ok God willingly everything goes well on the day🎉.
            Thank you so much. I plan on keeping the new name for as long as I blog. Have you decided on a new name yet?
            I always enjoy hearing from you too💖.

            1. That’s what I’m praying too!
              Sounds like a plan! I think I’ll change my blog’s name to something like “Allison Marie” if I can find an available URL.

  4. This is awesome! I will definitely use some of these questions! And the artwork is lovely!
    I hope the wedding planning is going well. I know that wedding planning can be stressful (not saying out of experience; I just have a very large extended family and have been to many weddings and helped with many weddings) :). I will be praying that all the details come together quickly and easily!

    1. Woohoo! Glad you enjoyed, Ellie.
      It is definitely stressful at times but can also be quite fun. 😀 I finally got my invitations sent which is a relief, haha. Now I’m excited for some upcoming bridal showers! Thank you so so much for your prayers. It’s so neat that you’ve gotten to attend and help out with so many weddings!
