The 29-year-old said that being with the Hollywood superstar brings constant thrills and joy, adding that there"s always a surprise element around Cruise.

"Oh, we have so much fun. Tom has introduced me to so many new experiences. I have done things I never thought I would do, like climbing mountains and flying in the P-51. That's what is so inspiring about being with him – constant thrills and joy," Contactmusic quoted her, as telling Parade magazine in an interview.

The Dawson"s Creek star said that she was looking forward to spending the holidays cooking and skiing in Telluride, Colorado, with family. "We love cooking… I"m a huge fan of pie, especially pecan.
