How Pinteresting

Linking up again with Michelle at the Vintage Apple for another edition of it's Pinteresting

This seems to be how my week is going....

A little O-State pride...

You caught me...

Word.

Happy Wednesday!

A little reality TV

My thoughts EXACTLY

Just a few things that are really of no importance.

Like reality tv. I LOVE my reality tv.

I have not watched the Bachelor all season. Just wasn't really feeling the whole Ben as the Bachelor thing...and from the sound of it, I am not missing much except for that crazy Courtney chick, which watching her would drive me crazy anyway.

However, I am very excited to watch the Bachelorette with Emily. 

Loved her on Brad's season!

Another reality show that I like but didn't watch the last couple of times is Dancing with the Stars...this year though. I will be watching if only for the reason that Steve Urkel himself is going to be on the show.





Now if we could get Uncle Jesse from Full House and maybe Shawn Boy Meets World to join, then it's like a whole TGIF reunion.





Friday night TV was the bomb.com

Oh those were the days of wholesome TV, where every Friday night episode taught you right from wrong.

This and That

Hello lovelies!

It's Monday...and my mind and body are still in my warm comfy bed...so, this post is all sorts of random.

Sometimes I feel like I am a bad doggy mom. I mean, I am gone for a good 8 or more hours Monday through Friday...just like most people, and when I get home, I get so caught up in eating dinner and doing other things that I feel like I neglect my dog babies. I am sure this feeling will be 100 times worse when I have kids...so I should work on this.

This weekend, I vowed to spend more time with my doggies and made sure to play with them. I even gave them baths. Have you ever given a basset hound a bath? 

It's not easy.

Here are my cute little clean fur babies...

I saw this the other day and it couldn't be more true

I just love those two dogs!

I have been a MAJOR slacker on working out. I was sick a couple of weeks ago and was out for like a week straight and couldn't work out. Well, I don't know about y'all but being sick and getting out of your work out routine sucks. It's SO hard to to get back into one.

But no excuses anymore, because I have like 80 something days until my trip and I want to look good in the swimsuit pictures. 

All my fitness ladies...what does a girl need to do to get in shape FAST. Like 80 something days fast. I need to drop some lbs and tone up. I got the diet down...but it's the fitness part. More cardio and strength training? What are some great ab exercises?

Help a sister out!

xoxo

Happy Friday

Happy Friday, y'all!

I couldn't be more excited that it's Friday, my favorite day of the week....the only thing more exciting then it being Friday, is

I'm going to 

That's right...flights were booked and us girls are taking a trip of a lifetime. SO EXCITED!!!

Miss Football and I 

and Miss Football's friend Kristin

are taking a girls trip to COSTA RICA!

So...this means that I have a little less than 4 months to get my booty into shape.

Better put the Mocha Drizzle and cookie down and start Operation Costa Rica bikini body.

If you have been before, what are the "must see" places? We have some pretty cool things lined up already, zip-lining, touring the volcano and hot springs, para-sailing, but if there is more to do please let us know...we want to make the best of this trip and soak in all Costa Rica has to offer.

Have a great Friday and weekend!

Bucket list

Hey girls!

It's been one of THOSE weeks. If I don't take a vacation soon, I may go crazy. Actually, I think planning a vacation is what is making me go crazy...but more on that little diddy later.

Like I said I am in the process of planning a pretty kick-ass trip with some potential of being able to cross some items off the ol' bucket list....

So, I thought I should  introduce to you, my bucket list.

What are your items on your bucket list?

Oh, the things I say

I got a blonde joke for you.

I am actually telling on myself here, something I didn't want to do on this little ol' blog...but I thought that I am doing a disservice to y'all by not fully being my random thought saying self.

It's kinda embarrassing on my part, but hey..it's me.

So, today I give you words spoken by yours truly.

Patients husband: Do you know what Evian spelled backwards is?
Me: I don't even know how to spell it forwards.
(It's Naive btw)

Now, before you think I am crazy and don't know geography or sense of time...I had a brief moment of complete and total blondness and right after it came out of my mouth...I knew what I had said.

Last night I was telling my mom how I was emailing someone who lives in Sweden and that it was 3:00 in the afternoon here and he said he was going to bed. I told her it was like 10:45pm there.

My mom: Yes, so that's about a seven hour time difference.
Me: I know, can you believe it only takes seven hours to get there, you would think it would take longer.

And then my friends, my mom practically fell out of her chair from laughter. I realized what I had said and had tears rolling down my face.

It's nice to be able to laugh at your own stupidity sometimes, right?

If that's the case, I should be in Sweden by 6:00 pm tonight.

Better get to trucking.

Oh, hey

Gooood Morning y'all.

Hope every one's weekend was wonderful...I had a fun but relaxing weekend....first off, on Friday I went to see my future husband, Jake Owen. O.M.G....I knew he was hott, but in person he's like 10x as hott.

True. Story.

These pictures don't really do him justice and they are kinda blurry...because I like to dance and it's apparent dancing and trying to take pictures at the same time do not go hand in hand.

Saturday my mom and I had a spa day. I made us some homemade face masks from Avocado and honey...I think they were supposed to look like this

but ours looked nothing like that...I may have used to much honey and not enough avocado. All in all though it worked pretty well, our faces were very smooth afterwards. 

We dipped our hands in paraffin wax. That stuff is AMAZING...here is a DIY recipe for it

• 1 block paraffin wax (about 4 oz), you can find this in the canning sections of your local grocery store.
• an ounce of oil
• 20 drops of essential oil... lavender is rather nice
• a few drops of olive oil or coconut oil (you will use this to coat your hands)
• a casserole dish, greased with oil
• plastic sandwich bags

I bought two new nail polish color's this weekend...I am in the springy color mood...

Essie, Cute as a button

and then Essie's Turquoise and Caicos

Also got a new Keurig flavor this weekend...which is in the cup you see in the background, Caramel Drizzle...that stuff is the bomb.com. Seriously.

After I took this picture I then proceeded to knock my cup over and spilled half of it.

Which is nothing out of the ordinary for me, I spill everything.

Sunday my mom and I went and saw, "This means war"

Adorable movie...I loved it, I mean who doesn't love Reese Witherspoon? If I was dating two CIA agents who looked they did, I certainly wouldn't complain.

All in all, I would say I had a great weekend.

Also...a little breaking news...I have 100 FOLLOWERS!!!! 

Woo hoo!!

I think this calls for a giveaway, no?

I'll be thinking of some ideas.

Much love!
