He's My Love :)

I saw this on Whitney's blog and decided to join in the fun.

The hubs, Ryan:

He's watching TV... what's he watching? He is a reality TV show junkie. Lately his favs are Judge Judy, The Bachelor (my fault), and American Idol, plus he watches Criminal Minds.
You're out to eat... what kind of dressing does he get on his salad? None, he doesn't eat salad.
What's one food he doesn't like? Well the the shorter answer would be listing what he does like. He does not eat a single vegetable! He is missing out.
You're out for a drink... he orders: Bud Light
Where did he go to high school? Oakville HS
What size shoe does he wear? 12
Does he have any tattoos? Nope
If he were to collect anything, it would be....? Coolie cups, yes seriously he does.
What is his favorite type of car? Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, lifted of course.
He could eat ______ everyday? Pizza
Favorite cereal? Honey Nut Cheerios
He wouldn't be caught dead wearing....? Well he really would wear anything for a laugh, he has a shirt that is aqua blue and says "Pool Boy" it is awful.
What is his sign? Aquarius
What is something I do that he wishes I wouldn't do? He wishes I would not let work stress me out, I am trying, really I am.
How many states has he lived in? One
What is his heritage? He told me Irish and German, so I will have to go with that.
You bake him a cake for his birthday. What kind does he want? He really does not like cake so he gets a cookie cake (basically a huge chocolate chip cookie) with "Happy Birthday Ryan" written on it in icing.
Did he play sports in high school or college? Ice hockey, roller hockey and golf in HS.
He could spend hours....? Working outside in the yard, he loves it out there.
What is your favorite thing about him? I know it may sound cliche, but he is really my best friend and he brings out the best in me. I am so thankful for him

I'm a crazy bag lady...


I have been tagged (http://www.threeladiesandadad.com/) to reveal the purse that I am carrying. And here it is. First off, I am obsessed with purses. I LOVE them! I could buy a new one everyday. I always buy fun ones that I find on sale, well until this past Sunday. I have been eyeing this one since around Christmas. It costs a pretty penny and I kept convincing myself that I could not spend the money on this purse. On Sunday I had a moment of weakness. I was walking through Macy's getting a gift for my friend's birthday and just told myself, "What the heck, I work hard, I deserve to buy something nice for myself!" So I DID it, I paid $298.00 for ONE purse! Now I am feeling guilty. I am questioning if this was the best choice. I know that I really do want one really nice purse, but is this the one? I now possibly have a case of buyer's remorse.
It is ironic that I was tagged to blog about this because here is how my conversation with my husband with last night:
Me: "Babe, so I bought a purse that costs $300.00."
Ryan: [laughing] "Is it the one that have been talking about for two months?"
Me: "Umm, yes. But, now I feel like I should maybe return it ."
Ryan: "Why? You deserve to splurge once in a great while."
Me: "Well it is not just the money, I was looking on the Coach website yesterday and they are coming out with new stuff and I saw one I really like too. Maybe I should have waited?"
Ryan: "Why don't you just go look at the new stuff with your new one and then you will know which one you like best, side by side. This way you won't second guess yourself after that."
Me: [smiling] "Maybe I should just get both?"
Ryan: "I don't think so."
So this is where I will be after work. Wish me luck I will let you know how it goes.
I am supposed to tag some other ladies to showcase their bags, but I only know a few people on here and Alaina you already tagged them. I guess that means I need to get some blogger friends. :)

Giveaways are the BEST!


My friend Alaina is doing a giveaway on her blog for Lisa Leonard designs. If you have not checked out her stuff you NEED to, everything is super cute and there is something for everyone.




Check out Alaina's blog for details.



My favorite is this one I have above. This is not the one for the giveaway, Alaina has that one on her page. I actually emailed this one to my husband as big HINT HINT, but I never received it. :( My guess is he has no idea how to order jewelry online, because he is usually so good at remembering my hints.

One Day I Will Be Good At This....

I just wanted to say that I apologize that I probably have the most boring ever. I always have so many ideas and things I want to blog about, but when they come up I have no time to sit down and blog, and then I forget later what I really wanted to say. I do love reading other blogs though! One day I will get it together. :)
