Here are this week's questions:

1. Did you live in the same town or move around a lot as a child?

2. What were your parents like?

3. Do you have any siblings? What were they like growing up?

4. Share a short story from your childhood.

5. What did you look like? (share a picture for your chance to win a prize)

I LOVE these questions!! Read on and link up amigos!


1. Did you live in the same town or move around a lot as a child?

We moved...A LOT! My parents were active duty military and we seriously never lived anywhere longer than a year. I loved it though! I lived in amazing places like Spain and Panama and was able to travel the world at a young age. Plus it helped me become adaptable to new surroundings and totally NOT SHY! ha!

2. What were your parents like?

My parents divorced when I was really young, so its hard for me to remember them together, but as long as I can remember, my Mom has always been loving and protective. She was always playing with us, not just watching. She was the kind of mom who had a snack waiting when we got home and couldn't wait to hear all about out day. She was involved in every aspect of our lives and always did whatever she had to do to protect us and provide us with the best life she could. She is the woman I strive to be. She's been my example every day of my life.


3. Do you have any siblings? What were they like growing up?

Oh heck yes I do. Steps, halves, wholes...you name them, I've got them! There are 6 of us total and we have been a crazy brood since day 1. I'm talking duct taping each other to trees, tying each other to vacuums, popping water beds, and much much more. Seriously I can't even begin to explain the insanity we've caused....and STILL cause!!


4. Share a short story from your childhood.

Crap. I'm not good at 'short'. But one time we were on a road trip with my Dad and the rest of the brood. I couldn't have been more than 8 years old, and I accidentally popped a ranch packet ALL OVER my Dad's killer black jeans and matching jean jacket in the middle of a McDonalds! He was SO ticked that his fashionable ensemble was ruined...I mean he looked like a bad splatter paint shirt! Remember those?! And the madder he got, the louder my brothers and sister laughed. I, on the other hand, was terrified for my life. I'm pretty sure my Dad is STILL mad about that.


5. What did you look like? (share a picture for your chance to win a prize)

So much attitude for such a little thing! Some things never change....


Happy Wednesday Amigos!

Fire and Desire...rawr!!

It's the small things that Jordan does that lets me know how much he loves me. Like making me smoothies because he knows I'm running late, or making dinner because he knows I've had a crazy day...or....OR...he leaves me sweet little love notes like this...

{He's so romantic...*swoon*}

The man yields his dry erase marker like a sword...
fighting for our love.

Hand off ladies. This one's all mine.

Happy Friday Amigos!!


Have a fabulous weekend!

We Want To Know Q&A Week 17 +++

Holy crapballs, how is it Wednesday already?? This week is flying by! But you know what that means....It's game time friends! So join me and my fabulous co-host, Mamarazzi, and play along. This week the questions are brought to you by yours truly! No pressure. I'll only cry myself to sleep if you don't play. *sigh* So go on and link up....all the cool kids are doing it.

1. If you could be on any game show what would it be?

2. If you could stay any certain age forever, what would it be?

3. What were you doing 30 minutes ago?

4. What would I find in your fridge right now?

5. If you were a piece of furniture what would you be? Why?



Let's get the party started! Read on my friends...read on.


1. If you could be on any game show what would it be?

WHEEL OF FORTUNE!!! Hands down. I'm so good at that show, its scary. I'm so humble about it too. In fact, I've applied 4 TIMES....no joke. Still waiting for the phone call....Pat Sajak, I'm talking to YOU! Let's make that big money happen baby!


2. If you could stay any certain age forever, what would it be?

28, the age that I am now. Only because I can't imagine not having my kids or seeing them exactly the way they are. Plus I'm legal enough to do all the fun stuff, but still young enough that I'm looking GOOD. Not that I'm vain or anything, because I totally am I'm totally not.

3. What were you doing 30 minutes ago?

30 minutes ago I was watching a bulldog ride a rocking horse.....it was friggin AMAZING. Thank you America's Got Talent for proving to me that my dogs are good at being cushion smushers and that's about it! And I'm not talking about the kind of smushing that happens on Jersey Shore. Blech.


4. What would I find in your fridge right now?

A case of Red Bull, of course. Bacon...its a staple in this family. Tons of cheese, that I can't eat. And tons of fruits and veggies! For the guinea pig, not the kids. That's just crazy.


5. If you were a piece of furniture what would you be? Why?

Well, you can cross off the toilet for sure. Initially I thought I'd want to be the phone, because I'm nosy and I'd be able to hear everything! Juicy! But you know what? I'd rather be my kids night-nights....their ratty baby blankets that they snuggle when they're sleepy, cuddle when their sad, and sleep with every night. I'd love to be that source of comfort. Crap...I just realized that a blanket really isn't furniture. So yeah, I'd be the phone!

I'm Baaaaccckkkkk

I'd try and explain the insane amount of awesomeness that occurred at Blogher in San Diego this last weekend...but I can't just do it justice. In fact, I'm still recovering. It was that crazy! But I'll tell you one thing...I am most definitely saving up my pennies so that I can go again next year. NYC here I come! Hopefully....maybe....if I can buy the ticket without Jordan noticing sweet talk Jordan into it.

The people were AMAZING, the food was grub (they had gluten free/allergy friendly food!), the parties were a dang good time and holy swag.... free crap galore. We bloggers know how to do the dang thing!

{Snuggling with Gordy-poo at the Cheap Sally Party...}

{Me & Steph! Reunited and it feels so gooooood! LOVE HER!}

{My roomie and bloggy bestie, Kristin, hooking up with Mr. Reynolds...RAWR!}

{A battling unicorns CAKE! Yes! CAKE PEOPLE! FRIGGIN AWESOME!}

{Hanging with my Momo aka SurferWife...be still my heart...}

{Who doesn't love a good nipple tweaking? Harrison Ford does!}

{Don't mind the crazy face...Erin was trying to get me even crazier with some help from our friend, Caffeine. }

{Love love love Amanda! She's the cutest thing EVER! And yes. I did wear my pajamas to a party. Don't judge.}

These pictures were just the tip of the iceberg! I seriously almost piddled myself laughing while I was looking through the rest of them. Lets just say 'not family blog friendly'....but PERFECT for future blackmail!! Watch out amigos....you know who you are ;) **cough cough** kristin, monique, randy, meaghan **cough cough**


Have an awesome day my dears, and make sure you come by tomorrow and link up for We Want To Know Wednesdays!

PEACE.

Hanging out with trash in San Diego!

Best. Time. Ever.

Free Crap. Amazing friends. Swanky parties. Flashmobs.

Oh, and Oscar the Grouch.

BOOYA!!

I hope you all have an AMAZING weekend!

I'm off to party it up with the housewives of America...

It's about to get CUH-RAZY up in hurrrr...

It's that time of week again amigos! So saddle up and get to gettin'! Join Mamarazzi and I for another exhilarating round of We Want To Know Wednesday. This weeks questions are brought to you by the lovely Mamarazzi.

{1} If you could spend a day with a blogger, who you haven't met in real life, who would you choose?
{2} What website do you check first when you go online?
{3} What is something you are saving money for right now?
{4} What is your go to silly face when a silly face is needed? You know the face, that one you pull out when goofin' for the camera. (post a pic of it and be entered to win a prize from Mamarazzi)
{5} How do you relieve stress?

Grab a snack, relax, and enjoy the answers!

{1} If you could spend a day with a blogger, who you haven't met in real life, who would you choose?

Oh man, there are so many to choose from!! But lucky me, I'm leaving for Blogher tomorrow and I'll FINALLY get to meet some of my favorite bloggers and best bloggy buddies like Kristin, Monique aka SurferWife, and Blueviolet! Jealous?? You should be. Those ladies rock and I can't wait to give them a big ol' hug and party with them into the wee hours. Oh, and take pictures of them wasted and plaster them all over my blog. Because that's what friends are for. HUZZAH!

{2} What website do you check first when you go online?

Crap. This is the part where my inner nerd starts to come out. Every morning the first place I look is online at the Luann comic strip. (Insert you laughing at me here). I can't help it, I'm addicted. I've been reading it for YEARS! And after I've caught up on Luann, I get caught up on the daily world news....aka celebrity gossip. Ha!

{3} What is something you are saving money for right now?
Well I have been saving money for Blogher...does that count? I can't wait to go hit up the shops and the town with all the fabulous ladies that are sure to be there! This money is burning a hole in my pocket as we speak.

{4} What is your go to silly face when a silly face is needed? You know the face, that one you pull out when goofin' for the camera. (post a pic of it and be entered to win a prize from Mamarazzi and Queso)

It normally goes a little something like this...

{Holy unflattering Batman. See the things I do for you guys!}

{5} How do you relieve stress?

I've found that the best stress reliever is either beating the crap out of a truck with a bat (I may or may not speak from experience) or throwing a phone against the wall and shattering it to pieces. (once again, I may or may not speak from experience) But since The Hubs isn't too fond of those methods I normally go for a nice long workout and leave my stress at the gym. Works like a charm every time!

There ya have it folks. Now skedaddle and answer them so you can link up on the fun!

SurferWife has Eyedews and so do I.....

It's been non stop as always around here and sleep has been pretty much non existent. I feel like I've been rocking the whole 'insomniac-crack head' circles under the eyes all summer long, but NO MORE my friends...NO MORE! You know why? Because SurferWife has Eyedews....and Surferwife loves me and my puffy eyes enough to hook me up with some!

These things are like heaven in a foil package people! Let me break it down for you...Eyedews are these awesome little jelly under eye masks. They're blended with all sorts of amazing goodies for your face, like lavender oil, Vitamins C & E, Chitosan, and Natural Marine Collagen.


So say goodbye to those unwanted bags under your eyes, kiss off those fine lines, and erase the signs of stress with Eyedews! And the best part? They're SUPER easy to use. Just slap those puppies on for 15-20 minutes, relax, and let Eyedews do the rest! Plus, they're safe for everyday use...BONUS!

{A serious moment with my Eyedews...}

If you're going to Blogher11 make sure you track SurferWife down because she'll be giving out FREE samples of Eyedews. All you have to do is follow @SurferWife and meet up with her at Blogher. While you're at it, follow @Eyedews too!

I'm definitely taking mine with me to Blogher, because I'm fairly certain I'll be getting ZERO sleep. But I'll still be looking friggin fabulous thanks to my Eyedews!

PS- If you order 12 pairs of Eyedews for $45 now until the end of August you will receive 3 FREE pairs! Just simply mention the word Blogher in your order comment.
