well, he's only 4 months so most of the time after his early morning feeding he comes snuggles with me until we get up:)

not super late night, usually my shows end by 11pm, haha.

5 Question Friday

It's been a hot minute since I've participated in Five Question Friday, here's this week's questions

1. What do you listen to while driving?
On the way to and from work it's, K-Love. I love this radio station, it's awesome and perfect way to have some worship time with God on the way to work. Trips out of town are reserved for CDS and ipods. I have a variety, everything from country to techno and everything in between, haha. On my last trip I listened to some old CDs from highschool that had some lovely 90s hits. I swear they used to make music better back then.
2. What is your least favorite thing about Fall?
Cooler weather and football season. That's about it, we don't get much of a fall here in Florida.
3. What does your dream house look like, inside and out?
Outside, something like this:

Inside looks like it belongs in Southern Living
4. Would you ever own a minivan?
No thanks, I would love an SUV though.
5. Do you wash new clothes before wearing them?
Not usually unless the look a tad too big.

Finally Friday!

This weeks Favorite Fridays topic is:

Healthy Snack

My favorite healthy snack is...

Hummus and Pita Chips :)

Specifically this flavor and these chips!

I also love carrots with dill veggie dip, but I'm not sure that's exactly healthy since the loads of sour cream that are in the dip, maybe if it's reduced fat it might be a little healthier.   What's your favorite healthy snack? Post about it and link up over at Jen's blog, A Girl in Pearls & A Boy with Toys   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

1. What were your school colors?

In high school we were Green, Gold, and White...Wildcats let's fight!

In college we were Garnet & Gold! Let's Go Noles! :)

2. What's the best compliment you ever received?

You made my day!

3. Do you buy cheap or expensive toilet paper?

I am a Cottonelle or Quilted Northern gal so whichever of the two is cheaper.

4. Have you ever had a surprise party thrown for you? Or have you had one for someone else?

I was given a sweet 16 surprise party :)

5. What is one material possession that you "can't live without"?

Phone, it basically does everything.

5 Question Friday: July 16th

It is Friday that means it's time for Mama M's Five Question Friday! Head on over to My Little Life and link up!

Questions for Friday, July 16th:

1. Do you collect anything?
I used to collect stamps in elementary and middle school. Now I collect shot glasses from when I travel. 

2. Name 3 celebrities that you find good looking.
-Ryan Reynolds
-Paul Walker
-Steven Moyer

3. Do you have any scars? If so, what's the story behind it (them?)?
I have a lot, I was such a tomboy and still always ready for an adventure! But one has an interesting story...I was cut by a barb-wire fence my senior year of high school on my ankle. My high school bf and some friends had jumped the fence at a farm to get to these limestone caves. The old guy that lived there had carved stairs into them and you could walk through them and there was a little creek in one of the caves. Anyways after spending an hour or so exploring the caves we headed back. Well, the lights were on at the house whose yard we had to cut through so we either had to crawl army style or make a run for it. I made a run for it and ended up getting my ankle caught in the barb-wire fence. I still think it was worth it though, those caves were amazing!

4. What is a food that you like to eat, but others might think it's gross or weird?
I guess SUSHI :) I love it, some people find it strange.

5. Have you ever seen a tornado in real life?
Nope, but I was just talking about this at work yesterday... weird.

TGIF Yall!

Yall know I love my Friday BlogHops! Join in and play along, just click on the button for each one :)

This weeks topic is Favorite Celeb Couples who didn't make it :(

I was gonna go with the obvious answer... Brad and Jen but I decided to go with...

NICK and JESSICA!

After Britt & JT split these were THE couple of the pop world.

I really wanted them to make it, I think their show killed there chance of lasting love.

Runner-Up:  Guy Richie & Madonna, Reese Witherspoon &Ryan Phillippe, Shanna Moalker & Travis Barker (another breakup probably due to the reality show)

Who would you pick?

Now onto Five Question Friday!

1. Do you know how to play a musical instrument?

Yep, I can play the piano. I started taking lessons when I was 6 years old. I can read sheet music and play by ear, I love it! I used to play random songs on the piano in hotels when we would take family trips haha

2. What is your pet peeve while driving?

People who are to busy texting or talking on the phone to pay attention when the light changes. Oh and people who don't use turn signals when they are turning, it's very annoying!

3. Would you rather have a housekeeper or unlimited spa services?

unlimited spa services, I enjoy cleaning, yes I'm one of those weird people.

4. Is there a song that you hear that will take you back to the moment, like a junior high or high school dance?

I remember when booty dancing first started and anything by Lil Jon and The Eastside Boyz was always requested in highschool. I swear I will be perfectly fine if I never hear "Bia Bia" and "Get Low" again :)

5. What song best represents your life right now?

Since I'm about to go on vacation and hangout with the family on the beach, I'm going to go with No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems, Nothing screams summer like some good ol' Kenny Chesney :)

QUESTIONS FOR JUNE 18th:

1. What is your favorite thing about summertime?

It's more relaxed, even though I work year-round and don't have a 'summer' we still slow down enough to enjoy a more laid back couple of months. I also love the fact we have more daylight. I would say sunshine and the weather but it's Florida and 97 degrees is the norm, it's too hot to enjoy the weather haha.

2. What is your ideal retirement location (if money didn't matter)?

The beach, a peaceful spot either in the Bahamas or on Crescent Beach (my fav beach that I've spent every summer as far as I can remember).

Nope, I live in the same town I went to college in. But I have recently contemplated moving back to my hometown, you never know.

Hope everyone is having a great Friday! Mine's not too bad, I'm def ready for the weekend though... nothing special going on just looking forward to relaxing and might head to the beach before the oil gets here. By the way, pray for us states on the gulf, our coast are about to get destroyed. I wish they could cap this oil, it's becoming such a disaster. Please vote NO to off shore drilling if it ever comes up on your ballots, this mess is terrible for fisherman, businesses that rely on tourist, and all our sealife. On a lighter note, the World Cup start next week and here's how they are kicking it off in South Korea...

I am a neat freak, I can't leave my house if everything isn't in it's place. Same goes for my office. Everything has a 'home' and it should be placed there. But don't look in my closet it's complete chaos at the present moment...

3. Have you ever had stitches?
nope, but probably needed them a few times.

Lifeguard at a waterpark for 3 summers. Best job ever! When I was there we had American Flag bathing suits, I remember drunk guys coming up and saying the pledge to me. I still have them in a box at my parent's house and my rescue pack. This is a current picture, they re-did the park and some of the rides that were my favorite were removed because they were too dangerous. Haha Those were the days :)
