Formerly Known as Favorite Fridays

This fun blog party is hosted by the fabulous Jen feel free to join in and share the highlights of your week or plans for the weekend  :)

As for me, my week has been pretty average. We had some baby stuff happen: our last childbirth class, which included a tour of Labor and Delivery on Monday; the usual weekly appointment at the doctor's; and our crib arrived! Please excuse the glare, the overhead light is so harsh in there, we're working on a solution for that this weekend as well as finishing decorating the nursery! :)

I swear my life has become mostly baby focused these days, sorry guys...

In other news, my parents will be in town this weekend for the 'Noles game. But it happens to be Parents Weekend so they have tons of events to attend to with my brother and his fraternity (yep, my entire family either attends or graduated from FSU). Hopefully the weather will be nice and we can join them at the football game Saturday, I hate that we keep having noon games, it's just too hot!

This time last year, when I met up with them after work at the Downtown Getdown
(the city shuts down the streets downtown for a party on Friday when there's a home game).

Hope you have a great weekend 

& GO NOLES!

Favorite Fridays!

This week's Favorite Friday topic is:

Fall Television Show(s)!

Parenthood

I watched one episode last season and became addicted.

It's on NBC Tuesday nights at 10pm, and just started back this past week!

AND

Desperate Housewives

I've watched since the beginning and will be a loyal viewer until the end.
I can honestly say I can't wait until September 26th!

Favorite Fridays

This week's topic is: Way to De-Stress!

Mine has got to be having a pedicure and leaving my phone in the car!
Nothing like a relaxing pedicure with no distractions, and a nice drink.

Except now it's Shirley Temples for me :)

Oh and you aren't mistaken, that's a bar on the right... liquor or wine with your pedicure or manicure, yes please! This local place has pedicures services with fun names like Pedi on the Beach, Toe-Tini, Detox on the Rocks, and Mint Julep. It's a pretty neat concept.

What’s your favorite way to de-stress?

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?

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 :)

Finally... it's Friday!

Questions for Friday, May 28th:
1. Is there something you've always wanted to try but just can't muster up the courage to actually do yet?Skydiving! I've seen my friends' pictures and videos, it looks awesome. But I've seen so many of those "Most Shocking Videos" or "I Can't Believe I'm Alive" shows with people skydiving that it freaks me out!
2. If you had $100 handed to you in cash without your significant other knowing about it, what would you spend it on?
Myself, either clothes or some new makeup...
3. What was your favorite piece of playground equipment as a child?
I loved the monkey bars :)
4. Do you prefer a sweet or hearty breakfast?
It depends on my mood that morning. Sometimes I love blueberry bagel with strawberry cream cheese or some tasty French toast. But other days I would love an egg on toast or some savory crepes.
5. Are you a Neat Freak or a Messy Bessy?
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...

Have a great holiday weekend yall!

TGIF!

Time for some fun Friday Memes to kick-off the weekend!---------------------------------------

Here's the rules, copy the questions and answer them on your blog then link back up over at Mama M's place and check out everyone elses answers!

1. Do you have an iPhone and, if so, how do you get apps and what are your favorites?

No iPhone for me, Adam has one but I'm still on my parents plan which isn't AT&T. I do have an iTouch and my favorite app is Pandora! I love it!
2. What is your fondest memory of K-3rd grade?

I had the BEST kindergarden teacher! We hatched butterflies in our classroom, it was a lot of fun and on of the best memories. In 2nd & 3rd grade we moved cities and I went to a private school, I loved having field day with water balloons and slip-n-slide each year, and the fact we had the best lunch days (arbys, mcdonalds, pizza hut, etc).

3. What makes you cringe at the thought of touching?

I'm pretty daring and nothing really phases me as long as I have gloves on!
4. If you could have any celebrity show up on your doorstep who would it be and why?

I would love to hangout with Nicole Richie, she seems so much more normal now that she's had her kids. I think it would be fun to have lunch with her and chat!

And a reality celeb I would to have over would be Bethanny from RHNY :)

5. What would you say is your best physical feature?

I've been told I have really nice calves but random strangers, haha. But I love my eyes, they change colors between shades of grey, green, and blue.
