Friday favorites 6

1) I was on my way home from the grocery store last night and decided to call my Grandma and see how she was doing. I get so so busy just with day to day crap that I often forget about staying in touch with my loved ones. So, I called her and she was, as she put it, flabbergasted. I was happy my call made her so happy, but I was saddened that she was so surprised I called. I love my family and I am thankful for them every single day. I talked to her for a half hour and it was great. I told her we needed to do lunch sometime. So one of my favorites was talking to my Grandma last night. This is a cute picture of my Grandma and Grandpa at their 60th anniversary dinner this year:

  

2) Ryan was asked to play in the faculty vs. students basketball game for his high school tonight. I seriously can't wait! First off, he is the most athletic person I know AND second...he is way hot when he plays sports. I am getting all sweaty just thinking about it. So, I am excited and I am going to take pictures tonight. I just need to remember my camera.

3) I just saw the preview to the remake of 21 Jump Street with Jonah Hill and Mr. Sexy as Hell Channing Tatum. I was laughing so hard when I was watching it. I will be seeing that as soon as it is in theaters. And I don't care if Channing isn't that great of an actor. As long as he keeps taking off his shirt in movies...then I will see every single movie he is in. Amen.

Rustic-ness

I am in love with rustic decor. My dream home would be a cabin. I love exposed wood and wooden beams. I love reclaimed wood. I have wanted a reclaimed wood kitchen table for FOREVER! And I am obsessed with a reclaimed wood accent wall. See these pictures below and you will get why I am stalker obsessed with wood. And by wood I mean wood from a tree...not a man. Pervs.

Monday likes and dislikes 16

Likes
- I like this new "lifestyle change" diet I am on. I have lost 7 pounds in about 2 weeks and I feel so much better! I feel healthier and more alive. I used to get that sluggish feeling and now I feel way more energized and happy. Plus I look better naked. I am starting to get less and less repulsed by my nakedness.

-Festival of Trees is coming up and I can't wait. You really should go! Take your kids or go with some friends. Its so much fun. Plus all the proceeds go to Primary Children's Medical Center. It's November 30th-December 3rd.

Dislikes
- Hang nails. They hurt and burn like a freaking bitch. I hate them. If I could murder hang nails all over the world...I would.

-Putting on a nice fresh pair of clean socks and having my toe pop out of a hole Molly has gladly chewed out of my sock. RIP socks.

-Going to the store, trying on the hip new cool jeans with deliberate holes in the knees. AND putting my foot all the way through the hole and ripping the leg to smithereens. Then hanging them back up like I didn't do anything and running from the store.

1) I discovered this amazing chap stick awhile back at my friends house. At first I was playing with it because I thought it was a toy. Then she tells me that is chap stick and magically opens it. I was amazed! I bought some at Walmart yesterday and it's been love ever since. Its called EOS and it's eco-friendly too!

2) These are my pumpkins from this year. My sweet brother Kason and his gf Ali made me the Little Monkey pumpkin and the painted monkey pumpkin. It made my night when they surprised me last week. I painted the itsy bitsy spider one for my baby and took it to the cemetery for him.

3) The other night playing a new game I learned called Turrets my brother Kason broke our kitchen chair while sitting on it and came crashing to the floor. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Does he look guilty in this picture? I think he does.

4) And finally. As I have mentioned before, Ryan and I are doing a Beauty and the Beast themed tree for Gabe this year for Festival of Trees. Belle loved reading books. The Beast gave her his humongous library as a surprise. The other day we were in Hobby Lobby and I saw this table I wanted to use as a side table next to the tree. It was made of books. I looked at the price tag and threw up in my mouth a little. It was $150! And then I realized it was on sale 30% off. Still, that was over $100. I tried to put it out of my mind and decided to just find something else in my price range. The next day Ryan woke up and said he was going to get some juice at the store. I was asleep still when he got home. He asked me to turn over and look at my cat Jasmine. She was sitting on top of that table! He had gone to the store and bought it for me. I of course freaked out and still cannot stop smiling. And I know Gabe is smiling too. I am so thankful for my wonderful thoughtful husband. I am a very lucky woman indeed.

Happy Halloween!

Here is my Halloween so far. And don't be afraid to tell me how absolutely stunning I am as a homeless man.
