Bachelor-Oh MY

On Monday it is my guilty pleasure to watch the Bachelor. I think I watch it to say what in the world is that girl doing. Sometimes  I feel so bad for some of these girls because they look so crazy on TV.. Last nights Recap….OMG what was going on with the AShley's last night… I think they have lost their minds and yet he keeps them.. This is when you think that the show makes him keep girls to keep the drama going and for views.. I know that there are so many things stage but in the end I really hope that Chris can find love.. I wish that they would make the dates for REAL instead of dates that are so far fetch that you would never do. I would fall in love with anyone if I was going on all these crazy amazing dates.. What was your thoughts last night?? Who is your fav?

He is such a cutie :) 

After last night I still like Whitney and I liked Jade

What was wrong with the Ashley's last night…….

And Kesley……….

Happy Friday Everyone!!!

1) How many of you girls use a wifi camera card? Do you like it? Which one do you use? I am looking at getting one and not sure on which one to get..

2)I am so excited Spring is coming soon.. I love all the bright colors and the weather in Spring.. Here are my must haves….from J Crew Factory

3) I am not a huge huge fan of Pro Football.. I love College Football so much but I will be watching the Super Bowl with some friends and I really love the Super Bowl for all the yummy food :) Here are some things I am going to make and take with me to the party!!!

4) My husband and I have been talking a lot about needing a bigger house and so I have been looking at ton of pictures of what I envision my new house looking like. We need a bigger house as Lily Jane gets better we want her to have more space to move and we need an additional bedroom when we do decided to have baby #2.. Here is some inspirations I have found lately… A girl can DREAM Right :)

5) Essie Matte Gray Nails. Sometimes I like to try new things and I totallty went for it.. The gray was classic, but the matte finish was unconventional. I thought hey I want to try this… While playing around i came across this Essie  "Matte About You' Finisher" and I thought I have to have that.. It takes your nails from high-hlogss to matte in seconds. I bought Essie "Chincilly" which I think was the perfect shade of gray. I painted my nails with one base coat and then 2 coats of  gray. Then painted the matte finish and volia!

Weekend Rewind

Love having today off for MLK..This past weekend I went on a Bachlorette trip to St. Augustine and it was such a fun weekend but was so excited to get home and see my mini :) On Friday we drove down there and we got settled into the beach house we rented and all met each other and had dinner and talked to get to know each other.. Saturday I woke up and was so excited that we had a house on the beach so I got up and ran 2 miles which I was so proud of my self it took a lot to get up while all the other girls were sleeping..It was well worth it. Saturday we then went shopping at the outlets and then went to eat at the Colombia (a great restaurant) and walked around downtown St. Augustine.. I love little historical towns :) Then Saturday night we went out and bar hopped.. I must be getting old because I can't hang like i use tooo... at 12:00 I was ready to go home haha but made it to 2 am... Then Sunday we got up and headed home I was so sad to leave the beach but so excited to see my hubby and mini.. We also went looking at houses because hopefully we will be moving into a bigger home soooooon.....So happy that we get Monday off for MLK that we are taking Lily Jane to the ZOOO..... Happy Monday!!!!
