Thanks to my wonderful husband, I get to relive my very first concert on February 18th!!! I have been obsessed with George Strait since I saw him at the Iowa State fair in 2nd grade. While most 8 year-olds were worshipping New Kids On The Block and the Spice Girls…I was sitting in our loft memorizing every line to Pure Country and falling in love with Dusty, George's fictional character. I was a cool kid, I know. Anyway, I haven't seen George in concert since the fair and I'm so excited to ...
67 Days
That's all Brittany Bruns has left as a single lady! I told her I would make it my responsibility to remind her of the daily countdown (as if she didn't know--she's the most organized person ever)…so there you go! Anyway, I just wanted to share a few pictures from Saturday's festivities! It was SO much fun to have everyone together and to celebrate the upcoming wedding of the nussie Bruns and dudebro Carter. (I'm sure I just misused those adjectives, but it's the thought that counts--so ...
Something exciting happened this week…
I was about a mile from home, sitting at a stop light when I saw something awesome…the truck in front of me had powercat stickers on the windows and a ksu alumni license plate. You see, when I wear my k-state gear to the gym I get some pretty funny looks and I've come to the conclusion that these silly Illinois fans have never even heard of my alma mater. SO, you can imagine how excited I was to see a fellow fan in front of me at the stoplight. And what did I do, you might ask? When the ...
The Best Gift
I've been thinking a lot lately about my family and I've come to one conclusion…being an aunt is the best gift ever. 4 years ago I had no idea that I would have 2 amazing nieces and a perfect little nephew…and I definitely had no idea I would be so head over heels for all of them. Maren is, well…she's just Maren. She's 3 going on 17 and is the single most hilarious and entertaining person I know. Everyone that meets her loves her and there's no wonder why. Then there's Norah. She is the ...
Fearsome Foursome
I'm sure Chris is going to tell me this is a lame title for this post, but whatever…I like it. :) Anyway, we are so ridiculously excited because Adam and Whitney are coming to visit this weekend!!! So what's on the agenda you might ask? Hmmm, I don't know…we might watch the #9 team in the nation lay the smack down on OSU on Saturday. Maybe. Okay, obviously joking! Right now, the plan is to fix some tailgate favorites on our new grill---the most awesome wedding gift ever from Adam, Whit, ...
Wowza!
Every city has them. I'm talking about the cheesy, over-the-top, local commercials. One that comes to mind from my hometown would be Hap Hazzard in Ooooooooolathe! Well folks, Hap's got nothing on Becky, of Becky's Carpet and Tile Superstore in St. Louis. She's half body-builder, half Joan Rivers...and most of the time she flies around on a magic carpet. Can't beat that! Oh, and the best part (free, free, free, free, free) is creepily similar to "Obey my dog" from the classic movie, ...
