getting to know me...day 2

Question 2. Where are your favorite places to shop?

Answer 2. For shoes, hands down my favorite place is Dillard's. I LOVE their shoes! I haven't bought any for quite some time because, hello, my husband is in the throes of college but every time we go to the mall I make him walk through there so I can breathe in the smell and see the little lovelies. I'm pretty sure they have to wipe the shoes down after I leave because I drool all over them. For everything else, I don't know that I really have a favorite. I used to love American Eagle and I still do, but I am not quite as obsessed with them as I once was.

Fact 1. In shoe relations...when I got married at one of my bridal showers they played a question and answer game. One question was how many pairs of shoes I had. I can't remember but it was over 70. I had no idea! I still have pretty much all of them too. I don't remember the last time I threw out a pair of shoes. Until...a couple of weeks ago I donated a few that I just never seem to wear anymore. It made me unrealistically sad. Then a couple of days ago I wanted to one of the pairs and I forgot I donated it. Then I got all sad all over again. Sigh...

getting to know me, getting to know all about me

Has anyone out there seen The King and I? If so, that title will make sense to you. If not, get yoself out the door and rent that movie! It's pretty much great (if you like musicals, cheesy acting, and happiness). I was nominated by a friend of mine named Mollie for the Liebster Award. She reads my private blog. I am pretty sure I did it last year there, so I thought I'd do it this year here. I'm going to change things up a bit and do one question a day (or so) because I tend to get wordy and the post would be forevvvvver long. I figure it might be a good way to get to know me anyhow! You are supposed to write 11 facts about yourself and then answer 11 questions posed to you by the nominator. I tend to get a little wordy so I figured I'd answer a question or two a day and give you a fact or two as well. Then this post won't be so long!

Question 1. What is one item you cannot live without?

Answer 1. This is sort of a hard one I think. My brain keeps thinking about like a hair or makeup product because that is what I always hear. But I don't really feel all that attached to things like that. I would have to say my blanket. Wow. I just realized I am such a little kid! But seriously, I can't fall asleep without a blanket tucked underneath my cheek. It just doesn't work. And if I can't sleep, then I'll die right? So I literally cannot live without that thing.

Fact 1. I am almost 7 years younger than my hubby.

Tell me about you! I'd love to hear little tidbits.

4th of July

It's a little late, but Happy Independence Day! I am so thankful to live in this wonderful country.

Did you do anything fun? We went camping with my parents and had a blast. We also ate extremely well! I was absolutely stuffed. We just went one night. The little man didn't want to sleep in his portable crib so he slept with us, meaning he got tons of sleep and we didn't get any. Oh well, he is cute so it's ok :)

We played a game called Kubb that we made (I'll post a tutorial soon) that was so much fun! You all need to make it and play it as soon as you possibly can.
