wanna see something funny?

I'm pretty sure the first time I saw this commercial,

Kirk and I were rolling with laughter.

"Are we dipping skinny?"

real housewives.

I must confess that I have an unhealthy love for BRAVO tv and the television shows within.

Real Housewives of New Jersey and New York are currently my favs.

I love how they repeat the same episodes over and over again.

They play season after season.

It's A-MAZING.

BeBe has been getting into it too.

I sometimes watch Hannah Montana with her, she watches inappropriate drama with me.

It's wonderful.

I'm probably so obsessed with these shows because I want to live on the east coast.

These ladies are definitely absolutely crazy.

But the scenery is fabulous.

emptying the dishwasher.

BEEEEEBS.

She did NOT want to empty the dishwasher.

So she did it from the ground.

Hey, as long as the job gets done.

That is all.

the diet of champions.

Allow me to share with you what I gorged myself on today.

The day started off pretty alright with a piece of wheat toast con peanut butter and honey.

Then I went on to lunch which consisted of a bag of baked Lays and diet coke.

I proceeded to dinner and ventured off to the Safeway deli for a turkey and havarti panini. Then to Starbucks for a soy strawberry frapp.

I continued the evening babysitting where I ate a handful of bread.

After babysitting, I went to return a redbox at the grocery store where I bought 2 of those $1 ice creams that added up to about 500 calories.

I consumed those as a topping to the day.

And that my friends, is the diet of champions.

No, I am not pregnant. Nor am I mourning any sort of breakup or death.

Don't judge.

secrets.

NO no... I will not be sharing any secrets on here.

Lo siento. (sorry)

But, I will let you in on my new favorite song.

I knew I loved One Republic.

Enjoy.

graduated.

Natalia has graduated from 6th GRADE!

And let me tell you, they definitely made a celebration of it all.

Hooray for BEBE! So grown up.

Stop it!

bachelorette: new york

(Hello Chris L. You are sweet. I like you.)

- Fall in love around the world saga sounds a bit familiar. Jillian's season mayhaps?

- I want a makeover by InStyle. Ohhh, I really want that mint green dress.

- I want to be a stylist. That would be so fun.

- I want more clothes.

- I digress.

- I think it's funny how the guys sit around talking about other guys' connections with Ali. Do guys really do this?

- I'm enjoying Chris L. He seems realistic and a GUY'S GUY.

- Casey, you're a bit awkward. You seem nice. But, awkward. Don't sing with only one person in the audience. Whoops.

- Casey. You are coming on a little too strong. Poor guy. Dial it down a notch. It will happen for you.

- Bebe: "I feel like if they got married, Casey will secretly want to kill her."

- Don't cry.

- Weatherman... you are a funny person. Just being yourself is funny.

- Those spandex biking-shorts are hot.

- The singing bits are FUNNY. I heart them.

- Jesse WINS the singing. But apparently Roberto has it all. He is pretty fine.

- Jealous boys. Poor guys.

- "Weather forecast was for sunny skies, but then the storm opened up and crapped on my face." - Classy analogy weatherman.

- Why is your hair scraggly on that Broadway stage Ali

- "Beehive of knives in your face." Weatherman does it again.

- I still don't have a favorite on this show. I have a few favorites.

- Frank, Kirk, Chris and Roberto. In no particular order.

- All of these weather analogies. Dang.

- Supposebly? Ali... I learned in like 9th grade that wasn't a word.

- Chris L. is a winner. I think he's become my favorite.

- Ali's hair this entire episode is bad. I hope it's just because she is feeling "under the weather."

- The singing episode. Too many solo singers. Holy shiz.

- Justin. ALL liars try to divert the lying attention onto someone else. Although Casey is lying... calm the freak down. Wo is you.

- Ooops with the tattoo. 11 nails? My Brothers? The two crazies are made for each other.

- The candy was sweet. Just pretend you didn't get that tattoo. Casey.

- Ahhh... you kept Casey. Do you just feel bad for the guy?

- Jesse is CUTE. I'll get acreage with a bunch of cows with you...

- Iceland looks pretty.

- After credits bloopers. I LOVE THEM. Hahaha!

i am squidward.

I am feeling a bit on the squidward side of life lately.

Let me just be a little kid and not have to grow up.

And watch Spongebob and Hannah Montana everyday.

Thanks.

currently.

I am currently reading THIS book:

(Little Bee)

On my way to San Fran, I was stranded in the Salt Lake airport without any form of entertainment... (whoops) I decided to get a book. I heard this was a good book and it has been a good read thus far.

Currently drinking THIS:

SmartWater. Some may think bottled water is dumb. However, I am a huge advocate (as well as Jennifer Aniston) of this water because it comes in huge water bottles making sure I drink a lot of it and it has electrolytes in it making sure I am extra hydrated.

Currently listening to THIS:

AND THIS:

Currently eating THIS:

Giada De Laurentiis' very own Creamy Tomato sauce courtesy her line from Target. It is absolutely DIVINE in all ways and I could seriously eat this stuff by the spoonful. MMMmmm SO good.

Currently doing THIS class:

Not the easiest class for me to catch on to... My hips really just don't move that way. I love this class because I sweat like CRAZY in it and it's a major calorie burner and butt-shaper. :)

Those are my current interests and such. Enjoy!

flashback.

Well, if you read my sister's blog, you may have read that she has been going through the garage at my mama's house and has happened upon some real gems.

Diamonds in the rough, if you will.

We have never seen these pictures before, so I would like to share our treasures with you all.

Enjoy!

Here is a picture of yours truly. Grinning from ear to ear with my upper lip curled up. Yes folks. This is my trademark smile lasting until I was about in the 3rd grade. Then the closed-eyes-in-pictures era came about... but, that's a whole other story.

My hot mama. What a babe.

Me playing horsie with my dadio... you all are lucky I cropped this picture and spared you all the sight of him in some very short shorts. Or maybe you are feeling very left out.
