I always bring breakfast to work because typically I wake up, wash my face, change, and leave. Last night I prepped myself a fall worthy breakfast- pumpkin spice yogurt and pumpkin spice granola from Smiths. My first attempt at flavoring Greek yogurt and it didn’t go too poorly (except for the overkill of cinnamon). I just added cinnamon, vanilla, stevia, and some pumpkin pie spice to the yogurt and bam- instant pumpkin goodness!  Happy Monday everyone!!!  

So this “weekend”, I did another mini Vegas staycation. One of my best friends was visiting from Pittsburgh for the first time since she moved last year and they had the most amazing suite at Planet Hollywood. Perfect for hosting the cluster of friends who would be stopping by to say CONGRATULATIONS since they got engaged (finally!) on their first night back!!!! Yay!!!!!     So Ash and I spent a good portion of Thursday looking at ring settings and save the dates and all kinds of cute wedding things. I now have two to three sets of save the dates and invitations to work on for next year so…

So I’m still uploading the hundreds of photos I took from the show but I couldn’t resist posting something right away. Here is just a taste of my 22 hour Salt Lake City trip for the Dirt Road Diaries Tour:    

Who needs a disco ball when you have a shimmery armadillo??? 

Sorry everyone. I usually keep this a relatively complaint free zone and avoid blogging when I’m mad but today I’m mad. My co-worker (who is a friend) and I often get into arguments. They’re usually small bursts and we always apologize because we get along really really well and don’t want to make waves. Every so often we just need to let it out and then we go a few weeks issue free. It works for us and our boss seems to understand never interjects because she knows we’re ADULTS and can work things out on our own. Today a girl from another department decided to put in her two…

For some strange reason I was really hesitant to go to this show alone. My BFF Melissa was originally going to go with me, but since she started working nights at her awesome new job, she couldn’t make it. I totally wish she could have gone with me but oddly enough, going alone ended up working in my favor since there was one floor seat by itself that was in the 10th row. I hadn’t even heard about the After Party until BSB posted it on their Facebook, so I splurged and bought that too (because frankly, ten year old me would have thrown a bitch fit if I hadn’t).…

Brad Paisley is amazing. I can’t really say anything more than that. Just wow. He’s personable and funny and puts on an amazing show every time I see him.   I bought tickets to the Brad Paisley concert for Becca’s birthday back in April. We had just seen him perform at the ACM Fan Jam and since Chris Young was opening, there was no way we would miss it. I even wore camouflage for the occasion.   Lee Brice was pretty cool. I’ve never seen him perform before but I think I saw him playing craps the night of the Tim McGraw special back in April. Good performance.   Chris…

I’m a big fan of the usual movie theatre candy/road trip snack variety. Usually. But lately I’ve been feeling kind of ho hum about them. So I’ve stopped making my usual trips to Target before road trips for snacks and instead, I’ve been hitting Cost Plus. I’ve gotten some amazing French potato chips, fun flavored sodas, international candies, and biscuits for tea. I’m obsessed with Chuao dark chocolate honeycomb bars. I’ve taken to drinking Perrier or Pellegrino instead of Coke when I drive (plus it makes the chocolate taste so much fancier lol). For an up coming mountain retreat, I even stocked up on Malteser cocoa mix instead of the…

This post is about “selfies”. No not the creepy sexual ones that teens keep posting although on that note… Seriously people, stop that, do you want your kids seeing those online in fifteen years? NO! Do you want to end up a registered sex offender because you’re an idiot? NO! Just stop. NOW. Not even the weird shirtless bathroom mirror ones… I once kind of dated a guy who sent me those all the time… We did not last very long… Okay, now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, I’m getting frustrated with the amount of complaints I see about people taking just general “selfies”. My friends take them a lot…

On the very slim chance Marc sees this… Look away honey, don’t read this, it’s boring. Who am I kidding, he wouldn’t be caught dead reading my girly little blog. 😛 Anyway. I LOVE CHRIS YOUNG. LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM. He is beautiful, he is talented, and more than anything, he is just the nicest guy ever. I’ve been fortunate enough to meet him twice before (during ACM weekend this year and last) and he is just so genuinely sweet. I’ve flown all the way to Texas just for his shows so even if I wasn’t a huge Brad Paisley fan (which duh, I am), I would have gone to this show…
