Days 4-13

I WILL FINISH THIS!!!! even if it kills me and I get behind schedule!

Day 4
Post a picture of your night



My super sexy night was spent at Aldi buying groceries. If you've never been to an Aldi you are soooo missing the boat! For the same amount of money that I would spend at any other grocery store (even Wal-Mart) I can get about double the amount at Aldi. Yes, their prices are really that good and their food is good too. There are a few things that I like to buy at Tom Thumb or wherever but the majority of my shopping is done at Aldi and I'm SOOO glad they put one in right down the street.


Day 5
Post a picture of your favorite memory




I kept flip flopping on my favorite memory. Was it the wedding (a very close contender!), when we got engaged? (waaay up there), but I finally landed on our honeymoon.

We had SUCH a great time in San Diego and it was so nice to have that time alone right after our big wedding to really soak in the whole "OMG WE'RE MARRIED" thing. Of course as most of you know I was sick for a couple days but even still... SO MUCH FUN! And in true Brittany and Nathan fashion we spent a good amount of time being lazy and just chillaxin'

The picture above is from the San Diego zoo! I LOVE zoo's and this was us trying to take a good picture on the sky cab thingy... :)

Day 6
Post a picture of somewhere you've been



I've been a lot of places and I can't say I have one favorite place or one favorite trip. But this picture is from Busch Gardens in Florida. We went to Florida to go see John Glenn go back into space and while we were there we went to Busch Gardens. It was so much fun and since we were there during the school year there was NOBODY there so Cody and I rode this one roller coaster (they had a couple but this was the best one) over and over and over and over again. Fun day.

Day 7
Post a picture that shows your true self



Truth be told, no idea why I chose this pic... but I do feel that it brings out the true essence of Brittany.

Day 8
A picture that makes you laugh




a) what the heck is going on with my bangs?? b) that was the time when I had to wear my glasses for 6 months... suckage c) remember when people use to wear their girls night shirts?!? d) remember when people use to COME to girls night? e) why is Jenn trying to bite my head off?

Day 9
Post a picture of the person who has gotten you through the most



Enough said

Day 10
Post a picture of the person you see yourself ending up with/ marrying



Wait... that's not right...



oh ok that's better... :) (by the way this is Nathan's "I'm smiling but really I'm annoyed that you're taking this picture" face)

Day 11
Post a picture of something you hate




Did I pay $9 for a movie to hear you talk through it? NO I DID NOT! Did I pay $9 for a movie to see you texting all through it? NO I DID NOT! Seriously folks... have some manners.

Day 12
Post a picture of something you love



Need I say more?

Day 13
Post a picture of your favorite band or artist




I don't care what anyone says... CHRISTINA IS EPIC!

yes, she looks like a tranny sometimes (ok a lot), yes, she is going through some personal drama right now. (divorce, maybe he cheated, maybe she cheated) but I don't care. The girl can SANG! Her Stripped album is my favorite album of all time and I just adore her for so many reasons. The love for her fans, her passion for making great music, it's just the whole thing. I love her. And while I love other female artists like Britney (when she's not crazy), Lady GaGa (she's pretty darn epic herself) and Katy Perry (I can't stop listening to her newest album!) nobody will every replace Christina or LegendTINA as her true fans call her ;)

ok so that's it for now *whew!

hopefully I'll be back soon and I won't let it build up so much next time.

xoxo

Days 2 & 3

sooo you caught me... I skipped a day. I guess I'll just catch up by doing 2 days in one.

Day 2: post a pic of the person you've been the closest with the longest

ok so this was a hard one for me... obviously the people I've known the longest are my parents but I don't know if that really counts since the people that EVERYONE has known the longest are their parents ya know?

So here are pictures of the 3 people who I am closest to.




My mom is one of my best friends and not just because she's my mom.



Nathan obviously knows me the most intimately (no sexual innuendo meant but that too I guess *wink wink*) Sometimes it amazes me how honest I am with him not that you're not suppose to be honest in marriage because of course that's important. But don't we all have those little small things that we keep to ourselves even if they're silly and stupid? It's just nice to have someone who has seen me act like a total nut bag and he still loves me anyway.



Jenn and I have pretty much been friends since Nathan and I have been together (actually Nathan and I's first date was a double date with Joe and Jenn now that I think about it) and it's just nice to have someone who makes you laugh and someone who you can be silly with but also someone who I can be honest and have a real conversation with. I also don't ever have to worry about our friendship and I don't really have to do anything to maintain it which is rather lovely. I don't have to worry that we're not gonna be friends 10 or 20 years down the road because I know we will be.

Day 3: Post a picture of the cast of your favorite TV show



I mean did you really think it was going to be something else?

UGH! I love this show so much that it's almost not even worth going into because everyone already knows how I feel about my Friends. It just makes me sooooo happy. I love the characters, I love the cast, I love the writing, honestly I could watch Friends and nothing but Friends and be happy as a clam for the rest of my life.

Not only is this show HILARIOUS to me but something about how I feel about the characters... it's like they're real people to me. That's why I cry during the Chandler and Monica proposal scene or when Monica finds out she can't have a baby, or when Phoebe cries because she has to give up the triplets or when David goes back to Minsk, or when Rachel finds out she's pregnant... or a million others that I'm probably forgetting.

I love this show, I adore this show and while I LOVE other shows like Gilmore Girls, Grey's, Dexter... nothing can ever really compare to Friends.

Side note: is it weird that I gushed more about a TV show than the people in my life???

Side note #2: I now have a friend at work named Chandler and it makes me endlessly happy!

ok that's all I'll see you tomorrow

Day 1 a picture of yourself and 15 facts (people know too much about me to try and come up with 15 things that nobody knows so you might know a lot of these sorry)



1. I was born on October 5th the cut off for kindergarten was the 1st... because of this I have been older than most people in my grade all through school.
2. I hate card games with an actual deck of cards and I REALLY hate playing spoons... a lot (I did however recently play MOW and it was pretty fun)
3. I love midnight movies, yes there are always a lot of people there and the wait is long but they are just so fun!
4. My favorite color is pink
5. I love the smell of vanilla candles
6. No matter how much you love the series Friends you don't love it more than me
7. I am addicted to Facebook
8. I am addicted to Diet Coke
9. I can't live without my ipod
10. I want to be a Youtube celebrity
11. While I go back and forth with what I want to name our daughter (one day) Nathan and I have our boy's name already picked out and we have for years... Holden (you steal this name I will kill you in your sleep)
12. I love to sleep and I can sleep for a looooong time. People say it's wasting the day but I don't feel that way at all. Why can't sleeping be productive?
13. I cry very easily
14. If I like a song I will listen to it over and over and over again until I'm totally sick of it. Right now I literally can't stop listening to Taylor Swifts "Better than revenge"
15. I cry every time... EVERY TIME I watch the scene in Friends when Monica and Chandler get engaged.
