Re: random Monday Morning poll :-)
1: all of that cool, edgy Urban Outfitters-esque stuff, like lacy vintage dresses with tights, leather jackets, and chucks. It looks sooooo freaking cool, but it would just look silly on me.
2:
Henry Cavill :-)
3. Math/Science related things... Technology for the most part.
4. anything related to Literature/Humanities
5. I like Carys, but it would sound silly with my B last name with two syllables. Plus, DH HATES unusual names... Not that we're talking baby names any time soon :-)
yo...i will get in here...
1. One trend: I wish I wore a lot of fun accessories, but I always go back to my fine jewelry.
2. Lord...if you know me, you know:
3. Husband is good at making friends with just about anyone...even if secretly he is not a fan. I am not very good at that at all. If we don't mesh, I have a hard time faking it...
4. I am good at remembering things...he is horrible!
5. I don't think it is silly...maybe others would, but if we ever have a boy, his name will be Barrett Wesley.
1. What is one trend that you wish you could pull off, but won't work: I think dresses over leggings look really cute!
2. PIP a celebrity crush:
3. Name one thing your husband is good at that you're not: He is really great about staying calm in stressful situations. He doesn't get overly stressed or panicked...things just don't get to him as much as they do me.
4. ...One thing you're good at that your husband sucks at: He stinks at paying all the bills on time. I realize this makes me sound like a dork, but I do take pride in keeping our finances in order.
5. One baby name you love, dispite how silly you think it is: I think Paisley is a really cute name for a girl, but not one that we will be using.
All Dressed Up
1. What is one trend that you wish you could pull off, but won't work: I've seen a lot of folks wearing really flowy white dresses and I CANNOT pull off anything that's white. I'm so pale that it just washes me out.
2.
3. Name one thing your husband is good at that you're not: He can sit and figure stuff out, like putting together home stuff, fixing things, etc. I once had a pair of shoes that crisscrossed all on the leg area and he had to figure those things out for me, LMAO!!
4. ...One thing you're good at that your husband sucks at: Technology
5. One baby name you love, dispite how silly you think it is: Declan Mark (although, it changes on a regular basis)
1. What is one trend that you wish you could pull off, but won't work: anything trendy....I usually just stick to tshirts and jeans, but I like fashionable things, I just don't feel I can pull them off.
2. PIP a celebrity crush:
3. Name one thing your husband is good at that you're not: Math and technology
4.One thing you're good at that your husband sucks at: Bird ID, or being observant
5. One baby name you love, dispite how silly you think it is: I'm not into the baby thing AT ALL, but I like Wren for a middle name.

Excellent poll!!!!!
1. long necklaces- I always think they are cute but when I put them on they just look ridiculous on me.
2.
Matt Damon!!!! I LOVE him!
3. Anything to do with technology/computers. I don't even try to fix our computer anymore when it glitches. What takes him 5 minutes to do will take me 5 hours
4. Multi-tasking. He can't do more than one thing at a time.
5. I love the name Brooklyn for a girl but DH hates it!!! I also love the name Taylor for a boy or girl.

5. One baby name you love, dispite how silly you think it is: I like Brecken (for a boy, like Brecken Meyer), but would never, ever use it!
1. What is one trend that you wish you could pull off, but won't work: Hmm...I'm not sure. I guess jeans with flats but I can't do it because I'm so short I always feel like I need to wear heels (or else I really do need to wear heels because my pants will be way too long).
2. PIP a celebrity crush: I can't PIP at work but George Clooney

5. I can't think of any baby name that I think is silly! We will probably name our first child Parker! I like it better for a boy but I think it is cute for a girl also!

(its mThat is so funny!!!! In high school I was OBSESSED with Matt Damon. For my birthday one year my best friend made me a book that was nothing but pics of him.
