Sunday I am going to a jewelry party. That?s all I know. J
2. Where do you fall in your family's birth order? Youngest.
3. How many social media networks do you belong to at the moment? 1, just Facebook and I held out on that for a looooong time.
4. Confess the worst fashion trend you ever succumbed to. Basically anything that was popular growing up. I used to make my own super flashy and gaudy scrunchies!
5. Plans for the weekend? Going to tell family our big news! We're stopping by MIL's house to tell BIL & SIL first thing before they head to the beach, then lunch with my parents to tell them. Then we're going to a baby shower for a mutual friend (where we plan on telling no one, we don't want to take away from their celebration). Hopefully stopping at the. best. ever. sno cone place on way back home. Sunday, no plans.
2. Where do you fall in your family's birth order? I'm the oldest
3. How many social media networks do you belong to at the moment? Facebook & Twitter
4. Confess the worst fashion trend you ever succumbed to. Back in the early 90's with the leggings and the slouchy socks pulled over them....blech.
5. Plans for the weekend? Tonight I'm supposed to meet my ex-MOH for coffee (First time I've seen her in almost 2 years), she's already cancelled on my twice, so I'm not counting on it thought. Tomorrow going to the pool and cleaning, then dinner with my parents and DH for my dad's birthday. Sunday, nothing planned, hopefully going to the pool again!

2. Where do you fall in your family's birth order? oldest of 4
3. How many social media networks do you belong to at the moment? I think my myspace account may still be active, but I never use it anymore. I am on FB and have been contemplating Twitter for awhile now.
4. Confess the worst fashion trend you ever succumbed to. anything from the 80s and early 90s
5. Plans for the weekend? tonight errands and possibly groccery shopping, tomorrow hoping to get my hair cut & colored then possibly going to a huge craft fair/festival, Sunday I have a bridal shower for my cousin

3. How many social media networks do you belong to at the moment? Um 1, Facebook of course
4. Confess the worst fashion trend you ever succumbed to. Well in retrospect my black hightops were pretty nasty but they were pretty awesome back in the day. High waisted tapered pants were pretty gross too.
5. Plans for the weekend? Nothing much, SS asked to stay with us this weekend because his mom is going to the NJ shore, SD loves the beach but SS does not. My guess is when he runs it by his mom she'll say fine b/c apparently her boyfriend is coming too, and SD may have a friend along. He'll have more fun at our house. I bought him some shirts last night and one is a Chuck Norris one with all these hilarious phrases on it, I'll have to type it up or take a photo of it and upload it here. SS will LOVE it, DH, SD and I were all laughing at what it said.
Besides having him around, just making beer for me, weeding and studying will be the tasklist for the weekend.

4. Confess the worst fashion trend you ever succumbed to. Ugh. I am terrified by some of the stuff I have worn. Either the baggy Jnco jeans when I was in late elementary or early middle, but there was also my band t shirt phase which wasn't a fashion trend anywhere other than my group of friends. I hung out with a lot of boys and my mom used to say "Just because you hang out with boys doesn't mean you need to look like one"
