in April 2010 Weddings

I'm probably going to suck at this since Amanda usually does it, but here goes:

  1. When you were a kid, which crayon in your box was the most worn-down?
  2. From what stores is it impossible for you to emerge empty-handed?
  3. What word do you use far too frequently?
  4. How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning?
  5. Plans for the weekend?

    Thanks Mel!

    When you were a kid, which crayon in your box was the most worn-down?

    Forest green for sure! 

    From what stores is it impossible for you to emerge empty-handed?

    Costco, ha ha, I love deals! 

    What word do you use far too frequently?

    "awesome" :)

    How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning?

    I have never hit the snooze button, ever!  I love getting early and often get up before my alarm :) 

    Plans for the weekend?  

    My MOH is coming to town (from the other side of the country)!!!

    You did just fine Mel!

    1. When you were a kid, which crayon in your box was the most worn-down? I was a plain ol red type girl. I had the small box of crayons : (
    2. From what stores is it impossible for you to emerge empty-handed?  Michaels. I come home all the time with something that I feel compelled to add to my scrapbook collection.
    3. What word do you use far too frequently?  Lately I have been saying Anywho. And my dad loves making fun of me for it.
    4. How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning? Anytime between 3 and 5. This time of year it depends on how cold my room is when I wake up.
    5. Plans for the weekend? NOTHING! And I am so excited about it. I am going to hang out, watch TV, read True Blood, Scrapbook, Sew....whatever my heart desires doing at that point. Obviously Football on Sunday....I can feel a Cowboys win coming on!

    1. When you were a kid, which crayon in your box was the most worn-down? green and blue
    2. From what stores is it impossible for you to emerge empty-handed? Bed Bath and Beyond....and the grocery store (always get more than what I need)
    3. What word do you use far too frequently? I use the word "well" too much to start sentences. I also use "y'all" way too much...at least in the professional setting I don't write it or say it too often.
    4. How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning? I typically don't, but this week I have been hitting it one, two, maybe three times....next week will probably be the same.
    5. Plans for the weekend?
      Tonight: I am cleaning the guest room up incase my mom wants to stay at my house after her surgery.
      Tomorrow: I am relaxing and working on some scrapbooks for people. DH and I are also going to dinner with his parents.
      Sunday: The Nutcracker Market (yay for shopping!) then we are going to visit my mom so I can help her shower, etc).

      Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
    There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven. - Ecc. 3:1 <a href="http://www.thenest.com/?utm_source=ticker&utm_medium=HTML&utm_campaign=tickers" title="D

    When you were a kid, which crayon in your box was the most worn-down? I don't know, but if it were today it would be purple :)

    From what stores is it impossible for you to emerge empty-handed? Target, or Banana Republic

    What word do you use far too frequently? I say "you know" a lot. Plus, I still say "like" way more often than is befitting of my age.

    How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning? Ha, I would say at least 3, I set the alarm earlier than I need to get up to account for this.

    Plans for the weekend? Tonight: nada, just a relaxing dinner at home. Tomorrow: we're going to do a day trip somewhere, possibly to this cute little town a little over an hour away. Sunday: DH will be at the Cowboys @ Giants so it will be chance to have my alone/girly time.

    1. When you were a kid, which crayon in your box was the most worn-down?  Not sure.  It was either red or blue.
    2. From what stores is it impossible for you to emerge empty-handed?  Kohls.  I've been doing my best to stay away from there because I really don't need any more clothes.
    3. What word do you use far too frequently?  Awesome.  I say it a lot.  Especially at work when someone does something..well awesome!
    4. How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning?  Zero!  The dog(s) wouldn't let us sleep past that anyway.
    5. Plans for the weekend?  Housework, grocery shopping, sewing, working out (I've slacked all week), spending time with the dogs, and church.

    From what stores is it impossible for you to emerge empty-handed? Target and the groccery store for sure

    How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning? I don't, H's alarm wakes me up...it could probably wake the dead

    Plans for the weekend? tonight--nothing, tomorrow--cleaning and laundry, Sunday--probably more cleaning or just hanging out.  The ILs are coming over next weekend for dinner and we still have lots of work to do to be ready.

    Third Anniversary

    1. Probably purple or green. I always liked rich colors.

    2. Target! I love that store and hate it at the same time. You know that book/movie where the girl lives in a supermarket, I could totally live in a Target store.

    3. Awesome. I'm trapped in the early 90s.

    4. Never. Once my alarm goes off I have to get up or I'll never ready on time.

    5. Nothing! No where to go, no one to see, nothing super important to get done.

    1. When you were a kid, which crayon in your box was the most worn-down? Probably pink or purple...remember how they had the sharpeners in the box?
    2. From what stores is it impossible for you to emerge empty-handed? Oh I've learned REALLY good willpower but like ALI (sorry not mel!!) I never leave the grocery store with JUST what I came in for haha.
    3. What word do you use far too frequently? Seriously! and Literally!
    4. How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning? Usually none since DH wakes me up about 15 min before he leaves and I have to get up then and there to make his lunch :)

Honestly its been done and sitting there for a couple months but we haven't had time to get down there for it. Tomorrow night possibly having friends over. Sunday cleaning and being lazy.

    Sixth Anniversary
    1. When you were a kid, which crayon in your box was the most worn-down?   not sure actually
    2. From what stores is it impossible for you to emerge empty-handed?  Costco, and that can add up quickly
    3. What word do you use far too frequently?  definitely
    4. How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning? 2, 3, sometimes more.  We generally get up together, and neither of us has a set time to get into work, so we talk each other into staying in bed.  It is bad, but we normally cuddle during that time, so it is nice
    5. Plans for the weekend? Gym tonight already.  Possibly a nutrition seminar tomorrow morning.  Then the Georgia Tech game with the local alumni club, then a soup party at a friends house.  Sunday, errands and cleaning and such things.  Have a great weekend!

    I'm probably going to suck at this since Amanda usually does it, but here goes:

     

    When you were a kid, which crayon in your box was the most worn-down? Any of the unique colors, like cornflower blue, magenta, gold, copper etc.

    From what stores is it impossible for you to emerge empty-handed? Not including the grocery store....Pier 1, Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, The Limited, Express...

     What word do you use far too frequently? "Really??"

    How many times do you hit the snooze button on a typical morning? Actually I don't! Mike gets up before the alarm so I usually jump out of bed the same time he does.

    Plans for the weekend? Stayed in Friday, Saturday bought some Christmas decorations and went through all my ornaments & stuff, picked up Amanda & had dinner over my parents. Sunday Mike ran a race (it was COLD!) then we chilled at home the rest of the day.
