MELT MY HEART


Hello lovies!

We had a GREAT weekend in Dallas!! A post would be a little boring because I posted all the pics on instagram already!! If you care to see them come check me out!
 allinmytwenties!

Lately Ive heard more and more ladies around me claim to have "baby fever". To be honest it kind of worries me. Im about to be 27 and I have ZERO baby fever. I still jump for joy every single time I get my period! I chalk it up to the fact that Im not married, living in a different city than my Boo and prefer a bottle of Vodka over a baby bottle any day of the week. Just not ready!

With this said, I am 1000% sure that I will borrow Stephanie's baby girl and take pics like she is my own with Tugger as soon as that sweet baby is born! And for the record, No Steph isnt knocked up yet. Im just wishful dreamin for the future!

See I get pics from my sweet nephew Ollie and his new little sister and my heart MELTS each and every time!!

 {Love at first sight}

{Sweetness}

{"Thats my sister!"}

{Toe kisses}

{"Someone left the baby on me!"}

{Guard Brother}

{Car rides}

{Best babysitter ever}

{"Love the pillow you got me Mom"}

{LOVE HER}

{Nap time}

{Bully onesies}

{Loungin}

Friday Letters....

Dear Readers,
You ROCK MY WORLD!! Your comments from yesterday were so uplifting and encouraging. Every week as I push post and put another photo of my ass myself in a bikini on the internet for the whole world to see I get this gut wrenching feeling thinking "what is someone comments and tells me I really shouldnt be posting pics like this on my blog cause it gross" and then I see your comments and all in my world is right and Im instantly remotivated. I OWE YOU and lets be serious so does Christopher!!

Dear GLK,
You are so gorgeous when you are clean. If you could manage to take a bath once a week and fill yourself up while youre at it, I would LOVE your 1000x more. Its about time you do something for your room and board! Make it happen girl!

Dear Roberto,
Word on the street is you refuse to be the next Bachelor. I must say that when I heard this my love for you peaked to an all time high! I knew there was a reason I fell in love with you and I thank you for not making me question it! With that said, I was a little sad that I wouldnt be able to have date night with you every Monday night. I immediately realized that it was okay, it was hard enough watching you makeout with Allie, now if I had to witness you mug down with 15 other girls I might have DIED.

Dear All of You Interested in the Link Up,
This is totally going to happen and I think its going to be AMAZING. Ive never been interested in hosting a linkup but after the overwhelming response I realized that this may be just what so many of us need to hold ourselves accountable and to keep us encouraged and inspired!! Next Thursday will be the first linkup, please feel free to join regardless of what dieting/fitness plan you are on, this is for everyone! I look forward to reading your stories!! HELLS YA!

Dear Neighbor,
You are SO LUCKY I have a conscience. When I saw that package sitting on my front porch from Anthropology Wednesday it took everything inside of me to refrain from ripping it open and keeping whatever gorgeous item was in the box. You should really thank God because I also know that you are about my size increasing the likelihood of me actually being able to wear whatever was in the package making it ten times harder to place that box on your door step. Now if you could keep your cats from pissing in my garage EVERY TIME I leave the door up for more than 10 minutes I would greatly appreciate it. An eye for an eye homegirl.

Dear Bachelor Pad,
Im obsessed with the train wreck known as YOU. Im not going to lie, I like you even more than the Bachelor/ette and look forward to you ALL DAY MONDAY! Plese do NOT disappoint this season and please show Reid often! You know how obsessed with him I was after Gillan's season!

Dear Bahamas,
One month from today I will be relaxing on your beach drinking an amazing cocktail soaking up the sun and dipping in crystal blue water!! You have no idea how much I need you and how excited I am!!! Lets hope this month flies by!

Dear Christopher,
I LOVE YOU. Thank you for loving me every day and making me smile. Im so thankful for you and I have no doubt that we will live a happy, adventurous life together!!

Dear Weekend,
YOU ARE THE BEST! I plan to get a little crazy so I hope youre ready! Do us all a favor and hang around for a little while!! The world LOVES YOU!

XOXO

Weight Watchers Update and Photos!



Hey there! 
Its Thursday! Which lucky for me is my Friday. As soon as this clock hits 5 Ill be on the road to see my Boo in the Big D. Thank God for a 3 day weekend!

So I know I told yall Fridays were going to be my Weight Watcher check in day but Im always WAY busy on Fridays either traveling to Dallas or getting ready for Chris to come here so Ive decided for Thursdays to be WW Progress Day!! 

So here you have it!!

Stats:
Days on WW: 10
Weight Loss: 5 lbs
This Week's Challenges: Learning what foods are worth the points. Refraining from fast food after boozing!
Motivation: Pinning fitness inspiration on Pinterest

I successfully stuck to the program and kept honest to the point system all week! It was way easier than I thought it would be. I quickly learned that the weekends will be my "temptation days". When you add alcohol, late nights and being out and about to my days its WAY easier to eat food/drinks that are high in points. I spent a little time Friday figuring out how many points my drinks were and I made sure not to go over once we were out. I used all of the "extra points" allotted for the week on Friday and Saturday which resulted in a one pound gain Sunday evening. I jumped back on track Sunday and Ive lost another pound this week! 

So here are my photos!! I think you can see some difference but nothing drastic. 

This is Day 1 & Day 10.... 5 lbs lost!



Lets pray that ass gets a little smaller by next week!! I know my stomach, boobs and arms will be the first to shed the weight which is why my ass pic didnt change much. Hopefully next week.

Now just to inspire you a little check out these pins from Pinterest!! 

{If she can do it, so can I!!}

{4 months later... AMAZING transformation}

{My girl Jillian}

{My DREAM body} 

{Or hers} 

{Or hers}

{Perfect for my butt}

Someone mentioned a link up and asked if Id host one! Im open to the idea, but Id like to see how many people really would participate! If youre interested, comment and let me know and if theres a decent response next week Ill post a link up!

Happy Thursday!!

If You REALLY Knew Me...


After countless emails, texts and Facebook messages, Ive agreed to particpate in the ever so popular "If you really knew me" posts, to get Raven's hot ass off my back! ;) Ive also promised to share the good shiz! So here you have it ladies...


If you really knew me...

you would know I wash my hair twice a week MAX. Sometimes I stretch that shiz to 5-6 days. In my defense, I have little to-no oil production on my scalp. Its SO weird, I KNOW! I dont even sweat in my hair. And one extremely drunken summer of college I may have went 13 days without washing my hair. Thats SICK and I know it. But I was way too drunk to care, or notice for that matter.

you would know my biggest insecutity is, and will always be, my rather large ass. This thing has been with me since high school and you would think I would get use to it. But NO, it'll never happen. Every single time someone comments on it my heart cringes a little. I smile and laugh it off even though it really bothers me.

you would know my phone number. Its been the same since freshman year of high school. I would probably die if I ever had to get a new one. Imagine Carrie SATC post calling off her engagement. That would be me.

you would know I LOVE to clean out my ears with Qtips. L.O.V.E. Its my favorite part of getting ready! And if the Qtip isnt dirty, I feel like I didnt do a good enough job. 9 times out of 10 it isnt because I clean my ears way too much.

you would know I have to chase Tugger every single night to clean his face and every single night he runs to the exact same hiding spot. Sweet boy will never like his wrinkles being cleaned.

you would know that having my room and closet perfectly clean, with my laundry put away pleases me like nothing else. Okay maybe Christopher pleases me more, but a clean home is a close second! TMI.

you would know I once shaved my sideburns off because they didnt stay in my ponytail. No I was not 6, I was 19 and pretty intoxicated at the time. Explains the ridiculous thought process. My hair dresser was absolutely horrified and will never let me live this experience down. Niether will Steph!

If you really knew me...

you would know that trust is the ONE thing you should never break in my book. Once thats gone its damn near impossible to get back. Actually I dont think anyone has ever regained it with me. Burn me once shame on you... Burn me twice shame on ME.

you would know that I want boobs more than anything in the world. I think boobs are so feminine and girly and I wish I had boobs without a push up bra! If I have it my way, I'll have them soon enough!

you would know I that I blister and bruise VERY easily. I cannot remember the last time I had zero bruises on my body. And my skin blisters if something rubs it twice. Its ridiculous. These are from tennis shoes. Seriously??


you would know "just because" mail brightens my day.

you would know my worst fear is divorce. And I genuinely believe "A family that prays together stays together".

you would know that I have to sleep with "covers" even if its 100 degrees. I will literally find the thinnest sheet I can just have something over me. With that said, my feet have to be out of the covers to feel the fan. Oh there must be a fan.

you would know I LOVE sweet tea and hardly ever drink sodas.

and last but very not lease, you would know how much I love all of you!!!! Awwww!! :)

Yacht Week aka OUR NEXT VACAY!!!!!!


 
Im a super happy girl today. Like over the moon happy!

As you all know Christopher and I are vacationers. We arent married, dont have children or a mortgage so we choose to spend our dollars in paradise soaking up "the good life". To be honest I think it keeps us happy, motivated and sane.

What in the hell are we gonna do when we cant travel like this?!

We've been toying with the idea of Yacht Week for a while now. Chris and I REALLY wanted to go but we knew it would be difficult to find 2/4 couples to join us. Its a pricey vacation and not everyone's idea of an amazing week it sailing the Virgin Islands boozing for the record those people are IDIOTS in my book.

I mean take a LOOK at this. Who wouldnt JUMP at the opportunity?!















If this doesnt scream BEST VACATION OF ALL TIME, I dont know what does!

So yesterday, just for shits and giggles I made a Facebook Event and sent it to our closest friends to see if anyone was interested and I already have 3 couples commited! We are SOOOOO excited to say the least!! I have no doubt that this will be one of those vacations I talk about forever. Oh the memories will be SO amazing and I could not be more excited!!

We will spend 7 days in the British Virgin Islands sailing to a different Island everyday! We will begin in Tortola and then stop at:

Peter Island & The Baths
Jost Can Dyke
Marina Cay
Anegada
Virgin Gorda
Norman Islands

And then back to Tortola

Well obviously with this coming up I am even more dedicated to my WW than before and I didnt even think that was possible!!

Operation get these 2 beauty's bodies is ONNNN!!!

{Can I PLEEEASE get her legs and booty?!?!}

{And these tiny waist and great arms?!?!}

{I mean seriously?! Inspiration at its finest}


So these two B's are my inspiration!!

And its definitely keepin me strong and on track!!

 Ill post my update this Friday!! :)

Hope you all are having a great Tuesday!!

Batman, The Bachelorette and WW Results Week One

Hello lovies!

So first things first, Christopher and I went to see The Dark Knight Rises Saturday night and it did NOT disappoint. I think I liked the last one a little more because I really liked the Jokers character, but this one was still really good.

My only complaint was Bane's voice. I doubt many of you know this because Ive never blogged about it, but I have terrible hearing. Like Im that girl you can always hear because shes WAY too loud. Its not my fault though, I think Im speaking as loud as everyone else. I battled ear infections as a child, which resulted in scarred eardrums and loss of hearing. I only have 60% hearing in my right ear and 40% in my left so I watch people's lips A LOT when they speak. Well obviously with Bane's mask, theres no way to read his lips and with the muffled voice most of his scene's resulted in me leaning to Chris asking,"What did he say??" Im just thankful Chris saw the movie with his roomie before me so he could enjoy it without having to repeat 50% of Bane's dialogue to me! Other than that I LOVED it!



If you havent seen the movie you MUST go see it!


Next we must talk about this...


Though Im not a big Jef fan because everyone knows Jef is spelled with 2 Ts, I do believe he is exactly what Emily was looking for. Personally I think everything he says is a little TOO perfect so its hard for me to believe he is being 100% REAL with her. For her sake, I hope he is.


I was never a big Arie fan, mainly because it weirded me out that he was a racecar driver and so was her deceased fiance. Thats just a little too parallel for me. I also thought she would have issues in the future with the culteral differences with his family and the whole dating the producer thing was strange too. Too many red flags in my book.


In my eyes, this one is the one that got away! The moment she said he wasnt perfect for her was the moment I knew she was an idiot. Whats not to love here?! We met him out in Dallas and he was such a NICE person.I honestly think he is SO genuine. Please be the next Bachelor Sean, America LOVES you!


Im not going to lie, I cannot wait for the disaster we call Bachelor Pad!!

Better believe my DVR is set to record it tonight!!

Last, Ive decided Im going to do my Weight Watchers updates on Fridays with photos. So far I lost 4 lbs in week one. I can already feel the difference in my jeans which makes me REALLY happy!! :)

Hope everyone has a great Monday!!
