Thanks to my good bloggy friend Kara over at Lovin' A Farm Boy for holding such an awesome giveaway! I won a custom gift basket for my dogs, Niles & Frasier! She did such a good job in finding toys and treats for them and they are fully obsessed with their new toys. Who knew I'd be more excited about a giveaway for my dogs than for myself? ;) Go check out her blog, she is the sweetest and is expecting her first baby {a precious girl!} this August!!

 

{sorry for crappy quality. Ronnie took this with his phone since I was at work when it arrived}

Niles hogged the blue ball almost the entire time while Frasier was his usual patient self, waiting for his chance to sneak in and steal it away! They both love their monkeys {I LOVE no stuffing!}, their Chilly Bones and they scarfed down their gourmet treats! :) Thank you again, Kara!!

 

 

 

 

 Niles has already set aside HIS toys. ha!

In other news.....Go New York!!!! I am so ecstatic for my GBLT friends and family! I actually just got a text this morning from my oldest BFF saying to "Save the Date" because she and her girlfriend are already planning their wedding! I couldn't be happier for them and everyone else who finally has the chance at something I feel should be allowed for everyone!

I'd also like to mention that today, June 25th, marks SIX MONTHS until Christmas!!!

For crazy people like me, that just gives me more reason to live. 

For the rest of you, you may start freaking out now. 

Have an awesome weekend, you guys!! 

Another Noggin Dump

Holla for it finally being Thursday!

{And holla for a good hair day! {don't you just love 'em?!}

I have a lot on my mind today and figured I'd take it all out on you guys.

You don't mind, do ya? ;)

+Thank you to Kit for hosting such an an awesome giveaway week last week! I won Friday's giveaway for a five flower cluster pin from No Plain T's. It's like the picture below but I get to choose which colors I want! I'm SO excited!! Happy 1 Year Blogiversary to you, Kit!

+I am seriously dying to try a Shellac manicure. I keep reading about everyone loving theirs but to get one, that would require me to stop biting my nails. I was doing so well but work has me all stressed out and I bite them without even realizing it. G-ross.

+On that note, I found out some more not-so-great news at work. It's nothing that's affecting the existence of my job, just the existence of my sanity is all.

+I'm all kinds of sad this week without my Parks and Rec, Modern Family, Happy Endings and Big Bang Theory. I might wither away and die this summer :(

{hilarious clip from Happy Endings season finale}

+Making me happy though is all of you new wonderful followers/friends! I am amazed to have 71 of you following my nonsense and it means SO much to me! Thank you :)

+I love my siblings like you wouldn't know. And I love that my brother e-mailed me last night with a link to this Christmas station on Pandora. He obviously grew up with the same Christmas-obsessed mother that I did.

+Um, has anyone heard the phrase "Cowabunga" used in real life? I didn't think so. But if you hang out with my fiance, you might hear him yell it out as he shoots out of a parking lot onto a traffickey street. That fool makes me laugh like you wouldn't believe but now that stupid word is stuck in my head today.

+Who knew drinking lots of water and eating healthy actually = clear skin? Genius, I tell you! Big shout out to Mio for making all of that water drinking bearable possible!

+Did you know I'm obsessed with daily deal sites? I won't even tell you how many I'm signed up for. But I'm always open for more so send me your recommendations or invitations! The only ones I won't do are the sites that have so-called "steals" such as an ottoman that's "50% off the original price of $600". Homie don't play that.

+Speaking of those sites, are you signed up for Zulily? It's "Daily Deals for Moms, Babies and Kids" and DUH I don't have kids but I DO have a need for purses, jewelry, shoes and home decor - all of which they sell {among the cute baby/kids stuff too}. Get yourself signed up here.

+And last but not least, CONGRATULATIONS to my girl, Meg O. on her beyond exciting news!!! ♥

So what's going on with y'all on this fabulous day?
