Friday Confessions

Everyone give yourself a pat on the back for making it through another week. Yes, it's Friday, and it's awesome as always. Per usual, today I am spilling the random thoughts that have been circling my brain this week. Here we go...

I confess... If you haven't watched Legally Blonde in the last 5 years, go turn on Netflix and watch it. Right now. Parker and I recently watched it and could not stop laughing. Reese Witherspoon's mannerisms are absolutely hysterical. Grab a bucket of popcorn and prepare to smile cheesily at the screen for an hour and a half.

I confess... I think Facebook should be renamed "The political forum in which individuals overshare their unsolicited opinions". Is that too long? Yes? Well, it seems highly appropriate. I've gotten to the point where I just scan for pictures. I'd rather see cute pictures of your dog or child than read why you are upset or elated at the latest government decision that you nor I had any control over. 

I confess... I like to think I am in decent shape. I work out 4-5 times a week, but after my husband's latest idea of a sprint workout, I am retracting my whole "I am in shape" mantra. I can sprint for 15 seconds and feel like I've just completed a half marathon. Pass the ventilator, please. 

I confess... I had a friend ask me the other day if Parker and I would reuse the name Taylor for future babies. I sort of cocked my head and let out an inquisitive "huh?". Taylor Grace may not be here on this earth, but she was a person and that is her name. It will always be her name. Future babies will get their own names, but Taylor is hers. I highly doubt we reuse Grace either. Taylor Grace is pretty much our favorite name ever, and it is reserved for that sweet angel baby waiting for us in Heaven. 

I confess... I ordered a Texas A&M garden banner online for the yard in honor of football season and was so excited to display it proudly. My little Aggie-loving heart sank when I opened the package and saw a sea of orange and blue. Whoever was packaging my order at Amazon might need a crash course on college colors. The Auburn Tigers banner almost looks the same... no wait, it doesn't. First world problems, obviously.

I confess... It's my half birthday today, which I really think should be a real thing. I'm still working on convincing the husband that this momentous occasion should, in fact, be celebrated.


In honor of Friday, here's Parker doing a toe touch. It's the weekend and it seemed appropriate. Yall make it a good one!

  2. Gotta love when orders get messed up! I hope you get the one you're looking for soon! :)

    I should really get around to buying some of my teams' things for outside... just never have. I've got lots INSIDE, but the yard does look pretty lonely. ;)

  3. Andy jokingly calls me Grace... I think it's because I'm the most ungraceful person ever. Not to be a copycat, but I would love to have a little girl with the middle name Grace. Also, half birthdays are totally a thing!

  4. Facebook is such a political mess right now, I just can't handle it.

  5. The woman who wrote the screenplay for Legally Blonde is an Alpha Gam! (Yes, we used to use that in recruitment, haha). And I know a family who lost their oldest child as an infant. They used her first name as the middle name for their last daughter.
