This week, Lynnette Kraft at Dancing Barefoot on Weathered Ground is hosting the Harvest of Friends Blog Party! If you would like to participate, create a post introducing yourself, link to the party via her blog, and then go explore other fun blogs and make some new blogging buddies!!
What is there to say about myself?
I am a wife to a wonderful husband,
a mother to two sweet but challenging boys and one precious girl (still bakin’),
a Christian,
and a down right HOT MESS!
(now the truth comes out!)
the official me:
My name is Brittany. I am a southern girl who grew up in Arkansas, went to college in Oklahoma(OBU), and now lives in Texas! So if anything is mentioned about any of those states I get real sentimental. My husband and I have been married for four years now. We even were in the same fourth grade class(awe!), but he was mean to me! We have two beautiful, ahem, handsome boys! I love Jesus, my church, Arkansas Razorbacks (FOREVER!), St. Louis Cardinals!, Grey’s Anatomy, reality TV, cooking shows, my girl friends, Starbucks, Ikea, Sonics’ sweet peach tea, big hair, big bags, shoes, diamonds, painting, photography, acting in theatre, and sleeping! Though I am considered to be a tomboy, I long to be a southern lady! So for now I’m a sassy, opinionated, outgoing misfit! HA!
I really started my blog as what I like to call my therapy session! I just sit and let it all spill out, and I hope that you (the reader) find it somewhat entertaining, make you laugh so hard you tinkle in your pants (or is that just me who does that?)…or maybe occasionally helpful (HA!).
Question time:
1. What is your favorite thing to snack on while you’re blogging?
hands down, COFFEE!
2. What is one thing you wouldn’t want to live without?
besides the obvious (my family, bible, etc.) I would have to say these days it would be my
iphone
and
my slippers!
3. Beach, Mountains or Farm? Where would you live if you had a choice?
farm- eh, I don’t look good in overalls.
mountains- now vacation wise I could/would love to go there.
beach- SIGN ME UP AND SHIP ME OUT!!!!
4. What’s your least favorite chore/household duty?
you mean some people have a favorite? I hate them all, haha! but my least favorite is the bathrooms!!! (don’t make me gag!)
5. Who do people say you remind them of?
maybe cause of all the kids running around! haha!
I wish!
6. Prefer parties and socializing or staying at home with the fam?
girl, I love to party! but I do cherish the time I get to spend with just my family!
7. What’s your all time favorite movie?
now see that’s hard for me, I LOVE movies in general…I mean I am an addicted movie watcher/quoter…no lie!
So, these are a few recent winners:
any of the Rocky movies!
don’t ask! (so long ago!)
8. Do you sleep in your make up or remove it like a good girl every night?
well with two and a half kids when do I have time to PUT on make up! haha! Just kidding! I do take my make up off almost every night, which is good since I am a Mary Kay beauty consultant! (shameless plug!)
9. Do you have a hidden talent or a deep desire to learn something that you’ve never had a chance to learn? What is it?
hidden talents:
* Using my mouth, I can tie a cherry stem in a knot…no lie and no hands! (my husband LOVES that one!)
* I can make a killer dolphin noise!
*surprisingly, after two kids and one on the way…I can STILL do the splits! HOLLA!
As far as learning something new; I would LOVE to dust off my guitar I got in high school and ACTUALLY use it!
10. What’s one strange thing you’re really good at?
I have a freakishly good memory (does that count?)
11. What first attracted you to your spouse?
I’d like to say it was his personality, or his love
for Christ, but ya’ll I guess I’m that shallow! haha! We met in high school and he was on the football team (point number one), he had long shaggy hair (point number two), and his muscles had muscles…YUMMY!!! (home run!)
12. What is something you love to smell?
*pumpkin pies
*hazelnut cream anything
*new babies!
*my husband’s deodorant (though he finds it strangely weird that I nuzzle my nose in his pit, don’t laugh, you know you’ve done it too!)
13. Tell something about you that you know irritates people.
* I am a take charge kinda gal, so I guess I’m “too much” for some people
* Oh yeah, and I’ve been known to get loud, just once or twice though (HA!)
14. When you have extra money (HA!) what’s the first thing you think to do with it?
spend it on starbucks! (can’t go wrong there!)…or my boys!
15. Are you a silent laugher or a loud laugher? What makes you laugh the hardest?
um, there’s no other way but loud!
*my kids make me laugh
(LOVE THIS!)
*let me think of more (haha!)
16. Where is your favorite place to shop?
Jared the Gallery of Jewelry (ha!), Target, Barnes and Noble, Sam’s Club (I could LIVE in there!)
17. What’s one thing you’d do more often if you had more time?
SLEEP!!, work out (eh, who am I kidding)
18. Are you a big spender or frugal?
you see my husband wishes I was frugal…
and I truly do believe it is a gift, but unfortunately not one I possess!
19. Who is your favorite character of all time (from a movie or book)? (Can’t be real)
Ace Ventura (alrighty then)…love me some Jim Carey!
20. Would you want to be famous?
um, yes! I was a theatre major…need I say more! 😉
whew! did I pass the test?!
Hey Brittney,
It’s so nice to meet you! Your children are just precious.
I had lots of fun reading your answers.
You sound like a hoot!
I can’t believe you can still do a split!! You must of been a cheerleader!!
I’ll be back to read more?
Susan,
Thanks so much for stopping by, but i must confess, I have NEVER been a cheerleader or done anything that would remotely warrant having to do the splits! I can just do them…weird!
The splits????? REALLY?!?!?!? Wow! You go chicky!!! 🙂
And totally guilty of nuzzling in the husband’s armpits!!! He thinks I am crazy! LOL
So good to meet you!!!
~Gina
Um, ok. I think I’m gonna need to see some proof of this “splits” gift…just sayin’ 😉
name the time and place, haha! Why do you think I was such a hit at Upward last year! haha!
