Fill in the Blank Friday

Happy Friday, friends! I am feeling pretty exhausted this week. Zombie-like to be exact. I am SO happy it is Friday though. Quality fun time with Miguel and Tay. What do you all have planned for the weekend?? Getting in the holiday spirit? I sure am! Christmas shopping, christmas movies, chocolate, tea, cuddle time...LOVE IT!

1.   The holiday season is     season of love and thanks. it reminds everyone that life is good and you should really cherish the people in your life. i love the holidays because it brings everyone together and cheesey-ness is more socially acceptable which is perfect for me :)   .

2.   Snow makes me   unsure. i love the idea of snow and i think it is gorgeous. but then when i am in it, im not so stoked. its cold and wet and inconvenient.      .

3.  The best comfort food to eat when it's cold out is    hot soup in a bread bowl with some hot chocolate with whipped cream. YUM!!    .

4. Winter is the best time for    comfy clothes, big blankets, movies and cuddling!  

5.  I can hardly wait for    Mike and my Xmas in our little apartment and then the celebration with our families  .

6.  When it comes to holiday gifts I prefer to    give them. i love giving gifts - it is just hard to find them sometimes.

7.  If I were to rate my excitement about the holiday season on a scale from 1-10, I would say I am at about a   15. im pretty stoked. 

Fill in the Blank Friday

I love linking up with Lauren at The Little Things for her Friday fill-in's. I wish I remembered to do it more often but, I do what I can. Today it is p-o-u-r-i-n-g rain here in San Diego. Not normal for us, so naturally we all freak out, drive terribly, get sick because we wear rainbow sandals in spite of the downpour, and decide the only thing to do in the rain is put on sweats and watch a Harry Potter marathon with some hot cocoa. We survive.

I have the privelege of having to work for the next 5 hours in the dark, outside and in the rain. Strep throat, here is your golden opportunity to strike! Eek, not excited in the least.

Here are the fun fill ins. You should join the movement :)

1.   My favorite thing about this week was/is     having time to have breakfast with Mike 3 times this week before we went to work. Corner Bakery probably thinks we are stalking them   .

2.   Colder weather makes me   awkward. i don't have the close for it. my hair goes to frizztown, and i start shivering at about 57 degrees. not cool      .

3.  Three things that make me terribly happy as of late are    1. the pumpkin muffins with cream cheese filling i made. yum! 2. my flight to Paris is officially booked! AH! 3. my two fav co-workers in history - chantel and manda...i would die without them   .

4. If I could only wear one kind of shoe for the rest of my life, I'd choose    rainbow sandals. hands down.   .

5.  My personality type is    two complete opposites in a constant battle. I literally am half extrovert, social, fun, ambisious as can be, explorer and then half timid, shy, awkward, quite, unsure. it is an epic battle and it drives me insane! ugh, maybe one day one will shine through and stay that way..

6.  I have a serious problem resisting     chocolate and any form of ice cream. i have no chance against them  .

7.  My favorite color to wear is    blues, teals and browns  .

PS - the forcast for tomorrow is... SUNNY! ah, the world will be right once again.

Fill in the Blank Friday

1.   The best thing I did all week was     bake 3 different things on Monday - molasses cookies (for momma), sugar free blueberry oat bars (for grandpa) and chocolate eclairs (for Mikey)  .

2.    country music      make me super happy.

3.  Pets are   so amazing and loving and a crazy maniac at the same time   .

4.    my family   is the best thing about my life.

5.  With the cooler weather I am looking forward to    cuddling up with lots of blankets, hot chocolate, beanies, boots, baking....lots!!

6.  Something that's on my "wish list" right now is     some new winter clothes, finding out if I get to move to Paris in 4 months and not being sick right now   .

7.  This weekend I am going to    probably do a lot of laying down and trying to get better. Go figure the only weekend I have off work in over a month and I am super sick :( tonight I am going to see "drive" with mike - looking forward to that.    .

Thanks Lauren for the fill-ins!

HAPPY FALL

All my life I have hated any season that wasn't summer. Summer was the end all be all for me. Hot, hot sun.

For whatever reason I am infatuated with fall and winter this year. I have never been more excited to be cold! So much so that I am longing to live in the snow. WOOOAH..never thought I would say that. Something must be wrong with me...help!

Photos to help you get in the spirit.

PS- I just tried Starbuck's pumpkin spice latte ...um...to die for!!

Friday Fill-ins

1.   One of life's most simple pleasures is     fresh air  .

2.    Fake people and slow walkers      makes me want to punch someone.

3.  I like   my puppy    because,    she is the cutest maniac I know  .

4.    fart   is a funny word.

5.  If I had to choose one beauty product to use for the rest of eternity it would be    chapstick - out of necessity. I can't go 30 minutes without re-applying. next would be blush since my face is usually pale .

6.  I'm happy that    I have gotten to see so many dear friends this week    .

7.  I would never     be a nurse or doctor. blood, bones, flesh, needles all make me want to cry and vomit at the same time. sick sick sick!!!    .

Happy weekend friends :)

7.  Something friends might say about me is that I       am a total dork  . 

Friday Fill-in's are Back in Action!

I took a little break from fill-in's because, to be completely honest, by the time I remembered it was already Tuesday again. 

Here I am, back on track. Mike and I are having a Dexter marathon. Season 3 with two episodes left! I have already seen (and love) all the seasons but it is just an addicting the second time around.  Any Dexter fans out there???

I have the day off tomorrow and can't wait to sleep in and cuddle with Tay, have a hard workout, lay at the beach and then see HARRY POTTER! Woohoo! 

Have a great Friday everyone!! Keep that smile on your face!

1.   I am a (morning, evening, middle of the day person)       middle of the day person. I can't wake up in the mornings and am not super active every night but I love the middle of the day. Good lunches, sunshine, beach time...all the good stuff happens in the bright daylight  .

2.  My favorite Pandora stations are    Taylor Swift (go figure!), James Taylor, Temper Trap..   .

3.  3 of my "must-have" songs for a road trip playlist are     Red Dirt Road - Brooks and Dunn, Summertime - Kenny Chesney, Where the Boat Leaves From - Zac Brown Band    .

4.  My favorite pattern is   polka dots probably? I love lace...is that a pattern? 

5.  My favorite perfume is     very hollywood by Michael Korrs. D&G light blue has been my go to for years too  .

6.  Rules are      sometimes legit and sometimes the dumbest crap I have ever heard. Seriously, google some of the random laws and rules in other states and you will be shocked!  So crazy!

7.  My most overused phrase or punctuation is       I would say "good talk, see you out there" but I asked Mike and he says "love you to death" haha . 

Fill Ins and Aussie Update

Surprise, Surprise. Brittany is LATE again. Gosh, I told you I am horrible at being on time didn't I?  Sorry about that friends. Here are my Friday fill ins on Saturday. Would you expect anything less from me?

I am headed up to Hollywood today with one of my best friends from college, Rachel. You all might remember her from the 3 day walk. We are meeting two other girls from our sorority and having a girl's night out in LA. I am so excited. I haven't seen these girls in sooo long and haven't had a girls night out in about the same amount of time! oh man. 

So I will be back next week with photos of fun and silly things. For now, here are some suuuper awkward slash awesome pictures of my parents in the outback. They have been in Australia visiting my brother for the past two weeks and come home in a few days.  Without further adieu, please enjoy.

1.   The last movie I saw was      Little Fockers. We tried to watch that last night but I definitely fell asleep before anything happened. So in real life, the last one was X-men: First Class. Not half bad if I do say so myself   .

2.  I want to    have a looong vacation and not have to go back to work!!!  

3.  Surprises are     exciting! I am easily fooled so you could definitely pull something past me. I on the other hand am horrible at surprises because I can not lie or keep a straight face to save my life  .

4.  The best accessory is   earings or a bag...or in my case today a sparkly headband .

5.  My favorite warm drink is     a plain latte, which I am drinking at the very minute. Second place goes to hot chocolate.  .

6.  My favorite cold drink is       beer (dos equiss amber)   .

7.  Currently loving       the possibilities that the future holds. now just gotta get some courage and jump!    

PS- my brother met Carrie Underwood in Australia last night and gave her a flower. What a (lucky) gentleman right?
