**My name is Aimee and I will be blogging themed days usually. I will try to touch on a variety of topics and try to make this blog an interesting read. Thank you for taking the time to stop by and read! I hope you enjoy your time here.**
Hello Folks!! Well there are some pretty good quality giveaways out there this week. You all should check the ones listed below out... ?If you win though you have to share the goods ;) Just kidding.
Fashion Momma is doing a giveaway from my favorite etsy store Barberry & Lace. I have spoken about Leigh Ashleys jewlery multiple times on this blog. I own a necklace and she even custom made a pretty necklace for my mom for christmas. Check out Fashion Momma's blog for a chance to win one of the lovely pieces (oh and stay around and look at her blog, I just discovered it anxd love it). Here are just a couple of the gorgeous pieces from Barberry & Lace
Leigh Ashley is hosting a giveaway at her blog as well and it is for a personalized skirt from Fashion Momma. These skirts are super cute and you have the chance to pick your fabric so it will be personalized just for you. I need mroe skirts and I love having clothes that no one else has and that is made specifically for me. Here are just a couple of samples of the gorgeous skirts Fashion Momma makes.
Jess @ All American Jess is doing a giveaway for her 400th entry (go over and congratulate her). The fatty inside me really wants this one because she is giving away a $40 gift card to one of the restaurants she has listed (if I won it would be hard to decide between Macaroni Grill and Outback)and a $20 gift certificate to Regal Cinemas or AMC. I smell date night right here. :)
What are you still doing here? Check out these giveaways!!
Happy Sunday folks!! Well I got tagged in that question game again so I actually have an excuse to blog today.
Before I do that I wanted to encourage you all to go and check out the http://brittanyjohnson87.blogspot.com/2010/09/giveaway-time.html is doing. I really hope I win becase I would get to pick a piece of jewlery (vup to $20 value) from Barberry and Lace (Leigh Ashley's fantastic jewley etsy shop). I already have one necklace from her store and I love it. It hardly leaves my neck so of course I want another piece. Maybe another necklace or a ring. Hmm the choices. Go check the giveaway out!!
Wishing Tree Necklace
She has a bunch of awesome rings like this one.
Oh so http://oisme.blogspot.com/ tagged me on this 8 question thingy (this is my 3rd time being tagged)..
{ one } Are you capable of any stupid human tricks (you know, like my Seagull Impersonation, or weird elbows)? Describe, take a picture, or vlog it!
I don't think so. I do such good howling that i get my dog going crazy. Maybe I will take a video of it eventually. I don't know how much of a trick it is but I do know I look pretty stupid doing it
{ two } What is one thing you are absolutely friggin' OCD about that everyone else thinks is ridiculous? Details!
Well I would probably say the thing I am the wost with OCD is my computer and how I have my documents and mail organized. Everything has to have a place and I freak out if there are things in my work inbox that arent catergorized. I even organize my personal files. Like my recipes and football stuff have a file. I spend the last 30 minuts at work organizing and reorganizing everything
{ three } If you could have any talent or ability, what do you wish it could be (not to be confused with superpowers) and why?
I would want to be a great singer. I am just jealous of all the people that sing well. My boyfriend is a fantastic singer and one of my friends is as well. I wish I had some musical talent (especially singing) because I feel it would set me apart and then I could even be ina band maybe.
{ four } Who was your celebrity pre-teen/teenage crush? You know you had one!
I loved JTT of course... Johnathon Taylor Thomas. I also was big into the boy bands. I loved Justin and JC fron *Nsync (Maybe I just liked guys with J names).
{ five } Honestly, how much do you sing in the car? And do you care if people are watching? Furthermore, what do you like to sing in the car?
I sing a lot in the car (I think this goes with I wish I was a good singer). Especially when me and Britt (my co-worker) are driving home from work. We are singing super loud and we dont care who looks at us. Usually I sing the songs that are on the top 40 stations. I also like to sing rock songs when i am by myself.
{ six } How long have you gone without a shower/bath? And what was your reason? You're gross.
I think prbably 3 days and I think its because we were camping and the showers broke so I couldnt really shower. Yah I know gross eh?
{ seven } Name one food that you could literally eat every single day for the rest of your life.
OR Pita Chips and Hummus
{ eight } It's exactly three months until Christmas! What is your favorite Christmas TV special or movie?
I LOVE The Christmas Story. That is one I def. make sure I watch every year. But usually Ill watch it on Thanksgiving.
I am not going to tag anyone individually because I am lazy (sorry) but I do want you all to do it! So leave me a comment and let me know if you did the 8 questions I listed below
My Questions 1. Name a Drink after You. What would be in it? What would it taste like? 2. If you had to give up one thing for the rest of your life that you usually do what would it be? 3. What's the longest you have gone without sleep? Why? 4. What would you describe your decorating style as? Share a picture of your favorite room in your house. 5. If you were going to meet your idol what outfit would you wear? 6. What is the dumbest thing you have ever done? 7. What is the first thing you do when you come home from work? (or if you don't work what is the first thing you do when you wake up?) 8. What is the most important lesson you learned from your parents
Well I have a slight hangover even though I didn't drink that much last night. I was drinking sugary drinks (note to self its not good to play 5 games of beer pong with Mike's Hard Lemonade). So I am going to just go watch football an not be on the computer because it hurts my head. Ill catch up on your blogs when I am slacking off at work tomorrow ;)
Happy Saturday everyone! I hope you are all having a fun filled and relaxing day. I sure am... Its 1 pm over here and I still havent gotten dressed. Thats how I like my Saturdays... Relaxing during the day then going out at night. :)

Now Time to share with you what I am coveting this week.It is almost the fall and of course that means fall fashion. I am not one to follow trends really or think long and hard about fashion. Don't get me wrong.. I dress cute and I like to think I am fashionable but compared to some girls I am not. However, one fall staple I get excited about every year are boots!! In particular I have been lusting after Jessica Simpsons for a while
Jessica Simpson 'Decola'
Jessica Simpson 'Capry'
Jessica Simpson 'Angie'
What are you coveting today? What is your fall staple?
Happy Saturday and Happy LONG weekend!! I am super excited for this to be labor day weekend. Goodness knows that with the work week I had last week I need this. I am keeping my fingers crossed that all of this hard work will pay off... I guess I will know soon enough.
So don't really have much planned for this weekend. I am trying to figure out a fun and unique date night for kevin and myself tonight. Any suggestions will be welcome. I am also dealing with horrible allergies. I am talking about constant sneezing, congestion, watery eyes, and chest congestion as well. Blah. I hate allergies!!

{one} what’s your favorite day of the week and why?
Sundays!! Well at least during Football Season that is. I like Monday nights a lot too...
Overall I guess Saturdays.
{two} if you could have a glimpse of your future, would you choose to see it and what time would you want to see?
Ummm as tempting as that is I don't think I would want to see my future because I feel like I would accidentally change some stuff with that knowledge and it would be hard to live in the present knowing what lay ahead.
{three} if you could be any animal, which animal would you be?
I want to get away! Go, fly away...ya ya ya
An eagle. I think they are such elegant birds and they can fly!! I want to be free...
{four} do you have a lucky number?
Yep... 55. Really anything with the #5 in it I love.
{five} if you could bring one famous person back from the dead, who would it be and why?
Ummm can we go back in time and bring Kennedy back from the dead. Or actually not have him die ever... Think of how different our nation and economy would have been had he never been assainated. I love Kevin's theory on this.
{six} fill in the blank: peanut butter and ____________.
Jelly time.... Sorry I really cant get enough of this video. I never grow old of it.
{seven} woulld you rather live by the mountains or by the beach?
BEACH!!!!!!!!!
{eight} do you have any tattoos?
I have two. One I need to get fixed and really should stop being a chicken about it. Its the Chargers bolt on my ankle and Iknow getting it fixed is going to hurt A LOT because its on the bone. The other is my horoscope sign (cancer) on my back. You can kinsda see it in this picture here (its on my right shoulder blade). I want at least 2 more
{nine} if you could retire tomorrow, what would you do?
Would I be rich? Or have a healthy income to live off of? I would travel!
{ten} what is your favorite all time movie?
I don't think I have an all time favorite. Maybe Grease? I have no idea.
Well come back tomorrow for some sport talk. Not sure yet what Ill be talking about yet but Ill come up with something. Maybe some fantasy football reflections. Who knows!!
