Re: GTKY woo!

  • 1. What other guilty pleasures didn't make the cut for your july photo? of course this is open to all those who haven't posted one, too - we know you got some ;)

      a. So many!  I love pretty much all trashy reality tv shows, I have a monthly subscription to Cosmo, and love to nom on birthday cake gelato!  

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO? 

    a. My favorite is a weekend where we don't have prior arrangements, working, parties, or what not.  I love to be able to spend the day lounging.  Get up, make us a big breakfast.  Walk the dogs, lounge, then go out for a nice dinner.  I love trying new food and different restaurants.   

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind?  A quiet church? Las Vegas?

    a. Yes!  It would of course just be immediate family would have an open invite.  I'm wanting something near a lake!  And we could go boating and have a big, sloppy party.  

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble?

    a. I would tell myself to work harder on my relationship w/my father, but in hindsight, I am fairly certain my 16 year old self would be too immature to listen.

What other guilty pleasures didn't make the cut for your july photo? of course this is open to all those who haven't posted one, too - we know you got some ;)I haven't added any to my siggy, but most of my guilty pleasures are based around TV (teen mom, sister wives, etc.) or food (brownie sundaes, garlic fries from Gotts Roadside, etc.).

  • 1. What other guilty pleasures didn't make the cut for your july photo? of course this is open to all those who haven't posted one, too - we know you got some ;)

    --haven't posted one, but nothing feels better after a bad day than some Jersey housewives goin' at it!

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO? 

    --with how much we have been working lately, being together doing anything is my favorite!

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind?  A quiet church? Las Vegas?

    --yes! I would love to do an intimate renewal on the beach of a tropical island.  Our wedding was a super traditional religious ceremony with a bunch of rules and pre-selected/sanctioned elements, so it would be SO nice to be able to really put our own spin on things and have a 100% personal ceremony.

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble?

    --I wouldn't!  Living the ups and downs has been half of the adventure!

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble? Pass. There is too much to screw up.

  • 1. What other guilty pleasures didn't make the cut for your july photo? of course this is open to all those who haven't posted one, too - we know you got some ;)I'm so behind here...so I'll just say one of my guilty pleasures-16 and Pregnant. I only watch it when DH isn't home, otherwise he wouldn't stop making fun of me. 

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO? Honestly? Staying home and watching tv or playing a video game. We're boring. Smile

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind?  A quiet church? Las Vegas? Sure, years from now. I thought it would be cute if we had it at the chapel we got married in. 

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble? Keep playing sports. Don't quit! And study!

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO? We go out to this amazing gastropub-style restaurant whenever we can afford it

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind?  A quiet church? Las Vegas? DH wants to do one down the road. Probably in a garden or some place we've always wanted to go.

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble? You can't change people, so stop trying.

  • 1. What other guilty pleasures didn't make the cut for your july photo? Hmm...like pp it is usually trashy tv or food.  I love the Gypsy wedding show on tlc, lifetime movies, etc.  Although I am a healthy eater, I love a big plate of nachos or chicken fingers and fries!

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO? We just moved to a new area, so recently we have been taking long walks to explore the different neighborhoods around us.  It is fun to just talk and point out all the mansions we love and dream to live in some day!

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind? A quiet church? Las Vegas? Nah.

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble? I would tell myself to be confident in yourself!  I was so not confident in the person I was back then.

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble?   I'd tell myself not to waste time in college and pass on the whole deal.

  • 1. What other guilty pleasures didn't make the cut for your july photo? of course this is open to all those who haven't posted one, too - we know you got some ;)

    I don't have a photo but I guess a guilty pleasure of mine is just surfing the internet. I spend waaay too much time doing this and really need to pick up on some of my old hobbies. 

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO?

    Hot spot? Haha, if we are up to party its usually at our BFFs' having snack food and a bonfire. 

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind?  A quiet church? Las Vegas?

    Oh absolutely! I will have my dream wedding (my real one was just fine) of a simple elopement, just DH and I. Maybe the kid(s). 

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble?

    I would tell her it really does get better after you move away from that small town and get out on your own.

  • 1. What other guilty pleasures didn't make the cut for your july photo? of course this is open to all those who haven't posted one, too - we know you got some ;)I don't have one in my siggie, but I love pretty much everything on TLC! Wedding shows, baby shows, Sister Wives, all of it!

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO? We always like to try new stuff, so anything that we haven't done before is good!

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind? A quiet church? Las Vegas? We actually renewed our vows in the Church where we got married after we got back together. (We split for a few months about 6 months after we got married) It wasn't a ceremony or anything though. We sat in a pew and talked about what we wanted for our future together and made new promises to each other.

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble? Not a thing. I'm happy with my life the way it is now, and if I had hindsight back then, I might not have done some of the stupid sh!t that made me the way I am today!

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble? My confidence wasn't the best due to family issues, so I would probably tell myself to have faith and it gets better. To believe in myself and work hard.

    1. What other guilty pleasures didn't make the cut for your july photo? of course this is open to all those who haven't posted one, too - we know you got some ;)  I haven't done this in a long time, but if I am feeling bad enough I've been known to eat frosting right out of the container.

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO? This might sound weird, but I love going to Lowe's with my H and just browsing the aisles, dreaming about future projects for our house.

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind?  If we ever did one, it would likely be very low key, maybe just the two of us.  We did the big wedding, so I see no reason to parade around in front of a bunch of people again.  If we do it someday it will be just for us....and our future kids.

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble?  Just to slow down and enjoy life.  When I was 19 I was freaking out about turning 20 and how "old" I was.  Sheesh, I'd kill to be 20 again (of course with knowing everything I know now)

    Happy Thursday!

    - mine are all silly: bagels with cream cheese, dumb sitcoms....

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO? 
    - we prefer to be home, watching movies, playing games, and hanging out with friends

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind?  A quiet church? Las Vegas?
    - I've never considered it, but we've only been married 1.5 years.  Maybe around 25 years, but we'll see...

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble?
    - I would teach her/me everything I know now about health and eating right - I really didn't know anything, and maybe I wouldn't have screwed up my metabolism so bad if I started eating healthy at a MUCH earlier age!

    Teen Mom and Millionaire Matchmaker.  Ridiculous.

    playing games :)

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind?  A quiet church? Las Vegas?

    I think this would be fun years down the road, probably on the beach somewhere tropical.  I don't think I'd want another big party, although I loved our wedding.

     

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble?

    I wouldn't want to change anything, so I would just tell myself to have faith and it will all turn out the way it's supposed to.  As others have said, I know the trials in life have helped make me who I am today.

    It's a slow Thursday night on TTGP, so why not?

    1. What other guilty pleasures didn't make the cut for your july photo? of course this is open to all those who haven't posted one, too - we know you got some ;)

    Oh gosh I have so many haha. Reality TV, especially Teen Mom, is definitely one. So is chocolate and sweets in general, and cheesy 80s and 90s pop music. :)

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO? 

    DH and I are quite boring when it comes to dates. We really enjoy going for nice meals with lots of wine and then curling up at home to watch a movie.

    3. Have you ever considered doing a vow renewal? If so, what kind?  A quiet church? Las Vegas?

    I don't know about DH as we've never actually talked about it, but I've considered it. I don't know that it's something we'll ever do, but I would like to do one. The only reason is because we were only engaged for six weeks as DH wanted to get married right away, and living so far away from my hometown none of my family or friends was able to make it to the wedding. I'd really love to have a ceremony that my friends and family are able to attend.

    4. If you tell 16 year old self one thing that you know now, what would you tell her? Or would you pass on the gamble?

    Easy. Don't ever let that slime ball near you again and don't ever let your best friend go. You'll regret doing both.

    Happy Thursday!

    2. What is your favorite weekend/date night hot spot or activity, etc to spend w/your SO? We love hoing to the movies. It may be a classic date, but we love it! and a nice dinner.
