Remember this wrap?!

I asked which one you would pick and I decided on the floral ;-)

Head wraps are my new fav accessory...if you can't tell!

Current Obsessions:
1. Head Wraps
2. Buffalo Meat - if you've never had ground buffalo meat...it's awesome...plus super lean!! Cook with veggies like green bell peppers, jalopenos, tomoatoes, onions and black beans...and eat over rice!
3. Knotie Ties!
4. The color Coral! Like my shoes from Target that I'm sure you're tired of seeing!
5. Kiki La'Rue...I just received the CUTEST romper!!
6. LONG HAIR...mine needs to keep on growing!
7. Jalopenos and Pineapples TOGETHER!

(yes I know some of these are my sponsors...but they are just THAT awesome!)

one of the last memories I have at the old house was pretty funny.
Eric started laughing at me so hard that water started coming out of his nose!

I don't think I can even get up the courage to tell you what I did...let's just say it wasn't girly like!!

oopsie!!!

will you still be my friend??!
(why am I always asking you to still be my friend? maybe because I am such a dork.)

On another note...sometimes I feel like a hippie when I wear these head wraps BUT I love them.

Do you or would you wear head wraps?

Blonde Moment (or deaf moment):

So on Saturday night Eric and I were watching the pre-lims UFC fight.

Well I hear the announcer say Scrappy Doo while two of the guys were fighting. (did you automatically think of Scooby Doo?! heehee). So you know how they have nicknames? Well...I thought one of the guys nicknames was Scrappy Doo...so I was asking E why on earth would someone pick that as a nickname. E said...NO...the announcer said scrappy dude.

oh..ok...

turns out the fighters real nickname was Wolverine.

my bad...

Have you had any blonde moments this week?!

...........................

I think I'm just dreaming of longer hair!

Most of my pins included it! lol

............................................................

Obviously this is what I wore in my VLOG yesterday..It is seriously so comfy...I'm on the hunt for more!!

Last time I wore this dress it was with chambray.

Oh Tank.

He is seriously about 70 lbs now.

(only half of what his 'grown up' size will be)

He loves food and water. And anytime he sees those two...he jumps around like a bucking bull.

I wish I could get a photo of him doing the following...

when I am getting a treat for them I can always hear him jumping up behind me. He can jump as high as I am tall now. As he jumps, Eric can see his head peek up over the counter from the living room!

It really is the funniest thing but maybe you have to be there!

If you really want to see him going crazy spastic...take a look at yesterday's vlog!

 And remember here...when we gave Tank the nickname of Mr. Shuffles.

My mom was over this weekend and she was like..."he shuffles his feet. he doesn't pick up his back legs." It seriously is the funniest thing...I promise!

Why is everyone Flashing us?! plus...Pinteresting!

So as you know it was a 20 hour drive just to get Tank. (I nicknamed him...Tankers)

We rented a Ford Edge because my car is too small to hold a cage and Eric's truck is too jacked up and bumpy!

Oh boy...I fell in love with the heated seats! I had it on the whole way haha!!

Well we leave Houston, TX and get on the freeway...within 5 minutes a BMW gets behind us and flashes their lights. We were figured they were flashing us to get out of their way.

Halfway to Dallas...we pass a cop that has pulled someone over and he gives us the craziest look.

And one other time...someone gets behind us and flashes us again. Why are people being so rude??!

I think it was in between Dallas and Sherman TX (near Oklahoma) that we got pulled over by a cop.

We didn't have our headlights on the whole way! Which was about 5 hours driving in the dark with just our day lights running. I guess the raods were well lit lol!

The cop was cool and just gave us a warning.

Have you ever done anything crazy like that?!?!

Oh..and an update on Clo Clo and Tankers.

They actually ran around outside last night and played together!!

 .................................................................

Now I want to link up with Michelle over at the Vintage Apple.

 maybe clo and tankers will be like this when they get older haha!

Had A Merry Christmas!

Oh Ladies! It has been really hard getting up these past couple days to go to work...after having a 5 day weekend/holiday!

And we BARELY took any photos! (super sad face). My soon to be sis n law has a photo of E and I that I really want. It's the only one we took of us together this year!!

Luckily....E bought me an awesome camera for Christmas!!

And we got some much needed rest...well Chloe did at least!!!

And then she played with all of her Christmas toys!

And here is ONE photo E took with his Iphone of me and my cutie pie niece Addie.

Not sure if you remember when I found this Red Velvet Hot Cocoa Recipe on Pinterest HERE?!

Well we made some! It was SOOOOOOO good and I highly recommend making it!! Ours didn't turn out as pretty BUT still good!

I'm gonna link this to Oh How Pintersting Wednesday over at The Vintage Apple!

That's all I have for today ladies! Just too tired!! I'll have some good recipes for you later this week!

Oh How Pinteresting! Plus a get to know me!

Oh Wednesday...you are here...so we are halfway thru the week!

So who are A & E?

Let's put it this way...When we have kids...They will be extremely clumsy and be a bull in a china cabinet! Yes...I am super duper clumsy and no matter what E does...he always seems to be dropping or breaking things!

If I'm at home watching TV...it's on the ID Channel (Investigation Discovery)! If E is watching TV...it's sports all the way!

We are creatures of habit! We get Genghis grill every Friday to go. They know me by name! And they know my voice on the phone when I call in the order!

We are homebodies!

We drink hot chocolate every night in the winter months! It's more like we have marshmallows with a side of hot chocolate!

We both love Chloe (aka Clo Clo) the Cockapoo!

But I get a little jealous...I think Clo loves E more than me lol!

We drink Starbucks every morning! We drink American Mistos because they are least in fat and sugar! Eric's Starbucks calls his drink the High Maintence drink haha!

Now on to Oh How Pinteresting!

I always look forward to Wednesdays so I can link up with Michelle!!

So ladies...E is getting a pair of cowboy boots and I have been debating whether I should or not!  To be honest...I wonder how often I would wear them?!?! I found a couple of pairs I like.

 My favorite one is on the left but I do like the right one as well.
