Show us your life Friday....best cleaning tips!

My husband is going to fall out of his chair laughing when he reads that I am going to give advice on cleaning! Ha! I am NOT a cleaner.

However one thing that I have found that I LOVE is the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser!

These guys SERIOUSLY get up anything. Try them!

I also recommend one of these (patent pending):

My husband does ALL the laundry, the dishes, and usually picks up after my messy self.

Thank you honey for all that you do!!!

Headed over to Kelly's Korner to see if I can learn a thing or two!

Favorite Fridays....Favorite Comedy TV Show

A girl in pearls and a boy with toys is doing favorite friday again with the topic of favorite comedy tv shows. I'm going to take this time to complain. One of my favorites is Ugly Betty.

Laugh if you will, but it's cute! It's not trying to be some serious drama, it's a light hearted fun show to watch. AND THEY CANCELLED IT. Now, Tom couldn't be more excited they cancelled it. He went as far as to say it was the WORST show on television. (He came realllll close to the couch that evening!) :) At least they are finishing out the season. Since they know it's not coming back maybe the writers will do something big...I would love to see Betty and Daniel together!

Oh well, I'll just pretend that is what happens! :)

Have a great weekend!!!

Top Three Thursday...Male Movie Hotties

I don't believe words are needed. (sigh)

You're welcome.

Thoughtless Thursday!!

So the idea of Thoughtless Thursday from

http://lifeinthefulmerlane.blogspot.com/">

is to basically just post a picture/group of pictures with no explaining. Well I'll do VERY LITTLE explaining. These are from our honeymoon....and all I have to say is don't you love the typical one person honeymoon pictures?? :)

Go over and check out the rest at Life in the Fulmer Lane!

Wishful Wednesday...Purses!

'I wish' .... I could afford Louis Vuitton Monogram Galliera bag without putting a dent in my pocketbook!

That being said, I'm really not a designer handbag kinda gal. Don't get me wrong....you give me one and I'm going to LOVE you forever but I really can't make myself buy one. MAYBE when I'm old and rich, right? :)

My purses usually run in the $60-$70 range and some of my favorites have recently come from The Limited!

Searching for this topic, I also found some cute stuff on the web. This is a cute little clutch for a formal event from White House Black Market.

I usually like a colored purse for that extra pop of color (as at work I wear mostly black/browns). I LOVE this red one I found. I have one very similar!

I'm really liking this yellow hobo too!

Wishful Wednesday may be getting my bank account in trouble!!!

Go over The Seattle Smiths and play along!

Have a great day!

Top Two Tuesday...things you can't live without!

The two things I can't live without...

#1....my iphone!

I'm so obsessed with my iphone and I don't even realize it! Tom gave it to me for my birthday last year but now I think he wishes he hadn't! Its just so easy to mindlessly place games, check email/facebook, whatever!

And #2....

Diet Coke!

I don't drink coffee so my primary souce of caffeine in the morning is diet coke. I have to have it! I used to drink sooo many a day but now I am down to two! Two too many but I'm trying! :)

Go over to Undomestic Mama to play!

Am I really this old?

This weekend reminded me just how old I am! Friday night Tom and I had tickets to John Mayer. We rushed home, changed clothes and decided to go find a patio to eat dinner before the concert. We made our way over to the concert, which was GREAT! I may not be a fan of JM's personal life but he can perform! Sadly, we left the concert at 10pm, yes 10pm, because we knew we had a big day the next day and I didn't want to be grumpy. If that isn't old, I don't know what is!

Before we left the concert though, we made new friends! Jason and Tori from Arkansas sat beside us. Now I always talk about blogs I follow with Tom. I NEVER really thought he listened. Well, when Jason and Tori told us where they were from Tom commented that they lived near my "blogger person"...I realized he meant Kelly at Kelly's Korner...turns out Tori and Kelly went to OBU together. It truly is a small world!!

Saturday morning, we got up to go to a special 2 year old birthday party, my niece Eliza Grace!

EG adores Elmo and Abby from Sesame Street so that was the theme.

Her yummy ice cream cake

CHEESE!

Mandy and her three adorable girls- Maddie, Anna Claire, and Chloe Beth

Present Time!

She LOVED the lounge chair her Mimi (my mom) got her.

She wasn't too excited about the present I gave her but hopefully one day she will be! I started the "add a pearl" tradition of giving her a pearl each birthday. That way by the time she is eighteen she will have a full pearl necklace her aunt Jodi and uncle Tom have given her!

Me and Tom at the party

Tom and my mom

Next up was ANOTHER kid birthday party. This time for my best friend Melody and Brian's sons Carson and Finley. Carson turned 8 and Finley turned 3! Below are three of their four boys: Miles, Carson and Christopher. I should have known I couldn't get a serious smile out of all of them at once!

The two birthday boys!

Gift Time!

 As you can imagine its never boring with all four of them!

All in all it was a great weekend with great friends! Now my old self just needs a weekend to rest from my weekend!
