Spaghetti Strap Dresses

I was going through old pictures and showing Sammy some of the atrocious outfits that I put together as a kid. There were some pretty bad ones. Then we stumbled across this picture, and I told Sammy that this is one of my favorite outfits.
I loved that red dress so much, especially paired with the black shirt, and don't forget the ankle bracelet! 
(This was my aunt Kristen's wedding, one of the best that I've been to. I spent the whole night hanging out with my cousin eating the mints my grandma made. I was so excited when she made them for my wedding, although I didn't eat thirty of them because I was a little busy.)

When Sammy saw this picture, and other pictures of me wearing this outfit though, he went on a rant. It was pretty hilarious, and went a little like this
"I HATE when people wear that! Either wear the spaghetti strap dress or don't. Don't do this half thing where you try to make it work. It looks horrible. There are lots of beautiful dresses out there with sleeves, just wear one of those instead of this crap. It's silly. It's like the Utah mom uniform. Actually, I read a whole article about how that's the Utah mom uniform. It was like 'It's almost summer, here come the women wearing tank tops over t-shirts.' Either wear the tank top by itself, or don't. 
Oh, they're not modest, so you can't wear them. Just get a pretty dress with sleeves instead."

I then argued with him saying that I didn't care, that I would wear that style anyways because I still like it and feel pretty in it. To which he said that he wouldn't kiss me all day if I was wearing that. He then kept repeating that above points and I just laughed and laughed, because it's so funny to see him get so passionate about something. 

So, sorry Sammy. I heard your rant, and your points, but if I find a cute spaghetti strap summer dress like this, I am going to wear it over a t-shirt. And then I'll tackle you so you have to kiss me :)

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
