ABC’s of Me

March 1, 2011 | Uncategorized

Hi! It’s GORGEOUS outside! I mean, couldn’t ask for a more beautiful day. My mom and I went to breakfast at the Broken Egg, then walked 2 miles on the lakefront. Then came home and I ran 4 miles. I am about to go back outside just because its so pretty! I will post pictures from breakfast and the lakefront tomorrow. Today I thought I would jump on the bandwagon and do the ABC’s! So, here we go!

A: Age: 25

B: Bed size: King, and it is tempurpedic heaven

C. Chore you hate: hanging up clothes. Not sure why, but I make Bobby do his own because I despise it so much.

D. Dogs: Two toy poodles, Sassy (9) an Bella (almost 3)

E. Essential start to your day:Coffee thanks to my mom and her Keurig, and puppy kisses.

F. Favorite color: it changes but I always love pink and aqua blues.

G. Gold or silver: White gold

H: Height: 5’9” yes I am tall. Bobby is 6’2” so I don’t look tall in pictures because he is tall, too.

I: Instruments that you can play: um..I played piano for a year in 3rd grade before I switched to basketball.

J: Job title: blogger

K: Kids: we already discussed the two furry ones…

L: Live: moving to the Mississippi Gulf Coast this weekend!

M: Mom’s name: Mary Katherine, but since she was born everyone called her Kathy…makes no sense if you ask me.

N: Nicknames: Heath, used to be “little Bridges” “Bridges” or “bird legs”

O: Overnight hospital stays: Nada

P: Pet peeve: I could go on and on….But here are a couple…Old people driving/running me over with their Cadillac’s in my parents neighborhood when I am trying to run….people who interrupt me when I talk or aren’t listening to me because they are already trying to think of the next thing they want to say…copycats/people who can’t think for themselves.

Q: Quote from a movie: “I’ve not nipples Focker, can you milk me?” haha! Not necessarily my fav. but its all I could come up with.

R: Righty or lefty: Right is right!

S: Sibling: one older sister who is 27 and looks nothing like me. I like to tell her she was adopted.

T: Time you wake up: it varies, but between 7:00 and 8:00

U: Underwear: yes please. Unless I am wearing a running skirt!

V: Vegetables you dislike: Not a huge veggie fan…so most..really..I know I am a bad health blogger! I do eat them even though I don’t like them!

W: What makes you run late: I am rarely late, usually early, but if I am late it’s usually my husband’s fault because he is never ready on time…

X: X-rays: back, ankles, teeth, neck….

Y: Yummy food you make: I love to bake! cookies, muffins, cakes, yum!

Z: Zoo favorite animal: Monkeys. They make me laugh.

Well there ya go! Sorry I a quite boring and don’t have any cool stories that go along with mine. I could make something up, but that would be lying. So I won’t. Anyway, look for yet ANOTHER giveaway coming up hopefully next week! I hope your day is as pretty as mine, so get out there and enjoy it if it is!

I’m not suggesting you go into debt to go on vac I’m not suggesting you go into debt to go on vacation. But I am suggesting you remember that time is something you can’t get back, and memories are something that will stay with you longer than things. 🚢 

As we enter the holiday season, maybe it’s time to consider that long overdue vacation instead of quite so many things under the tree? Maybe a few less items for some time away to rest and recharge with loved ones?

@disneycruiseline is great for just that because they truly have something for everyone, from babies, kids, to adults. The cruise we just went on included beach time, pool time, an obstacle course, lots of eating, basketball, foosball, ping-pong, movie, watching, scavenger hunt finding, pirates (the nice kind!), ice cream, and so much more. ✨🫶🏻 

Always happy to answer questions about the most magical cruise line around! 

#disneycruise #disneycruiseline #disneywish #disneyvacation
🚢 A vacation should actually feel like a vacati 🚢 A vacation should actually feel like a vacation right? I hear too many people coming home from vacations with their kids that say they are exhausted and now need another vacation from their vacation. 

This is why I love @disneycruiseline. 💖

They have kids clubs included in the price of your cruise fare* that are open for a lot of the day and late into the night. This allows for adults only time at the adults only pool, restaurants, bars, and nightclubs. Not to mention, the kids absolutely have a blast. Mine never wanted to leave! 🫶🏻

it’s a win-win situation in my book. They get to go have some fun with other kids, and I get to relax and recharge on my vacation, and then we can also spend quality family time together as well! ✨

Send this to someone you are trying to convince to go on a DCL cruise with you! 😏

*included in cruise fare for kids clubs, not the nursery which is an extra charge.

We absolutely love Orange Beach, it’s one of our We absolutely love Orange Beach, it’s one of our favorite places to visit and feels like home. 🫶🏻

There are so many great businesses with employees that make you feel like family. Here are a few we visited over fall break. Be sure to save this for your next visit to the beach! Have you been to any of these places? 🍊 

@coastalorangebeach: Not only a beautiful restaurant right on the gulf with amazing food, drinks, and servers, but also a really great store with amazing merch! We found some great stuff. If you go to the restaurant, ask for J-Mac to be your server and make sure to get a bushwhacker with a peanut butter floater! 😋 

@florabama_olerivergrill : Right on the bama/Florida line, this fun restaurant boasts beautiful sunsets, a fun cocktail menu (the key lime colada was amazing!) and you can even rent pontoon boats and jet skis from the marina, or take a dolphin cruise! 🐬 

@theorangebeachstore : I’ve passed this store 100 times but this was my first time inside and now I’m mad that I have been missing out all this time. They have a beautiful selection of really nice souvenirs from great brand names you already know and love. Great quality clothing and other things like blankets, cup, hats, and candles. I shopped forever! 

@fbyachtclub_ : The Flora Bama Yacht club is also right on the state line on the bay side and has fun live music, a really nice menu including crab claws, hummus, chicken pasta, and key lime pie. Service was great and we loved the live music. 

Thank y’all for having us! ✨

Holiday shopping days with my mini me are some of Holiday shopping days with my mini me are some of my favorite traditions. ✨☕ 
From grabbing coffee to wandering through the decorated stores, there’s just something magical about this season. We laughed, made memories, and even managed to cross a few names off our list. 🎄 (ad) 

One of our favorite stops was Reeds at West Town Mall, where I spotted the new Victorinox Air Pro — a watch that’s Swiss-made with incredible craftsmanship, a stainless steel case, shock + water resistance, and even the ability to track 3 time zones at once. 🙌 It’s modern, timeless, and such a meaningful find for the men in my life.

The best part? Ending the day with full shopping bags, full hearts, and a gift I know will be worn and treasured for years. 💫 @victorinoxnorthamerica
