HELLO HALF BIRTHDAY!
Sorry for the shouting so early this morning but I am really excited.
Sorry for the shouting so early this morning but I am really excited.
I'm one of those incredibly obnoxious people that celebrates their half birthday. I think this is my favorite day of the year because it's usually great weather and I get notes and well wishes from the people who REALLY know my birthday (and know how to count +6 months from what facebook says).
I also really love half birthdays because I still get presents! In the past there's been dinner celebrations, cake and even once was an opportunity for me to introduce mom to a guy that I was dating (kind of - I didn't really introduce him that way).
What better way to celebrate a half birthday than to tell you a few of my week's favorites with Amanda?!
Favorite Half Birthday Gift
Thanks to mom and dad I now have another set of dumbbells to add to the family (3's and 5's owned currently).
I don't think I'll be doing My Favorite Arm Workout with 10's though.
Favorite Awkward
In traffic on Thursday morning I was stopped and was talking a double-chin selfie for my snapchat friends. I was beyond embarrassed when a cute boy in the car next to me was looking over and laughing at my attempt to take an incredibly unflattering photo of myself. What an idiot.
I blushed and aborted the mission - and instead took this one where I'm clearly blushing.
No, it wasn't the Blazers winning game 4 in round 2 of the playoffs (because they lost game 5) - it was the news that I won Kenzie's Smile Brightly Giveaway and have this LED kit coming next week!
Favorite Playlist I Found
A few weeks ago (maybe months I'm not sure) Brooke shared this song but it was recently pulled from Spotify - which made me really really upset.
In my quest to find it on YouTube I actually found an hour-long relaxing mix that includes a Kygo No Diggity - you've got to give this a listen!
That's enough for today - I'm a big fan of brief favorites/confessions these days. Don't they say less is more?

yyyeeeeaaaahhhh for adding the 10s to your weight family!!!! it's always so awesome when you bump up your weight. try the arm workout but do only half the reps, then add one more rep each time and watch your strength double fast. so awesome

I have NEVER won a giveaway no matter how many times I enter lol Also that selfie was cute and where are you seeing a double chin? Ill show you a real double chin if you want to see one ha!
less is definitely more. someone needs to drill that into my brain, i get so excited and want to post all the things, and all of my posts are far too long. stop it kris, stop it.
also that selfie is too freaking cute. that is a hilarious story as well, oh well! his loss you weren't sending either selfie to him, what what.
yay for 10lbs - you can totally do your arm workout in those! you're a badass.

You celebrate half birthdays right! I need to get on that bandwagon! And I have almost been caught snapchatting a few times at work. I think I would be mortified!
Wait... you get presents for your half birthday?! How do I get my friends to play along with this too?!
Oooo HAPPY HALF BIRTHDAY!!! Omg too funny about that double chin selfie mission. Reminds of when I was rocking out to Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer" and looked over only to see these guys looking over with "what in the eff is this girl doing?!" looks on their faces haha
bahaha love the awkward selfie moment - made my week basically. Congrats on the giveaway!!! Have a great weekend you half b-day celebrator you! xoxo
I love that you celebrate your half birthday! I already make such a big deal about my birthday I think people would start to think I've lost it if I start celebrating my half! Have a great weekend and check out the giveaway on my blog!

Happy half birthday!!!!! I'll celebrate with a drink on the plane!!! :) Enjoy it!
Half birthdays are the best!! I celebrated mine in January. Hint hint (heck yes I can't wait for July). Glad you got a fun weighty present and I think it might be dangerous to take those on the treadmill! Haha.
oh my gooood im so sad that i cant find any kygo on spotify.
also i love that you celebrate your half birthday and that y our family is in on it.
still laughing about you getting caught taking a double chin selfie! that is classic! wish i could see the guy's face.
and yay for winning a giveaway! you should've taken a snap video of you dancing like all those people who won on oprah!
1) i am sorry i forgot your half birthday, i am proud if i remember someone's real birthday. 2) i am pissed you didn't send the double chin snap. 3) i heart Kygo.
Happiest of Half Birthdays M'dear!!!!

Love that mix - so far (hasn't been an hour yet)! So awesome!
Welcome to the family ten pounders! I need to upgrade to some of those...I currently only have 5s and 8s.
Also, I am so guilty of thinking no one can see me in my car...only to realize the person beside me is staring like, WTF are you doing in there?
