Day 24 Blog Challenge

Day 24: what in my purse. 
I already wrote about this in an earlier post and its the exact same. So I will tell you all about my Memorial Day weekend. 

I got pretty sick on Friday with a migraine. I got home from work and fell asleep for a while hoping it would go away but nope, I woke up and it was worse. I tried to eat something so I could take some medicine without getting sick but I couldn't keep anything down. My eyes were so sensitive to any light and walking made my head feel like it was going to explode! I hate these headaches. I have gone to the doctor for them before but can never get any answers. 
Saturday- thank goodness I woke up without the headache! I got up around 7:45 and headed out to spend the day at the lake with Shaliece and her family. Zach had to work. It was so fun and Zach ended up getting off early so he came down and we spent the night camping. All day Sunday we were on the boat. I love wake boarding and we even got to try wake surfing and I loved it! We got home around 9:30 Sunday night. 
Monday- we did some much needed yard work. It's nice to get that done but we still have lots more to do! We went and saw The Hangover Part 3. It was pretty funny.

Day 22 Blog Challenge

Day 22: bullet my whole day. 
May 20, 2013
-woke up at 4:45 am and went to the gym. Worked out my shoulders and did some cardio. 
- showered and got ready for work. Got to work at 7:15 am. 
- I have a schedule for eating throughout the day. When I get to work I eat a Greek yogurt and then at 9 I usually have a carb snack, today it was animal crackers. At 10:30 I eat fruit, today it was raspberries. 
- at work we usually bring left overs to share with a group. Lunch was at 12:30 and my favorite co-worker brought some yummy lasagna! I brought some left overs that I made in the crockpot on Sunday, it was a chicken dish and I didn't really like it left over so didn't eat it.
- I left work at 3 today because I belong to a Bunco group and it was at my house tonight. 
Bunco is a dice game played by 12 women. We meet on the 4th Monday of each month. Each of the 12 members take a month to host and they cook dinner for everyone and then we play the game. I enjoy it a lot and I am in 2 groups now. It's a fun night out with friends and you get to try everyone's cooking!
- I made pulled pork, a recipe from my dad and it was great! He is definitely a better cook then me but I try. I also made Italian pasta salad, baked beans and made a couple lettuce salads. It was pretty good and everyone seemed to like it :)
- I cleaned up and went to bed. It was a busy day!

Day 20 Blog Challenge

Day 20: the meaning behind my blog name. 

It was stressful to choose a name! When I made this blog that was the first thing I had to do and I had no idea what to name it. 

I made the title of the blog Mr&MrsSmith for obvious reasons. We will soon be Mr and Mrs Smith and this blog is mostly about me and also Zach. 

The website of the blog is kristagiggles.blogspot. I chose this because that is my thing, I giggle. Everyone will agree with that! I do it so much I don't even realize it but it always seems like everyone will point it out. I giggle when I'm happy or sad. It just always seems to come out of me. I always get called giggles as a nickname.

Day 19 Blog Challenge

Day 19: another picture of myself. 


I took this pic at work today. I feel like I was having a good hair day :) love when that happens!

I will tell you guys about my birthday. I turned 24 last Tuesday. We went to Las Vegas for the weekend on the 3rd and stayed there until Monday. It was nice to spend time with my family for Mother's Day and my birthday. On Monday when we got home we met with a photographer and booked our wedding date, that was a weight lifted off my shoulders. 
On Tuesday I was really busy at work from taking a couple days off so it went by pretty fast. When Zach got off he came home and took me to dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings and we walked around Scheels after. It was a nice relaxing night. 
My sister took me to the Melting Pot on Wednesday. I had never been there before and it was quite yummy and a lot of fun doing the fondue. 
I got a lot of cash gifts because everyone knew I wanted some new cloths. I went shopping last weekend and bought some jeans and a shirt from H&M and some sweat pants, a jacket and some bras from Victorias Secret. I still have some money left and want to buy some shoes. :)

Day 18 Blog Challenge

Day 18: something I crave a lot. 

Zach and I went to Buffalo Wild Wings about a month ago for the first time. I am obsessed with Parmesan and with garlic so it would only be fitting that I order the Parmesan garlic wings, boneless of course. They were awesome! And I haven't stopped talking about them since. Zach took me to eat there on my birthday this past week and it was perfect. 

I also crave ice cream a lot. My favorite is Cheesecake Fantasy from Coldstone. It is cheesecake ice cream with strawberries, blueberries and graham cracker crumbs in it. We recently decided to stop eating so much dessert though. So I guess I am only gonna get this treat every once on a while :(. Wha!!! Haha
