Holly is All Over the Place

Tonight is the season finale of Big Brother. I'm hoping for a Dan/Ian Final 2-- but can't decide who I want to win. Dan is tha man... with an "a" at the end of the... THA Man. :)

----

I got to go to the baseball game last night with my best friends from college. Every year for Hogan's birthday, we go to a Cardinal game. Usually we are sitting in the bleachers directly in the sun, sweating out our $10 beers.

This year, my brother in law's team was in town... So of course, I have to be that family member begging requesting for the best seats in the house. Not being a big sports fan, it was still an awesome experience... but for some die-hard Cardinal fans, it was the equivalent of taking 11 year old Holly to a Hanson concert.

During the game, I also got to meet my blog friend Jessica! She had a photo on instagram with a funny caption, so I showed it to my friends. Monica was like, "She is here. That is a picture of the section right there!"



We met during an inning break... and she was so nice! {Hi Jessica and the girls at Sprint!}

We snuck around the clubhouse downstairs and took pictures like tourist. :)

----

I have everyone listed as a celebrity in my phone, depending on their name. Here are some funny text messages from Chris.



Chris is "Chris Farley".... Aly is "Aly McBeal... Hogan is "Hulk Hogan".... Emily is "Emily Blunt"... Monica is "Monica Lewinsky"... Amy is "Amy Winehouse"...:)

I still need to find a new computer bag.

----

THANK YOU for all of the comments on my Shred post. Wow... I've never received that many comments before and I have read them over and over. You guys are great motivation for me. I am so glad that I stuck with it-- I can honestly say, for the first time in a long time, that I am happy with my weight.

----

Best $17 I've spent in a long time... But it's not going to make it to Halloween, so I'll probably have to buy another one.



----

And finally... I am thinking about putting sponsors on the blog. My only reasoning is that I really want to have a slumber party with Aly and Mama L go to Blissdom in March.

Only kicker? I'm in the poor house. Poor house meaning that daycare is my number one expense every month... and yearly "tuition" is equivalent to a year at a private college.

So to meet my goal, I need to start sponsors in October. If you're interested in a charity case, just shoot me an email! :)

Happy Wednesday!!

  6. I see you found a Captain America costume! Yay! I LOVE BB! I can't wait for the finale! I want Dan to win, but I have a feeling the jury house is full of people that hold grudges and will vote with "heart" versus who actually played the best game, which HAS to be Dan!

  10. I grew up in St. Louis so I still heart the Cardinals, but haven't been to a game in forever. Looks like you had fun. The Captain America costume is too cute, I have to figure out what to dress Emmeline up as for Halloween. This will be her first year trick-or treating!

  11. I kinda really wished you lived in the house across the street and I could babysit your kids and I'm certain that would save you a pretty chunk of change but I'd be making more babysitting your kids than I'm making now so it would be huge Win-Win situation.

    The house 424 (and the name of the street I live on) is the newest house on the market on our street. They are asking roughly 137K. There are no photos online yet. 1500 sq/ft...which is roughly 300sq/ft larger than the house we are in.

  12. Thanks for reminding me i need to freaking get costume, or she's going to have to go naked door to door. Arghhh I wanna go to Blissdom, it's right down the street AND it's on my bday, what's better than hanging out at the Gaylord having fun?? I may need to find a second husband before then....

  13. You crack me up!! I love the celebrity names! I'm pretty sure my son would just die and want to have play dates with your son 18 times a day if he saw that pic of him! He just got the spiderman muscle costume for his birthday. Obsessed!

  14. First off, take Aly's Michael Kor's bag, or I'm going to take it first.
    Second, you ROCKED that 30DS and I'm super proud of you.
    Third, I love my celebrity name! :) Thanks dear!
    And last, Haven could not be cuter in that costume, I guess super heros are where it's at this year, we're dressing Cooper as Super Man.

  15. TEAM DAN!! I was reading on the feeds this AM and his speech looks great! I think he will clinch it!

  16. Way to get awesome seats at the game!! I love baseball...so I'm a tad jealous. I seriously love that you have people in your phone as celebrities!! Can I please have Captain America shipped to Texas??? He is stinkin' adorable.

  17. You're an Ally McBeal fan???? I'm watching her right now (as I type this) on Netflix. Been watching 1 or 2 episodes every afternoon while the little man is napping.

    Great costume! I picked my boys' up today but they will not hear about it until almost Halloween -- my little guy thinks as soon as we have them we get to go get candy, and I can't take over a month of tantrums when I tell him no, it's not time yet. :)

  18. Again, it was AMAZE BALLS to meet you in person! It was crazy to meet the person i read about, and look up to in my struggles with weight loss, and just life in general. I was honestly "star struck" lol and I could not shut up to my husband about it. FYI i made this post the background to my computer to show him... ya know the subtle way. But you and your friend were super nice and the girls at sprint were pretty excited to see your post today too!! :)
