Five Question Thank God it's Friday!

(sorry Kat, I swear I had to visit your blog like 6 times to copy the questions over..my brain is not functioning properly today)

Anyways! It's Friday and I like the 5 question Friday theme as hopefully it lets you get to know me a little more!

1. Would you ever vacation alone?
My first reaction was to say, "of course I could, peace, quiet and a good mani/pedi!". But really as I thought about it, I kind of feel like vacations are made to share! When I was a kid we would go on trips just us, but a lot of times we went with friends. It was fun to share in the adventure with others and made it that much more memorable.

2. Do you go the speed limit?
ah, no. not really ever. except maybe the time I was learning to drive. That might be about it.

3. Why did I start blogging/following blogs?
I started following Mandy's blog because I missed her. She lived in the US and was not really that close to me, but ever since she moved across an OCEAN, I have missed her more. So I always would read her blog and see pics of my favorite niece and her wonderful mommy and daddy. I thought it was super cool that Brooklyn would have all of this to look back on. I probably started blogging because I needed a release. I have some very old posts that reflect a much angrier, unhappy me. It then became a place that I found new fabulous friends and a connection with others. Now it serves as a way to keep grandmas and grandpas posted on the things happening here and making sure they are in Paighton's life!

4. Where do you shop for yourself?
If I had a ton of money, I shop where else? COACH. There is just something about a fabulous, classic handbag. It never gets to tight, it's always in style, and it goes with you everywhere.

Since I don't have a ton of money (see previous post), I shop at Ann Taylor Loft. Really haven't bought much for myself lately. Most of my money goes to Carters/Gymboree/Children's Place. Dang you super cute spring collections! :)

5. What was the song you danced to with your spouse at your wedding?
At the risk of being ridiculed FOREVER, I am going to have to admit, I don't remember. Is that horrible? AHHHH! Sorry honey. For those of you at my wedding that might remember, please let me know. :) Please know that there are many, many songs that remind me of us. Case in point:
a) "You and I" and "Everything" by Michael Buble
b) "Have a little faith in me" by John Hiatt

Lately, there has been lots of songs by Coldplay that remind me of us. I didn't really like Coldplay until Ryan introduced me to them. We have been to see them in concert twice now and I would see them again in a heartbeat. (keep in mind I also have Ashley Tisdale, Mercy Me and Flo Rida on my Ipod. I am an equal opportunity Itunes buyer :) )

Not much planned for the weekend and I'm pretty sure that's perfectly okay with me. My family will be here in less than a month now and that makes me VERY happy.

I had to use my lifeguard skills at work today, it was very interesting, but is a story for another post.

Love to you all!!

I think you danced to "At Last" by Etta James? I think?

It was 'AT Last' I can't believe you don't remember because you made such a big deal about that song...
