Game Day Festivities!

Well today is the day my fellow CATS fans... I don't know if I will be able to contain myself until tonight to watch it! ahhhhh!! I am already prepared however...

My New " I Love Coach Cal" tshirt, courtesy of Fan Outfitters! (excuse the wrinkles ha)

No fear, I have completely taken care of Frankie's worries for the day also, by giving him a little blue too...
Is that the cutest thing you've ever seen or what? there's more...


I know! Adorable! What can I say? My son is a model, call me to book him! ;)

Chris's friends from Louisville & Utah, and my dad, are coming down to watch the game with us so we will more than likely enjoy a little pre-gaming beforehand at the house then go out. For those of you who know me, it does not matter who is planned to come to our house, I am a FREAK about making sure everything is clean, and in its proper place ha. Even though it's just our friends and family, I still like to have things in order... today I was busy doing lots of things and cleaned mostly everything this morning but just honestly did not have the strength or energy to finish the vacuum upstairs.... so BRACE YOURSELF PEOPLE... this is something you will never see again and was so crazy that I had to take pictures.....


Yes friends, that IS Chris, yes he IS running the vacuum, and no this is NO April Fools prank! Bless his heart. Now I will give him credit, his chores of the house are to unload the dishwasher (wish I absolutely despise doing) and to tend to all the trash (somehow we accumulate enough trash that our garbage man prob thinks we have 15 people living in our house???). He does them well, and it does make me happy I do not have to do those two things with all the other million things I do ... I know I was in for trouble when we have had our front loading washer & dryer for about a year now, and a few weeks ago I asked him to go throw something in the dryer for me... when I went to take it out, it was in the washing machine!!! LOL he didn't even know which was which for Pete's sake! Boy, I am such a blessing in his life ;)

Even though we will try to go somewhere to watch the game (love going out but do NOT love the idea of going somewhere at 4pm to get a seat, and sit for 5 hours pre-game, then be there another 3 hours during game! these places really need reservations ... so much easier people!) I have decided to make one of my favorite game day snacks to enjoy pre-game! (thanks Chrissy!)...

BUFFALO CHICKEN DIP
 (so much for the diet ugh!)
Recipe is as follows, so easy, you will LOVE it:
2 large cans of chicken
1 thing of cream cheese
1 cup of ranch
1 cup of Frank's hot sauce
3/4 cup of shredded cheese

Mix it all together (minus the cheese) in a baking dish, then sprinkle the cheese on top, Bake it @ 350degrees until the cheese is melted.
Serve with tortilla chips, crackers, wheat thins, whatever your little heart fancies... and ENJOY!


Now this next thing has GOT to be the funniest thing I have seen in a very long time... stolen from a facebook friend (Mike Huff, he reserves all rights and royalties when this becomes famous)!  Lately we have all been lovin us some JORTS! So funny thats something we have hated for years... (I remember that being one of my numero uno rules when seeing a guy...if he is anywhere close to having jorts on... dunzo, period.the.end.) So today when I saw this, I laughed, then fell in love....

bahahahahahahahaha
WHEN we win the championship... I will be taking orders for these lovely flags for all of the BBN to fly in celebration! ;) (not really, but Mike & Alicia maybe you should and we could all be rich!)
 I can see it now, "Jorts Flags, coming to a store near you!"

Here's to a great Saturday, a great WIN and to all the JORTS lovers out there!
Ohhh C-A-T-S, Cats! Cats! Cats!

Mom, Birthday & Teen Mom 2 (random I know)

    Today I am up early ... Thursdays are always SO early because we get up early to get the girls ready for school, so if you ever wonder why on Thursdays I am a zombie that is why lol. I have been having major sleep issues and can't go to sleep before 1am!! I just can not function on 5 hours of sleep...at least not as a nice person anyway. Yesterday I didn't leave the house, all day! I decided to stay in, clean, do laundry, do some work on the computer, clean out drawers, etc. It felt good to not put make up on or fix my hair for a day I must admit...and to just be able to get things done! I think we all need and deserve those days every once in a while!

Today, a local UK Fraternity that has done wonderful charity work around the city, is being recognized and honored for their hard work with a total makeover for their basement in the frat house... awesome! Even better, my mom was chosen as the Interior Designer ...
Cute little work picture haha

I am going to support her this morning and, lets be honest, because the news and ESPN will be there and filming the whole thing and I can't miss something huge like that lol.... so more to come on this, I will take pics and post them later today or tomorrow for everyone to see! Should be fun!

Do you watch Teen Mom 2??? If so... you will die at what was just released...
While just watching the news, well kind of facebooking and listening to the news on the TV, ha I just saw this... I am almost ashamed that I will be giving it views by posting but still...WARNING it is the trashiest thing you will ever watch and I am sorry for passing this classless act to you lol
(mute my playlist at the bottom first)


OMG are you dying? What a FREAK! I couldn't stand her on the show because I would get goosebumps when her and her even trashier mom would scream and yell at each other in front of Jace (1 yr old) ughh it would drive me crazy! Then she met Kieffer... what a TOTAL loser...and now she is beating up some girl like a true trashbag and letting it be video taped for the whole world to see. Wonder if they will ask her about it next Tuesday night on the after the show finale? Gross. Period the end. Gross.

On a brighter note, today would have been my Mamaw's 84th birthday... it has been almost 2 years since she passed and I miss her bunches! She was so funny and always smiling and just made you feel warm and cozy to be around (except for towards the end, she had Alzheimer's, and sometimes she would say crazy embarrassing things that literally you couldn't help but laugh at but really wanted to crawl under a table lol). I know she is having the best birthday yet today and in such a better place :)

This was one of her last birthdays... maybe 3 or 4 years ago She looks so happy though :)

This is one of my favorites, me mom and mamaw with our sunglasses on haha

So cute :)

She got to meet Frankie!! aww... this was right when we got him so he was a grease pot bc he couldn't get groomed yet lol but he does have on a green Polo you just can't see it ;)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMAW! xoxox

Lastly, I made a facebook fan page for one of my builder accounts yesterday... please "Like" it .... especially if you are a Lexington friend, lol I appreciate your support and need to get some followers... you can click the link below:



Have a great day! PS. I think Greys is new tonight :)

When I Grow Up...

I know I have shared this on facebook... I stole it from a friend...but it always makes me laugh and on this nasty "Winter but it is Spring what the heck is going on" day outside... I thought everyone might could use a good laugh too....

 
In this photo:
 
This note accompanied this first graders homework assignment on parental occupations
Dear Ms. Davis,

I want to be perfectly clear on my child's homework illustration. It is NOT of me on a dance pole on a stage in a strip joint surrounded by male customers with money. I work at Home Depot and had commented to my daughter how much money we made in the recent snowstorm.

This drawing is of me selling a shovel.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Harrington
 
And just for fun... in case you haven't alread seen... our KY Wildcats are pretty much famous and all the celebs want to be us ha... even Jay-Z for petes sake! LOVE it!

Happy Tuesday Friends!

What a weekend


What a weekend.... Shew!
Here's to the CATS! But first...
 
On Friday I had the privilege of closing a house with some wonderful first time home buyers!! Congratulations to Michelle Silver & Matt Havlin (stole your pic from fbook ha sorry but thanks!)
 
They were so great to work with and bought a beautiful house that will be perfect for them! I love working with first time buyers, it is the most fun experience! Please keep me in mind if you know anyone I greatly appreciate referrals!
 
What a game on Friday night...
I think the entire city of Lexington was up all night watching and then too totally pumped to go to bed! It was intense the entire game I felt like...but at least we pulled it off and no thanks to these guys...

Jorts!!! He was the man! We absolutely could not have done it without him...!! Love Him!
 
Then tonight's game... Another Win! FINAL FOUR baby woohoo!
 





 
If I am lucky, maybe I will be blogging from Houston in a week LOL :)
 
Since it's Sunday and RHWOC comes on tonight, I felt the need to do a little ditty about them this season because I haven't done so yet. Be warned...next pictures could include some soft porn from last weekend's episode HAHA
Ohhh Tamara... how you have shown your true colors....classless!

I am so over her I can't stand it! Ugh. Words can't describe. I used to give her the benefit of the doubt because I did sometimes think Simon was a little bit of a control freak... but now I see why... look at her ha. Gross. Get a room, preferably off TV.
 
As for Gretchen, I do like her!! Im just not too sure about Slade... what do you all think? I think he may be fame-hungry...but I think he really loves her and she loves him! So whatever makes her happy :)



And for Vickie, I feel sorry for her that her and Don are getting a divorce... I do like them, and I feel like they were doing so good and working it out.
Maybe they will re-unite before next season lol you never know!

This is random but I forgot to share that I went to a charity event last week called Bids for Kids, my great sweet friend Noreen took me and it was so nice and such a good time. There was a silent auction (which I love, they are so fun!) but somehow this was the only thing I ended up coming home with...

A BIG basket of goodies for my baby! Treats (which made his butt throw up all night ha sorry if that was TMI), lots of toys and bones and even a new bottle of cologne! He loved it! (Hence the posing next to it for a quick photo op) <3 his little heart!

At church this morning, Ava said in her class she was asked to draw a picture of herself somewhere she is happy... and she chose the beach...this was her picture...


Look at her bikini hahahahaha is that the funniest thing you have ever seen?! So sweet! I don't know what is funnier, the fact that the bathing suit looks like it is from Vicki's and she has huge boobs (she is 6yrs old) HA or the fact that she did this artistic rendering at CHURCH! LOL too funny. made me laugh.

And lastly but very importantly... I will be putting on a NEW listing tomorrow! Great house for sale for all you Lexington friends... more to come later, but here is a sneak peek ;)

It's Spring time!

It's Spring....
and boy am I oh-so ready for the warm weather!
(not the allergies and headache I had the past two days however)
 
This warmness is getting me excited about so many things: people are out buying houses (yayyy! two offers this week so far), I can clean out my car and not get frost bite, go for walks (I wore work out clothes two days this week and did not work out one single bit, story of my life), Frankie can play outside with his friends...
 Frankie & Lucy-Belle hanging out at the park
Frankie & his cousin (mom's dog) Barlcay enjoying a ride with the windows down :)
 
and... Easter, my fave holiday, is right around the corner...however this has brought a few negatives into my life:
I have eaten one of these every night before bed ugh take.them.away.please (no not really babe if you're reading this ha)
 
I got these ridiculously good cookies for the kids (and bc they have a theme and I love themes lol) and can crush 4-5 in one sitting... not good people!
 
HOWEVER - Spring is exciting because it is time to clean out the old and get some new things!! These are things I am lusting over right now that are def my Spring Must Have's!!!
 
 LOVE this Lily dress in white, must have, so cute....
 This Lily Dress is so cute too... obsessed... I die (when does Rachel Zoe come back on? love her!)
 And both of these Lily's too.... in two colors haha love how simple they are and comfy looking!


Since my mom stole my black Tory Burch's haha she will need to be getting me a new pair, and I am thinking I want tan and gold :) Thanks Lynda.
Since everyone has been talking about these dang Clarisonics and how great their skin is looking thanks to this thing, I guess I will have to fork up the $149 and see what all the hype is about lol and I like this limited edition cute printed one too!
 


This body? Um yes please! haha. That is unrealistic I realize, so I will just take all 3 of these swimsuits from Vicki's for vaca and the pool this summer!
 
In attempt to getting "summer swim suit ready" I REALLY need to invest back into the only workout that I have ever enjoyed and get my butt back to....

It is really the only workout that I could see fast results from, and I am a lover of instant gratification. 

Along with my wants, our patio is also is some need of new cushions and pillows... I love ALL of these from Ballards so that will be a tough decision to make.... ;)

Don't even begin to think I forgot my sweet angel... Frankie needs new Spring attire as well and these are the colors he will be getting :)

 Hahaha how cute are those? He already has a green & blue but they are looking a little worn.

I think that's it for now :) However I did see this picture today and laughed outloud to myself and thought I would share if you haven't already seen it... Happy Wednesday!


PS. THANK YOU PinkLouLou for the shout out today, look at my followers....wow I am so super excited!
