i gave my husband a haircut and he didn't even cry

Wednesday, January 23, 2013


It may not show on his face, but he was pumped. I mentioned here that I have always wanted to cut hair for a living. May I point out that I never said I am good at cutting hair, I just enjoy it. 

I used to cut my Dad's hair. Don't laugh when I tell you that he is basically bald.

I also cut my girlfriend's hair in high school. Never leave a bunch of high school girls alone in a hotel room...they will all come out with shorter hair. We used to get the urge to chop our locks when we would go watch the baseball team in playoffs. The parents would get us our own hotel room, we would sneak out and drive to Wal-Mart to buy scissors (scandalous, huh?!), go back to the room and get to cuttin'. 

Now, I am married to my prince who lets me cut his hair. He always says, "If it's that bad we can just buzz it!" I don't even want to picture that. Plus I have added pressure that Chris now goes to fancy dinners with clients. I don't want him to be the goober at the table with the janky hair cut!


So how do you think I did?!

Don't base your opinion on the wonderful look my husband insisted on giving me. That boy has the most adorable smile and pearly whites, yet he always gives me this look. What.a.terd.

Honey, you give me this look. I put it on the blog.

Oh, and don't mind the long sleeved t-shirt wrapped around his shoulders as a bib. We keep it classy at the Tucker house. About .00078 seconds after I finished I realized we have a bib in the closet. It came with the hair cutting kit. Oops!

Happy Thursday! Aka, almost Friday! Aka, the day we leave for Boston! 

Have a wonderful day!

WIWW: Purple and Polka Dots + Link Up




Who doesn't love a little sidewalk picture action? Ummmm, me. I literally stood at our front door, waited until no cars were coming...ran outside with Chris...snapsnapsnapsnapsnapsnap...and ran back inside. Whew.

I am normally never embarrassed. Honestly, not much embarrasses me, but for some reason taking random pictures on the sidewalk is embarrassing to me. I mean I have to see the people that drive by almost everyday. Okay, that is an exaggeration, but I don't want to be "that" couple that is always outside taking pictures...of the wife on a sidewalk. Weird. 

Now for what I am wearing.

Hello? Did anyone notice that adorable polka dotted blazer?! (swoon)

That blazer came home with me a couple days before Christmas. On my "need to get before resolution starts" list was blazers. I am afraid that I may have to meet with clients more this year, or even be assigned to work at the client's office...in which case I would be asked to wear a suit everyday. Blah. Let's pray that doesn't happen, but if it does, I need to be prepared

This was the only polka dotted blazer in site...ON THE SALE RACK! When I picked it up I saw that it was an extra small. I am small, but in some ways I am built like a softball player. I don't think it is a bad thing, being that I played that sport in college, but let's just say I haven't fit in an extra small in yearsss...yada yada...what I am trying to say is that I am normally not an extra small. 

I am still not even convinced I am an extra small, but I fit in the jacket and that's all.that.matters. I mean I can't hug anyone, or pull my arms across my body, or even type at my computer because I am afraid at any given moment the back will split, BUT the important thing is that I am the proud owner of an adorable polka dotted blazed. Plus it was only $12.68 sooo...Winning. 




And now for the normal par-tayyy. You know the drill.

Facts.

Tuesday, January 22, 2013


- This man is my best friend. Seriously. Not only can he make me the happiest girl in the world, but he can really piss me off sometimes....then he does this ridiculous dance (honey, you know what I am talking about!) and then I giggle uncontrollably and I reeeeally want to still be mad, but I can't. He definitely has my heart.

- I have always wanted to be a cosmetologist. I want to do hair and make up all day long. 

- I would move to NYC yesterday if I could afford an apartment bigger than my closet in Texas. Therefore, we will be staying in Texas. 

- I want an English Bulldog, badly, but the thought of paying over a thousand dollars for a dog when so many need to be adopted pains me. Plus we already have two mutts that rule our world. We would hate to mess with the vibes we already have goin'. 

- I knew my whole life I would marry a baseball player. Everyone has their "style" and mine was baseball boys. It had a couple strike outs, but I ended up with a  grand slam (like how I tied that together? pat on the back for me! haha!)

- I used to be really worried about what other people thought about me. Then I grew up and realized that I have my quality friends who love me no matter what. That was that. 

- I want a Range Rover. I know call me materialistic, blah, blah, blah, but no one said I was ever getting one. I just want one really bad. Honey?

- I want four kids. Period.

- My Meme was one of the most important people in my life and I miss her daily. I am still coping with her loss. It is tough, no doubt about that. 

- If you talk to one of my best friends they will tell you that I am the girl they go to when they want honest advice. Right, Desirae?? Honesty is the best policy and lying to those close to you is no bueno. I may be blunt, but I am honest.

- I have really weird thoughts that someone is going to come in the house and get me after Chris leaves for work in the mornings. Even though we have an alarm system, two dogs, and a gun by the bed (Chris has his CHL, no worries peeps.) I still freak. Like yesterday, I woke up at 5:30am when he told me goodbye because the horrible thought were consuming my brain. Ugh.

- Reality TV is my weakness.

- I have never actually gone on a diet.

- I once ran a half marathon and hated every minute of it. 

- I went to Camp Longhorn and so did Hilary and Haylie Duff, and the Bush twins. Pretty cool if you ask me.

- I am not afraid to speak in front of a crowd or act goofy at the drop of a hat. I am usually the first one on the dance floor and drag some unwilling human out there with me.

- I love God and all that He has given me. I need to worship Him more and be more obedient in scripture. I am working on it.

- I once got accused of putting gum in a girl's hair in first grade. I honestly didn't do it. 

There ya have it...a whole bunch of rando facts that you probably didn't need to know!
