I saw this over at Rachel's blog, and thought I would do it for fun too.
1. When do you feel happiest?
Friends and family are the 2 things that make me the happiest.
Like watching Simon grow up.
and how much fun my Dad has with him.
Being there for my Grandpa's 84th birthday party.
Having friends surprise me with amazing gifts!
I was THRILLED after opening a box from Elsie & Rachel today!! Made my day. Just look at that quilt!! Not to mention the most amazing diaper bag I ever did see.
hmmm, I try to nap when I'm feeling exhausted, eat well, make time for friends, spend time with family, and be creative whenever I can.
3. Are you internally (by yourself) or externally (by others) motivated?
I would say a bit of both. When I get an idea, all I can think about is that until I put a plan into action. I'm very externally motivated when I'm with inspiring people, such as spending a weekend with the RVA girls. I can motivate myself when I want to, but sometimes I need a push from friends, or my husband, to get something done.
4. What do you do for fun?

6. What is something you're proud of?
6. What is something you're proud of?
My husband, Ryan.
He works, and then comes home and does all the paperwork for the salon and other responsibilities that go along with owning a business behind the scenes. He's the reason we can own McKenna Salon & Spa, and make it work. We're a good team. So I guess I could say I'm proud of our teamwork as well.

Sometimes you just have to tell yourself it's a 10 day, right? Even if it's really a 8 or 9.

What about you? Copy & paste for your own blog post if you like, or feel free to answer in the comments. :)
Thanks for asking, Rachel!
ps: thinking that D may have dropped now...
can't tell for sure, but seems like it.
10 is also true for me.
ReplyDeleteWhoa you have some generous friends.. that diaper bag.. WOW. lucky you.
I was wondering, what brand/where is the diaper bag from?? I"m looking for the perfect one.

Colleen: The bag is Orla Kiely, from the 'Etc.' line. I'm not sure where it's from though. I do know that it's fabulous though!
ReplyDeleteBefore I knew I was going to receive one as a gift, I was looking at Jujube. Their new line bags made of earth leather are super nice.
I would totally use the diaper bag as a regular bag, it's so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing with Starbucks, haha. My sister and I are addicted to green tea frappechinos. :p
