Expanding My Horizons

It's a red letter day, as: A) I'm up, eaten my breakfast, and almost had entire an entire cup of coffee and Tanner is still sleeping. B) I have time to myself C) Mom is coming in tonight to stay with us for the weekend!

I'm patting myself on the back for moving beyond Bravo for a few precious hours of my week.

My obsession as of late:

 My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding

This show is almost too much. Almost. These girls (and they are girls, not ladies) are fascinating. They do really smart stuff like brushing their teeth with household bleach and spend mucho $$$ on dresses, parties and hair gel. You know, all the important stuff in life.

Also making the cut: True Blood, Game Of Thrones re-runs and Don't Be Tardy For The Wedding (ok, one Bravo show).

We also tune in to these shows every day.

God bless Ina Garten. I love her collection of button down shirts, gorg Hamptons estate, and devotion to Jeffrey.

*Just because I watch this does not mean I've taken up cooking. Sorry, Mark!

Mildly entertaining. Wendy is pretty outrageous and likes to call people on their stuff. Controversy/drama? I'll watch it.

What I've Been Up To

Well, things have been quite busy the past two weeks in the McCall household! Lots of new and exciting things going on. Namely this one:

My parents left Charleston to head back home. Their help was invaluable and we were just a tad nervous to be on our own. But so far, so good!

Mom and I did a little shopping and picked up some new items for summer and any/every baby item that we needed (THANK YOU mom & dad!).

Dad and Mark overhauled our guest bedroom. Much lighter and brighter. Anyone who's coming to visit, your new digs await!

Hil-arious! If you love Bravo like I do, it's a must read.

Anyone catch the RH New York premiere last night? I like Aviva and think Carol kind of seems like a dud. I did get the sense that LuAnn may be getting the 'Jill Zarin treatment' this season (which I love!)- it's time she get off her high horse. Can't wait for more!
