Who Do I Look Like?! {My Doppelganger}



Just a quick, fun post today.. :)

I had to do this "Who's Your Doppelganger?" linkup with miss Raven.
These things are usually completely bogus, but I wanted to give it a shot! I think in years past when I was playing with it once, I got told Oprah.
 Hmm...yeah, I can see it. 

Here's who I got when I plugged my picture into my Heritage:




Interesting.
I've never been told that I look like ANY of these women.
Rachel Bilson..super cute, but she has brown eyes. Hayden? Hmmm..I don't know..maybe because of the small features?

What do you think? Do I resemble any of them?!

I can't tell you how many times in real life I've gotten that I look like the lady from Bones.
Emily Deschanel.



I kid you not, I once had a man follow me around my local shopping mall, who finally approached me after me trying to avoid him at all costs, asking me if I WAS her. When I said no, he was seriously shocked. Whatt....!?

I even got it again this past weekend when we were out at the bar.
A guy walked past me and said, "Bones lady!"

...Billy's mom also thinks I look JUST like her.

I see it because of our noses..I guess.

So, tell me, do you see it?!

My bestie, Lindsay, tells me Katie Holmes, but she is clearly just being my best friend and would tell me I looked like Gisele if I wanted her to.

Go link up with Raven and join the fun!

If I Won The Lottery, I Would Buy...



I didn't win the mega millions lottery Friday night.
Shocking and depressing all at the same time, I know.

However, Billy and I did discuss what we would do with the money (you know, after the crazy amount of taxes) if we did win. Or if we win in the future. Because that is completely normal, right?

Hey, there's a chance..
always a chance.

Here's what made our
"How We Would Spend Our Lottery Money"
list:

(please keep in mind most of our answers were just for comical and unrealistic (well, some) purposes. I'd like to think I would save some of it. Some is the keyword.)

+The first thing out of my mouth was, "Range Rover!"
My favorite vehicle out of all vehicles.
I would feel too legit to quit in one of them.

the car Billy would want?
 Ferrari f430..


+Travel abroad for months on end
Aruba. Jamaica. Oooh, I wanna take ya to.. sorry, had to.
Back to the list..Ireland. Italy. Australia. Thailand. Greece. Africa.
Who knows, maybe even Fiji. Most definitely Fiji.

+Buy a house on Lake Norman in Charlotte (Billy's pick)


{2011 trip to Charlotte}


and with the house...we would need a boat, obviously.
One of those gigantic million dollar yachts.
Yes, one of those.

this would suffice...


+Pay off our house

+Invest some of it

+Buy a frozen yogurt shop
and put a dispenser in our house so I had access 24/7.
Can you guess who suggested this?
Just to reap the benefits of free fro-yo all the time.
I'M IN.

+Buy the house I grew up in and fix it up!

I talked about the meaning behind this here.
Many of you haven't seen that post, but it was one of my favorites.

The house is beautiful, but needs some updating!




+Open up some type of cancer center for children

+Buy other condos/houses in Florida, NYC, & somewhere in California
...just so that we have most areas in the U.S covered.

We also said we would want to live in NYC for a year or 2 before we had kids.
We love it there, but wouldn't want to live there for a long time.

+Go on a mass shopping spree!
Bags, shoes, jeans, bags, shoes, jeans...

who am I kidding?
This might be the first thing I do.


+Take all our friends to Vegas for a week


+Hire a personal chef for a year 
(or for how many years we could afford to do so)

Curtis Stone wouldn't be too bad...

...in that case, I'd also hire Jillian Michaels
to train me once a month.

+Take my parents on a trip somewhere as a family
and give my Dad some cash
just for ALL the crazy teenage shenanigans I pulled when in high school
...which stressed him out beyond belief.


+Have a hibachi grill in each of our houses
those things are amaze. 





+Season tickets to OSU football
at the 50 yard line - 5 rows up preferably
(for me)
Floor seats to the Cavs games
(for Billy)


Well, that doesn't seem like too much, now does it?
It was pretty fun to come up with this list and let your imagination run wild!

What would make your Lottery list?!


PS:  The book "Bloom" written by my favorite blogger, Kelle Hampton, was released today at Target and Barnes and Noble. Go get yourself a copy!
She is pretty much my role model.

Florida...Here We Come!



EEEKK I'm sooo excited!! I had a wonderful, relaxing weekend but ONE thing made it even BETTER!!!


I mentioned on my last post on Friday that I wanted to do something super special for Billy's upcoming birthday (March 3rd) and this weekend we made it official!!!


We booked flights to go to Florida for 6 days!!! We leave the day before his birthday so we will be celebrating it while we're there! YIPPEEE!!! :D :D


I wasn't kidding when I've been saying I am SO OVER the Winter weather. snow. cold. and bundling up in a 745248 layers so this trip cannot come soon enough! I can't think of a better way to celebrate his birthday...and also equally as amazing for me ;) but I am planning on taking him out to eat for a nice dinner on the beach somewhere to make it special!!

 

We will be spending most of our time soaking up the SUN like this...


...and sipping on a bunch of these...




....and I will be reuniting my toes with the SAND!!! and flip flops/sandals too ;)

 
...and lastly just enjoying the scenery and time off work!!!



COUNTDOWN: T-MINUS 52 DAYS!!


Can you tell I'm excited?! 

AND...not to mention just 2 days after we get back I will be singing my heart out at the LADY GAGA concert here in Columbus!!! Billy got me tickets for her concert back in MAY (yes, as in we had to get them 10 months in ADVANCE!!) What an amazing week that'll be! 





LAST THING I promise... I can't forget to share that my other half/cousin/best friend Natasha will be here THIS Saturday-Weds and I cannot wait to pick her up from the airport..I may faint out of excitement!!!! :D


Hope everyone had a good weekend too!
