Shameless Showing Off/Bragging

Since we're all on such a everybody get together and love one another right now mood right now, I have decided to guiltlessly take advantage and provide an venue for you to do the same.What do you have to show off and/or brag about today?For me:Brinkley was in the base newspaper. He came in second in the long jump at Pet POOLooza on the base a couple weekends ago. Here, you can see two action shots:[img]http://tinyurl.com/yf2l8gp[/img]

Re: Shameless Showing Off/Bragging

  • I've got nothin', but your dog is cute and obviously a fantastic jumper :)  Wish I could get either of our dogs to do that!

  • Aww go brinkley! I don't have much today other than, I'm going on a Christmas cruise! woohoo
  • Go Brinkley!The only thing I have to show off are pics from our trip to a private beach this past weekend where we watched planes land[img]http://i35.tinypic.com/1zgc609.jpg[/img]

  • Oh congrats TJ :) I love the action shot. It's like I was actually there. I'm featured as a guest blogger on a wedding website. I just got done working on this amazing piece on breast cancer awareness and weddings / the wedding industry. It turned out great and will be published at the end of October.

  • Hm.  Had a huge fight w/ FI last night, and we're still engaged.  So yea, there's that.
  • Arbolita- That picture is fricken amazing
  • My husband was voted Mr. Name of his HS. He's like the teacher version of the Homecoming King, he got to be in the Homecoming Parade and was announced at the Homecoming Game. Funny, after being a prep in HS, I now feel like the girl dating the coolest guy in school even though I'm no longer in HS.
  • Arb that is an awesome pic! It reminds me of Buttaflai's photos, which I love.

  • Arb... i LOVE that photo! It's bad@ss.I got everything I asked for from these companies I interviewed with, but declined because they were all out of state and H wants to go back to school. Feels good to know I was able to negotiate max salaries.Our wedding is in Real Weddings so now we have photos with the permanent "k" in the little left hand corner. And today I found out I still don't have cavities.
  • Fische- Is that Liam? He is getting so big and handsome!
  • Your dog is cute.I got a huge ego boost last week.  I went in to visit my H at work, and when a customer came to the counter I said goodbye and left.  Well, that customer is running for some office or another in our town.  He's a really dirty old guy.  He walked up to the counter after I walked out and told my H that I looked really skinny (HUUUUUUUUUUGE ego boost for me).  Only then he went all dirty on my H and asked him if I was losing weight because he was giving it to me really hard... Oh well, I'll take a compliment where I can get it.

    And betrothed, I'm disgusted with most of the comments that you have posted. I don't think I've ever read such judgmental comments in my life. I'm so lucky that the girls I speak to on theknot are nothing like you...I would've never come on here for ADVICE if I would've encountered a big a bitch as you. I genuinely feel awful for your children or your future children, and I think it would be irresponsible of YOU not to invest in their future therapy sessions starting now. Because trust me when I tell you honey, they're gonna need it. ~jcaruncho2010

  • Hahaha, Salty - EXACTLY why I posted that I love that photo. You need to post more, Arb.
  • Brinkley is famous! Are you going to be getting him his own security? You should. There are a lot of crazies out there. Me: My nephew is due in 2 weeks. I think he'll be early. Ben wishes on a star every night that baby Eli will be a Halloween baby. Also, FI and I are going on a mini vacation this weekend to Charlotte. We are staying two nights. Going to Dave and Busters one night and the Panthers game the next night. Yay!
  • Arb - I LOVE that photo.  Show more! I look hot today.  And I'm in a dress that didn't fit last fall.
  • It IS Liam! He gets more handsome by the day!

  • Hopefully tonight I'll be able to start working on a married bio. Here's another one from the same area[img]http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs222.snc1/6928_595912215133_15201742_34434937_3719430_n.jpg[/img]

  • Wow, that is a gorgeous photo Arbolita

  • We didn't know Brinkley could jump, either. You wouldn't have known it by the 45 minutes it took to coax him into the water.

  • I'm happy we got to take pics together as a family.  FI's son included.  This is the first time ever.  His son is nearly 6 years old.  This means so much to us.
  • Dangit, I wish I had my uber cool lighthouse shot I took in FL. I'll try to post it later. It's a semi-creepy dusk shot. I'll take this opportunity to brag on my better half-- he has decided that he wants to go back to school. He has a tech school degree, and figured that would be all he needed for life. Well, his current job is horrible, which I hate for him, but it has made him aspire to be more than just a machine operator (he doesn't like being told what to do all the time), and he doesn't want to do manual labor for the next fifty years. So he wants to do something to make him more marketable as a manager in his industry. He currently is in an Associate Management position in title only, but he is very good at being in charge of other people.Anyway, he will be getting a Associate's in Business (if he follows through, of course-- I'll know he's serious if he lasts that first quarter). I'm very proud of him nontheless. Sorry for the rambling. I was trying to make sense.  
  • Caco -Those pictures are precious. What a cute family
  • Hmm, well my H surprised me with a trip to Cancun in January for my birthday!  Fischey, Liam is so handsome!  :)   
  • Coffer, that is a beautiful family that you have. I'm so glad that things are going well with your new son and that he gets along well with your other little one.
  • Oh, my other thing, it is not a picture, but apparently I've been on a roll lately, and my site traffic has been much higher than usual, consistently, for a while now. I must have had some extra awesome stored up.Today, however, I am not feeling it and have nothing to say, so I expect to crash back down shortly.However, I will enjoy it while it lasts.

  • TJ, your dog is freaking adorable. Seeing those pics is increasing my puppy fever substantially. My brag: This weekend, FI and I are going to Minneapolis (my hometown and our wedding location) to visit my family and do wonderful pumpkin-related fall things. While there, I'm showing my mom the dress (and probably ordering it, finally), doing a tasting at our reception site, showing my FILs our ceremony site, and celebrating my and FI's birthdays. They're one day apart next week, and my mom is a big birthday person. She's making tofurkey and everything. Basically, I'm really excited.
  • I love seeing everyone's photos - cacoffer, those are REALLY handsome family photos! Very snappy :))) I can't believe how big Liam is getting!Congrats on the imminent arrival of Eli!! Andy has been praying for a new baby sister for a year - it's so cute. He now tells people she's going to be "gorgeous." My dog hates the pool. The photos of her I have in the water; she's on my back, clawing for her life. My parents' dogs loved to be on floats - they'd just float around in the pool. We'd put a towel down, so no claws would puncture the floats, and away they'd go. I have two small ones:  we got our official paperwork from Clark County yesterday, so now I can take a half day and hit up Social Security and the DMV for my new name stuff!Also, my insurance processed, and I'm getting a fairly big refund from the dentist - they're paying a pretty decent chunk of even my IV sedation - I'm kinda doing a happy dance about that.

    I love you Missy. Even though you are not smart enough to take online quizzes to find out really important information. ~cew
