Man Crush Monday: Luke Bryan

This post was brought to you by Tim McGraw's Superstar Summer Night Concert from May that was replaying on tv this last Friday. 

I love country music so much, and I love that all of my country favorites were there!

Tim McGraw. Lady A. Luke Bryan. Dierks Bently. Jason Aldean. Keith Urban. and Pitbull...I guess. Haha.

It was an awesome special and I legit stayed at the gym until it closed Friday night so I can watch a majority of the concert.

So how did this concert inspire this man crush Monday post? A big fat smile would come across my face each time this dude was on camera...

Luke Bryan. He is the hottest dude in country music right now, rightfully winning the ACM entertainer of the year award. He is crazy good looking, but totally goofy!

This was my favorite of the night. Besides all of these awesome men signing together...I love how Luke kind of just wanders the stage when he's not singing. Lol.

He comes to town in 2 weeks...I can't wait :]

Someone get me this for the show!

The only thing hotter than a dude in baseball pants...
Luke Bryan in baseball pants <3

Okay, I'm done. 

Happy Monday everyone :]

Weekend Update: ACS Relay For Life & The Fair

I don’t really have a fun/witty intro to this weekend update so let’s just get started…

Friday: Stayed home, cleaned, and chilled. Caught up on my DVR-ed shows…

SYTYCD- My favorite is Mackenzie. Saw her rock it in the background during auditions but I was nervous she wasn’t gonna make it because they didn’t feature her at all through the Vegas audition show interviews! Glad everyone loved her! [And now I love this girl even more…just went to find a picture of her to post on here and her SYTYCD bio says she’s from Temecula, CA which is like 20 minutes North of where I’m from!] I’m not a fan of Cyrus’ ex-girlfriend Jasmine. Cyrus was a fan favorite from last year and she is totally trying to ruin his cred by saying things changed once he got on the show and that he left her. She's a good dancer, but not liking her personality. It seems like she’s riding on his coat tails. Love love LOVE the tappers, animators, and ballroom dancers!  

Ellen- She’s been on a re-run kick which I will assume is because she’s vacationing/filming new episodes. I was 3 episodes behind so It served as background noise while I cleaned.

Pretty Little Liars- AHHH! I don’t even know what to think of this show! Is Ali alive or dead? Who is A? Who is red coat? Who was the lady in black at Wilden's funeral? Why are Ashley’s shoes muddy?! Was Spencer’s letter from UPenn legit? Yay for Ryan from Step Up Revolution getting on the show!

 

Saturday: Worked with my mom during the day. Ran home and showered then took off to Nate’s Butt Farm for the Relay For Life. Hung out, ate food, danced, napped, tried to read, luminaria, walked my 12-1 am shift, slept for 3 hrs, ate breakfast, closing ceremonies. The growth of our even is incredible. I walked the 1^st year they had it up here back in 2011 and we had like 5 teams and “only” raised a few thousand dollars. 2013 we had 20 teams and like 200 registered participants. Valley Center is a small town but we managed to raise $72,000+ for this event…so incredible! Something else that was incredible were 2 men that walked together for all 24 hours with minimal food and restroom breaks. They each walked like 53 miles! Hopefully I’ll be able to attempt something similar next year!

Luminaria

It was cold and dark during my shift! 

Sunday: Relay ended at about 9 am, got home around 10 and took a quick nap before heading to the beach and then a night at our local county fair. So much fried food. We had the bacon wrapped pickle (yum!), krispy kreme chicken sandwich (yum!), fried oreos (yum!), fried cookie dough (too sweet), waffle dog (meh), fried avocado (bland. needed a dipping sauce.), and cinnamon rolls (always yum!). My body was heart attack central so I tried to minimize my impeding death by washing down the fatty goodness with water instead of soda. I think it worked…only gained 1 lb and no heart burn! I won myself a couple prizes…a cute little giraffe and a gorilla that looked stoned. Hahaha. Did the guess the speed of your throw thing kind of just to see how fast I threw…52 mph, which isn’t bad since I haven’t played ball or thrown since mid December! [Sorry for the lack of fair pics!]

I came home, played on my phone a little and then went to bed!        

Potpourri

A post about everything and nothing, all at the same time...

1) The crack house is about 80% done! We added flooring and tile, and the windows are being worked on as we speak. A lot of our belongings have been moved over. We spent our first night there Saturday. All that is left is painting the bathroom cabinets, replacing outlets, adding curtains, screw on cabinet and drawer handles, and organizing our stuff. I'm hoping to get my TV working by tonight because I'm an episode behind on Ellen! There's still things on my to-do list like replacing bedroom and closet doors, changing the bathroom counter and shower tile, adding tile to the kitchen counter, and totally revamping the back yard...but those will all happen with time. All the work we've been doing was to make the place livable  so now that it is, we're good to go!   

2) Remember that Padres game I didn't go to last week? Welp, turns out that was one of the more exciting games the Pads will have all season...besides the fight with the Dodgers. 17 innings, 5 hours later, a Padres win! Not sure if that makes me feel better or worse about it though. Whomp. Oh well.

3) Team USA soccer was happening this weekend. US v. Germany men's game resulted in a 3-4 win in the United States favor, and the US v. Canada women left us with a 3-0 win for the US! 

Girl crush Alex Morgan got 2 in the net!

Sydney Leroux "shush-ing" the crowd after her goal.

These two Sydney Leroux images are kind of a big deal because she’s been getting a lot of crap for playing with the US. She is Canadian born to an American father and Canadian mother. She holds dual citizenship between the US and Canadia but has chosen to play with the US national team over Canada’s these last few years/forever. She scored the last goal of the game this weekend and walked around the field a little before grabbing the badge of her jersey, kissed it, and then “shushed” the crowd. According to her twitter, she was called racial slurs, taunted, and family was being talked about. Not cool Canada soccer fans. P.S. none of these pictures of mine, and were stolen from here and here.

4) I am friends with some pretty beastly folks. 12 fb/instagram buds did the San Diego Rock & Roll (half and full) marathon this weekend and kicked it in the face! 1 even qualified for the Boston marathon! Props to all of you because I can't even begin to imagine racing! The last one I did...which was a 5K, kicked my butt! BUT It's on the "things to do before you die" list so I might entertain the idea for next year! We'll see...stay tuned :] P.S. That list has been updated, 2 things have been crossed off...can you guess which ones?

5) Last but most definitely not least, Tim McGraw is this weekend with Love & Theft and Brantley Gilbert! County concert season is officially starting and I bought my tickets a while ago! I saw Tim like 3 or 4 years ago with Kayyy and then last summer up in Anaheim!He puts on such a great show, and I'm super excited to see the other 2! Hopefully Faith Hill makes a guest appearance!

30 DAY CHALLENGE: DAY 05

Day 05 – Your favorite television program.

My favorite television program...that is still airing is:

Growing up, played soccer and softball... and dabbled in karate and volleyball. As much as I wanted to and begged my parents, I never was involved in dance. The things these dancers can do and the emotion they have for their craft is amazing. I've been fortunate enough to attend a few of the live tapings up in Hollywood as well as the tours the top 10 of each season immediately after the season ends.

My favorite television show of ALL TIME is hands down The Hills <3 my love for Laguna Beach carried over to The Hills, and I'm so glad it did! As much as they pegged it as a reality show, I know it's far from that...but I still love it. I can definitely credit this show with my infatuation with Los Angeles.



...how beautiful is this cast?!! Minus Spencer. and Heidi post plastic sugery. and I'm totally "Team LC" notttt "Team Kristen" Lauren is one of my faovirte people ever, I met her at a book signing like 3 years ago. That picture is gross, so I'm not going to post it.

Lately, I don't watch much tv and when I do it's usually sports...

I am a little obsessed with teen dramas like Gossip Girl, 90212, and Pretty Little Liars

            

Some of my old school favorite:

Sex & The City
