20 Things About Me.

I thought this might be a fun way for you to get to know me and my family.

1. First (and somewhat telling) things first. My monogram is kGg. I welcome any and all monogrammed items. Love them. My car is even monogrammed with a decal from 2PreppyGirls.

2. I have 2 children who are 13 months apart, BB (boy, currently 26 months) and CC (girl, currently 13 months). Millionaires family.

3. I live in Florida as of September 2011, and DH and I say to each other regularly "we should have moved here years ago". We love it.

4. Ah, the DH. He is a wonderful guy; full of humor. I am sure he will make guest appearances in the comments section with wit and sarcasm. His gifts.

5. While I will call myself a prepster, I think my style is actually more classic. Think Ann Taylor, meets J.Crew, meets Lilly Pulitzer. I am a preppy mutt.

6. This is not my first blog rodeo. I blogged about my IVF process to conceive BB also. That one is private now, but was a great source of support at the time.

7. I love cars, expensive ones. I can spot a luxury car from a mile away. It is getting harder now with lower-end vehicles mimicking luxury all the time. I mistakenly identified a *gasp* Hyundai as a Benz the other day.

8. I worship the sun and aspire to be a leather-ball by the time I am 50.

9. I adore my current friends, and I am always looking to make new ones. My circle can never be too wide.

10. My Starbucks name is Faith. If you hear it called out associated with a Venti Americano with room, look around. I am there somewhere.

11. Home invasion is my greatest fear. Its somewhat irrational how much I think about it.

12. Even writing #11 makes me think that someday a newscaster will reference this blog post when reporting on how I was killed in a home invasion. I told you, irrational.

13. My favorite TV shows are COPS and Americas Most Wanted. John Walsh is my hero. I am also a "Real Housewives" junkie. DH wont admit it, but he is too.

14. I cant stand 'reality talent shows'. American Idol makes me want to hide underwater in my bathtub. DH pink, puffy hearts the mediocrity that is American Idol. Blech!

15. I have 2 dogs. A Golden Retriever and a Maltese, aka- Little Beast and Beast. Little Beast has been mine since before DH and the monkeys came along. I am his one true love.

16. When it comes to wine I am not a snob. Most nights I am sipping a crispy, light Pinot Grigio. I drink what I like, not what I have heard is 'swanky'.

17. Sushi makes me swoon. I love beautiful food and a colorful plate of raw fish usually has me whipping out my iPhone to snap a picture before attacking the plate.

18. I cant play golf but I love the driving range.

19. I went to an all-girls boarding school and made some of my very best life-long friends there.

20. When all else fails I use humor to get me out of most sticky situations.

  7. Your blog made me laugh and smile. I also have an irrational fear of a home invasion. I even plan out in my head how I will fight back to defend my children. :)
