High 5 for Friday

We made it to another Friday!  Whoop Whoop!  After traveling most of last week this one was a long one, but it's here and that's all that matters now. Let's get to it shall we?

1. 

I got my first ever spray tan that ended up being a rolled on paint roller style tan because the sprayer was broken.  A tad awkward, but it worked like a charm and now I have a nice bronze glow. =) It kind of stressed me out because I have never had one before and I was a little worried about it washing off the in shower so I waited until this morning like I was told to.  However, I had to wash my face last night (which was not tan-rolled) and realized that a little dribble of soapy water found it's way down my arm leaving me with a white line on my arm.  Luckily I was able to blend it in with some lemon juice so it only looked like a fading scar.  The good news is that you can't see it at all this morning!

 The reason I had my first ever spray tan is because this girl is getting hitched this weekend! I am so excited for her and her beau and I am so excited that I get to be a part of it! And I also just realized that apparently the only times we ever take pictures together is when we're dressed up crazy.

C'mon Michigan State and Florida!  You're my only hope now! 
I am very ashamed of myself.  Due to the craziness of my schedule last week I completely forgot to fill out my bracket.  I can't remember the last time I forgot to fill one out....middle school maybe? I realized it last Thursday and quickly made my selections on the Sports Illustrated magazine bracket before I turned on any games.

Do you see that scratch out on the top left bracket?  That would be where I replaced my Dayton pick with Ohio State....I'm kicking myself now. But I did pick Tennessee and Harvard in the first round!

nom nom nom nom nom...
We have a new dinner obsession.  Have you noticed that we do this from time to time? The latest greatest dinner for us is the English Muffin Sandwich. I had a couple for breakfast when I was in Arkansas and decided I liked them, so I bought some.  Then for dinner one night Eric asked for one with a fried egg, turkey, and mayo. It sounded weird, but I obliged (and made by 1st fried egg!) and he loved it.  I really wanted an English muffin but wanted to eat a sandwich because we had some delicious deli turkey. I swapped the fried egg for a slice of provolone cheese and found a new favorite.  It's the perfect tiny sandwich! We ate them for dinner 3 different nights this week....what can I say, when you know what you like, go with it.

I saw this article this morning about the word "Yoopers" making the dictionary this year. I did not realize it was not yet a "real word." My brother was a Yooper for 5 years and I had the privilege of getting to experience the UP for his college graduation.  Despite the snow...in MAY, I completely got why he loved that place so much...and almost every reason is touched on in the article.

If it weren't for the snow and the leafless trees it would look like the Gulf!

The copper beach was amazing!

The unofficial snow meter for the UP.
Happy Friday!
