1) First, let's address my Hayday addiction. I downloaded it this month. And I hate myself for it. It is the most unrealistic game imaginable for someone who grew up on a farm. For one thing, you just seed and harvest your crops. You don't prep the land before. You don't spray. You don't purchase insurance. You don't even work the land after you "harvest". Among all the other things that go into crop farming. And, also, it makes me laugh that bacon can get "harvested" without killing the pig. If only real life worked that way. And, chickens do not lay eggs every 20 minutes. And if that darn many people visited the farm on such a regular basis...well, I like company, but the best thing about living in the country is that all your neighbors are at least a quarter of a mile away from you.
And, yes, I know I need a life.
Moving on.
2) I LOVE wedding planning. I'm certain that this doesn't come as a shock to anyone. It makes me stupid excited for my own wedding someday, and I've decided the four things I must have are an open bar, meatballs, a live band, and a tuxedo bib outfit for my father. I don't really care about anything else at this time. Anyways, the other bridesmaids and I have been working on planning Marcella's bachelorette party and bridal shower. It's really, really fun coming up with themes and decorations and games and food...oh the food. I hope she likes it! 47 days til the big day - holy moly! Wasn't I sposed to start working out daily six months ago?
3) It always makes me laugh when people put up a status on Facebook about selling homemade buns. Not because I think they're stupid...just because it makes me think every time my mom makes buns, one batch last maybe 36 hours.
4) My dad said to me about 835 times this month, "I didn't raise you to be a girl." Here's some of my favorites:
"Why are you wearing flip flops to catch frogs? I didn't raise you to be a girl."
"Quit being so scared of the electric fence. I didn't raise you to be a girl."
"My God Kalli, it is just a chicken. I didn't raise you to be a girl."
Just in case you're wondering what living with my dad is really like, there you have it ^^.
5) I've never watched a soccer game in my life. And I find it extremely hard to get excited about The World Cup.
6) New goal: go to all of these places. I've seen #24 and #29, so I'm off to a decent start, I think. Plus it's handy because I think a lot of them could be hit in the same trip.
7) Here's a picture of Bailey; she was mad she didn't make the last blog post. FYI, Wayne is Gus' show steer for the fair:
What did YOU learn?
Linking up with Chatting at the Sky.
Love,
Kalli
