. . . for Lauren and Lauren: Bachelor Dream and a Life Lesson

March 13, 2013

Bachelor Dream and a Life Lesson

scarf: gift    cardigan: walmart   pants: target maternity   shirt: shade clothing

I just realized that I posted an outfit picture with this scarf two days ago.  Oops.  What can I say? I really like it.  

I also should tell you that I had a dream the other night that I was on the bachelor.  We were on a date by some mountains and the producers were trying to make me say that I was afraid of bugs and didn't want to climb up the mountain, even though that was not true.  

Meaning of my dream:  the bachelor is staged.  

Lesson to learn:  I wouldn't even care and would watch it regardless.  I am a loyal fan.  

Another thing that I am a fan of is Jessah from Dreaming of Dimples.  Jessah is one of the bloggers I've connected with through the struggle of infertility.  Bloggers like her, that I've received support and encouragement from, have truly been the greatest blessing I've found since starting my blog.  She is honest, strong and beautiful and I'm so happy to share her with you today:  

Happy Wednesday! 
I'm Jessah from Dreaming of Dimples.
My blog is an extension of me. A space to share my life, my thoughts, and my talents. I blog to inspire and connect with this wonderful world of talented, amazing female bloggers. {that means you}

What you can expect to find on my blog is a true representation of my life. Not just the happiness and joy but the sadness and heartache as well. It is filled with the things I love, my struggles, things that motivate me and inspire me, my photography and any little adventure on my life’s path.

Here are 10 random things that y'all might like to know about me. 
  1. I love pomegranates and eating them is practically the only thing I enjoy about winter.
  2. Puppies make me smile. {And if they don't make you smile, you might be broken. Just sayin'.}
  3. I'm an instagramaholic. My addiction happens here if you'd like to witness firsthand. 
  4. The sun is my best friend. I love it more than anything. {I use protection. Don't worry. SPF30 to be exact.}
  5. I enjoy riding horses.
  6. I've got mad party planning skills. Check out three themed-parties that I hosted last year - Pinterest PartyFavorite Things and Sip & See
  7. I finished my first half marathon in October and think running has finally become a habit. 
  8. I have an unhealthy obsession with alpacas.
  9. My marriage is in a constant state of growing and stretching so it can become the best version of itself. 
  10. I've been (unsuccessfully) trying to have a baby for over four years and we openly share our infertility story here.


Winner will be contacted after the 17th.  Thanks for entering!

I have no experience with infertility, but I've seen the blogging community it has and think you ladies are awesome.

Congrats on your half! I've just started running and am doing a 5K at the beginning of May and I'm terrified I'm gonna do horrible, haha!

I watched The Bachelor for the first time in a LONG time this season and I have to say, I was hooked. It's so fake, but so addicting. :)
Isn’t That Charming.

TheTinyHeart said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

Haha! I continue to watch it too even though it probably is staged and most of the couples don't last!

Haha, I had a Bachelor dream the other night, too! The gist of it was that he chose the wrong girl and regretted it. So... who do you think I thought he should choose? ;-)

How funny! I found that I had THE craziest dreams during my second trimester lol.

First time here and I got to see two girls at once. :)
Sorry to hear about the infertility. I work with women who want to have a baby and try to improve their chances with nutrition. If you haven't tried seeing a nutritionist, give it a go. It's amazing what a body can do once the issues are found and addressed through the diet.

Have a wonderful day!

Love learning about new blogs@ And I totally agree w. Dreaming of Dimples "Puppies make me smile. {And if they don't make you smile, you might be broken. Just sayin'.}"

Faith said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

Hahaha the meaning of your dream! That completely made me laugh out loud that Sean asked me what's so funny?

It's a great scarf! Wear it everyday if you want. That's what I do with my leopard scarf ;)

Sandra said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

What a strange dream! Who cares if you posted the scarf a few days ago....it's awesome! Great giveaway too! Oooohh! Excited! And looking forward to getting to know Jessah :)

Aunie said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

hi pretty! i love jessah too :) i also LOOOVE your mustard cardigan! love!

Janna Renee said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

You are both AWESOME! xoxo

Tessa said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

Everyone's immediate thought is that all "reality" tv is pretty fake. Apparently The Bachelor is pretty real, though. Sean's sister is a blogger and has talked about the show and says it's all very real, no script, no producer's telling you what to do, no reshooting. It's interesting to see an insider's perspective!
