Ashley Tagged Me

Ashley tagged me and she's right, normally I wouldn't do these things but because she called me out, I'm all about proving somebody wrong.

4 things I like about my husband
-His hilarious sense of humor. Trey has at least 3 different voices that crack me up immediately.
-His sexy dance moves that make me laugh so hard. He's not embarrassed to do them in public either.

-He will do anything for me (he shaved his head just because I love it).

UPCOMING VACATION...ALL FRIENDS INVITED

I'm forcing Trey to take a vacation in the fall (October or November) and I'm going to plan a cruise to the Caribbean for us to go on. We want all of our friends and family to join us so if you're reading this you are probably invited, but you need to let me know if you're interested so we can start planning. If you think the picture below looks like fun you can come. If not, you're lame. 

Stick a Fork In Me

I'm done. After 4 months of waking up at 9am, putting on the same blue polo and cargo shorts, meeting at 11am, lunch with the boys, then knocking til 9pm I've finally decided to throw in the towel. We are going to be out here in Detroit for 34 more days but I don't want to knock another door. And since my husband is the boss, I can do whatever I want. I might spend the time remembering what it feels like to be a girl and maybe even relearning to dress like one. 

Detroit...The Land Where Dreams Come True

Last Friday we made the big move from Chicago to Detroit. This is the final city in our tour of summer selling. For those of who you have never been to Detroit, this is what they want you to think it looks like...
But this is the reality...
Big stars like Eminem and Kid Rock have come out of Detroit, making us all believe that's the caliber of people you will find there.
But this is the reality...
Let me know if anyone wants to come visit me.

So Ridiculous It's Sweet

When you're in the hood, you come across cars all the time that are worth about 2G's and their rims and lift jobs are worth double. I was entertained the whole time we were in Chicago and took pictures of every one that was worthy of holding a spot in my phone library. They came to be known as "Calendar Cars", or cars worthy of a calendar if we were to make one of ridiculous cars in the hood. In the above picture I'm glad there is a mini van in the back to help you judge how lifted this car really is. You also can't tell from the picture but this car has Lamborghini doors. Awesome.

Outside the Bubble...

Even though I grew up outside of Utah, I've lived there the past 7 years of my life and grown pretty accustommed to the way things go down there. It is definitely like no place on earth, it is not the real world. Anyone who thinks otherwise is only kidding themselves. Time for a reality check.


Every summer when we leave to some random place for summer sales, I am reminded of this concept. And luckily I've taken pictures of all the many things that have brought me back to reality.

One thing that has boldly stood out to me is the sanitation issue in these eastern states. It is literally impossible to walk into a women's restroom and find a toilet seat cover in the stall. Since I work about 11 hours a day I get to use many different public restrooms and I can honestly say I have never seen a toilet seat cover. Needless to say, I've been forced to hover. One of the grosser things I've come across in a public restroom was when I had to sneak into the men's because the women's was broken. Trey stood guard for me luckily. I looked into the trash can and saw lots of toilet paper with an unknown brown substance covering it all. I quickly learned that substance was poop. I guess in Latin countries it clogs the toilets if you flush paper down them so you have to just throw it in the garbage. Unfortunately, nobody told these guys they are in America now. Toilets work here.

Another great site you won't see in Utah is lawn ornaments. People decorate their yards here like National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. It is entertaining and ridiculously tacky. And the ornaments don't just stop at one or two. People can't even mow their grass because there are so many fake animals in it. You can name any animal and I guarantee they make it in a lawn ornament. On top of that, nobody takes down their Christmas lights. Also entertaining.

I just realized I could write a book about this stuff. So maybe I should wrap it up and save the rest for another day. Stay tuned for 26"inch rims on a jacked up Chevy Caprice.

Things I Miss When I'm Stuck In New Jersey For The Summer...

Being away from home for 5 months out of the year is hard enough but it's even harder when those 5 months happen to fall during the nicest time of the year...summer. You feel me. While everyone else is laying out by the pool, vacationing to wherever, I find myself at the complete opposite end of the spectrum. So here are some things I am missing while I'm out here knocking door after door:

#1 My Family
#2 My Best Friends
#3 Vacations With Trey (Hawaii)
#4 Lake Powell With The Fam
#5 Rated Hero Shows
#6 Having a Tan
I could go on and on, but I don't have enough pictures to go along with every single thing I miss. Stay tuned for things I don't miss.
