Me

Dear Loyal Readers,

I have missed you. I know I have been M.I.A. At the beginning of the year, I found out I was pregnant...and suddenly all my creative blogging-juices were gone. I tried to keep up, but nothing was there. These days, you will find me feeding my newborn and late night blog stalking.



I don't know if or when "allison's randomness" will ever get back to normal. So for now, I will continue to be M.I.A. on this site.

If you want o see what's going on personally, go to http://viewfromthemeadows.blogspot.com or twitter.com/randomallison

Xoxo

Guess Who Is Pregnant?

Not me...b/c I had my baby!

Moving on...

Jessica Simpson is rumored to be pregnant just 2 months before her wedding.  Since Nick Lachey beat her to the wedding, do you think she wanted to beat him to kids?

Congrats Jess!

I don't care if you like Anderson Cooper or not.  This will make you laugh.

Best giggle ever!

Happy Friday.

Melba's Mini-Bachelorette Party

Two weeks ago, a few friends and I hosted a mini-bachelorette/lingerie shower for our friend Melba.  We were so excited to get all the ladies together...and I loved that we were able to use the house!!

YAY for the bride-to-be!

Sexy...Cake?!

Over the weekend, some friends from work and I hosted a bachelorette party at my house.  The Bride-to-be's nickname is "Sassy MP", so it was very fitting that we got her a sassy cake. 
How cute is this cake from HomeStyle Bakery?

No only is it cute, it's affordable, and so YUMMY!

N.K.O.T.B.S.B

Last December, I bought tickets to go see N.K.O.T.B.S.B.  Though the concert was over 7 months away, I didn't care.  I needed to be the first one to get tickets.  I rounded up friends, did the pre-sale, and got my tickets.  Little did I know, I would be 7 months pregnant for the show.  Did it stop me? Hell no!  The baby needs to be exposed to such fab music!

I knew this show would be such a fun night out with my gals...it has in the past.  Saw New Kids in 3rd with 3 girlfriends {and my dad}, then again 2 years ago with another girlfriend.  In high school, I saw the Backstreet Boys in concert 3 years in a row...with girlfriends, of course.

Let me just tell you...it was amazing!  I didn't sit down the whole time. I felt like I was on "16 and Pregnant" b/c it was like high school all over again.  My 16 year-old-self and my 29 year-old-pregnant-self collided!  Until I birth this baby, this was the highlight of my year!

Jordain Sparks opened. She looked and sounded great!

Lucky Biotch!

 

Seriously, I am in heaven!  

Kim getting really excited...but amping it up a bit for the camera! 

My ladies...including the sparkly baby bump! 

Thanks for such a wonderful night ladies!  

PS paige & whitney stole this popcorn, tried to pass it around like a "beach ball" and then it was confiscated. They disappeared for like 10 minutes...thought they might have been arrested. Nope, beer hunt!

Happy Belated 4th of July

Last night hubs and I decided to go watch fireworks.  It was never in our "plans" for the weekend...but figured since we now live close to a "big" production, we should go.  We didn't feel like fighting the downtown crowd...so we opted for Crockett Park.  We threw some chairs in the back of the truck and drove by the park to feel it out.  We didn't want to get stuck in major traffic, so we found a field where about 40 or so other cars had parked and made our way in.  We moved to the top of the hill, popped open the chairs in the tailgate, and turned up the jams.  Surprisingly, it was a nice night out and we had a great view of the show.

As soon as the finale hit, we were in the car and out of the field. Literally took us 10 seconds to hop out of the back and get our truck moving. We were the 2nd car outta there and had no traffic on the way.

I think we just started a new family tradition!

HAPPY 4th EVERYONE!
