little letters {2}

Dear Andriod, instagram is the best thing that has ever happened to you! But I still want to switch to the iPhone when it's time for my upgrade. :)

Dear Pinterest, you actually make meal planning FUN! Thank you for so many amaaaazing ideas!

Dear fellow gym members, I apologize that my body has mistaken me for a teenager. Zits on the face, the shoulders, the back... I stopped taking my skin meds and clearly my body hates me for it. I apologize that I don't wear make up to the gym, or go to the back of the classes when I'm wearing a tank top. I am embarrassed that you have to see me at my worst :(

Dear dermatologist, thank you for being a life saver. I wish my body wasn't messed up, but you fix me every time. In case any of you southern Utahn's are wondering, Tim is the one to see for your skin care needs!

Dear woman who backed into our truck, remember when I said thank you for being honest and leaving a note? WHERE THE HECK DID YOU GO? I haven't heard from you since we got our estimate, so I called your insurance company today. The repair is going to cost a pretty penny that we shouldn't have to pay for. So..... I feel bad for calling when you said you would handle it all, but you haven't been handling anything.

Dear Maui, the countdown is on! Less than 4 weeks :) (that's as good as my countdown gets) I appreciate all the suggestions and tips we've been receiving about our trip! So please friends, keep 'em coming!

Dear Eric, no one... and I mean no one can piss me off faster than you. And visa versa (no perfect marriage for the Brinkerhoff's!) but no one makes me happier! Despite our imperfections... you are the guy for me! I will love you forever. And ever. And ever.

this picture may or may not be from New Year's Eve.....

tinajo said...

Maui sounds wonderful - too bad about your car though. We had a similar thing happening to us - but that person took off without leaving a note at all. Yep - thanks a LOT idiot! :-P I wasn't too happy about that repair money...

tiff@thecoffeehouse said...

ok, so go with me here. my skin has been horrible lately too and i think it's from exercising. soooo, i'm going to stop exercising. i think it's the best thing to do right now. maybe chocolate and wine will help me too. it's worth a shot.

m&msmommy said...

Dear Courtney, I'm SOOO super jealous about Maui! SOOO jealous! ;)

I couldn't agree more with the "Dear Eric" one...same over here for the Gomez family! :)

Erica M. said...

I am pretty excited for instagram for android now. I have been waiting for it! But I am right with you, I still want an Iphone.

Mrs. Robinson said...

adorable picture of you two! :) No marriage is perfect, haha. We are from it...but, you know, if we didn't love them so much they wouldn't have the power to get SO under our skin either. :)

A+J said...

Love this picture...so sweet. Aw the joys of marriage.

Unknown said...

Such a cute picture! :D I'm sure your trip to Maui will be amazing! And boyfriends/fiancés/husbands are the masters of pissing off... Mine drives me crazy but still I love him to pieces (and I suppose he does as well, even when I drive him nuts) :D

Ashlee @ ashleenikol.com said...

Can't wait for your trip to Maui - mainly the pictures lol! That will be the closest I ever get to seeing it. That sucks about your vehicle, but that's usually how it goes {they tell you, Ohhh I'll take care of it, then NO word. totally happened to me}. I love your hair in this pic!! Please come to KY and do my hair! :)

Have a great day girl!

Pamela said...

Ohhh those boys! They sure do know how to get under skin - quickly! I swear they do it on purpose sometimes (well prob more than sometimes, ha!). Gotta love em ;)

Shannon @ Bungalow960 said...

I am on board with your iPhone switch! I have until December. We have two MacbookPros, two iPads, an Apple TV, and one iPhone in our house. I am the last one. I am counting down the days!

Mel said...

love these little letters :)
and I could copy and past that gym letter this very second ;)

I am so jealous of your Maui trip, just thought you should know.

Suget said...

awww Maui!! Lucky you!! And darn those people who backed into your truck!!

The Adventurer said...

I just need you to know that the picture caption is something I would so totally say. And I may or may not say "may or may not" all the time. You're. The. Best.

Whitney Leigh said...

I feel the same way about my android.
it's been real,
and it's been fun.
but it hasn't been real fun.

and the the crap truck lady! you were the last hope for humanity in this world.

= said...

I feel the same way about my phone
and instagram
O and my husband! have a good day!

The iPhone is THE best!!!

And at least you and your hubby are doing well! That's always good to know when someone is happy :)

Tatiana said...

You guys are always too cute with each other :-) And maui? Gosh I'm jealous!

Deveny said...

Pinterest food = working mom's miracle. I actually made a goal to try at least one new recipe a week from my board (awesome easy results). I can't even express my love of my crockpot. I'd marry that thing if I was single...

Bree said...

Haha oh how I love you guys! We're totally like that! No one can piss us off faster or make us happier! :)

Karina Marie Powell said...

AHHH we are going to maui in like 6 weeks! so we will be there right after you!!! so excited for you! I LOVE this picture. how cute are you two!!

Shonnie said...

Aren't men the best? Love your comment...I feel the same about my husband. They sure do know how to push buttons!!!! But it makes it just that much better when they are awesome :)

Rolled Up Pretty said...

It doesn't look like you have any zits! But I am sorry, my face got pretty bad at the first of my pregnancy so I HATED going to the gym because of it. Boo zits! And LOVE that you said no one can piss you off faster than Eric, HA HA HA! LOVE THAT!

Heather said...

I'm seriously loving Instagram on my droid too, but I love my driod a millions times more than the iphone!

I LOVE how you said that your hubby can piss you off faster than no other, because my fiance is the same way!!! BUT I love him so much...so it balances out :).

Eesh said...

That photo is just so cute! And Maui?! #officiallyjealous

I hope you guys get your truck sorted out real soon!

Sam said...

Gosh I love pinterest! I can spend hours on there. Maui?? Jealous!

Holly said...

I love Instagram too. It is amazing and I think I am obsessed. :D

Jessica said...

That picture is SO cute. And you're going to Maui!? So cool. My parents just went last year for their wedding anniversary. They said it was one of the most beautiful places ever. They even went zip-lining! Holy crap, I never would, but its an option. :)

xx Jessica

That Girl said...

I'm sure the gym people don't even notice your breakouts. They're probably too busy noticing your cute gym outfits!

Keri said...

I am sure no one notices anything other than how super cute you are! I loooove that picture of you and Eric. Makes one feel all warm and fuzzy inside. :)

Ashley said...

I love Pinterest for meal planning. It seriously has saved me!

Janna Renee said...

I'm glad that you called her insurance company..It's her own fault for going MIA! I think dermatologists are the shizz...They solve ALL the girlie issues!

Emma Frances said...

I love that picture! :] And I'm glad you're on Instagram now! And that last letter to Eric is so true. Except for for me with Race. Marriage is funny in that way! :]

Random Forevers said...

you are just darling! and maui??? i'm so jealous! i would kill for a vacation right now! love your blog.

Crazy Shenanigans-JMO said...
