You Asked, We Answered part 1

We were so overwhelmed (and excited) with all of the wonderful questions you all asked when we opened up the floor last week, in celebration of 400 posts. We have loved answering these questions over dinner and the conversation that some of them has sparked has been so much fun. Thanks for that. I am going to have to break these up into weekly segments. We will do the drawing for a winner sometime this week (it's been kinda crazy around here the last few days). So here are the first set of 4.

ALSO...did you see my cute little button on the side of my blog? Have you heard about this fabulous new movement in "Fishful Thinking"? Go 'fishing' by clicking the button, you will be glad I shared this with you...trust me. It. Is. Awesome.

John Deere Mom Mom asked:

Mamarazzi-If you had $500 to spend on anything, which ONE store would you choose?
“I am boring and practical and always thinking of my family so it would probably be Target…shampoo, toilet paper, laundry soap etc.”
Jordan-If you could take have one celebrity at school with you for a day, who would you choose?
“OH- that’s difficult, if I have to chose one it would be Miley Cyrus, I have been dying to meet her for a long time".
Big Daddy-What car would you purchase if money were no object?
“Tough one, I'd have to chose between a 1971 Hemi Cuda convertible or a Dodge Viper”

Megan R. asked:

Mamarazzi: What are your (IRL) friends, and families reactions to your blog? “They tell me they like it. A lot of my IRL friends are not bloggers but they follow the blog and comment in person. My family comments when they feel like it. I have cousins and a sister in law who read DAILY and I see them on my sitemeter (holla!) but they never comment.”
Jordan: Is there anything about your Mom blogging about you that you DON'T like?
“No, she usually always asks my permission and sometimes I ask her to put things on there.”
Big Daddy: Have you ever considered getting in on the bloggy action and starting your own?
“I maintain a private blog, I update it once or twice a week for family and far away friends.”

Juls asked:

Here's my question to each of you:
Mamarazzi, Big Daddy & Jordan:What is your favorite family tradition? What makes it so special?
Jordan says: “Playing games after dinner every night. We get to laugh a lot and spend time together as a family. AND I kick their butts!”
Big Daddy says “Def. the games 100%, we have a great time together. it has been fun to see J start with the playful competitiveness and do a little trash talking; very funny.”
Mamarazzi says: “I am going to have to agree. The time we spend playing games after dinner is REALLY precious to me. If you are not doing this with your family, go out and get a game and start now. Even if it is one night a week, do it! you will really value this time together…I promise! Let me know how it goes, AND I can suggest games for all ages”

Tiff asked:

Mamarazzi - How did Big Daddy Propose?
“Actually I asked him. I had broken up with him for a few months and dated around a little bit. I had been considering a proposal from someone else and I got that FEELING that I was suppose to be with Big Daddy. So one night we were watching TV and he asked what was new and I said, ‘ well I guess we are suppose to get married’ and he said’ well it is about time you figured that out’ a week or so later (after talking with my daddy)he composed a beautiful poem and we made it official".
J- What is your favorite thing to make and will you share the recipe with us?
“I share all of the things I like to cook in Cooking With Jordan, but one of my favorite recipes to make is Feel Better Chicken Noodle Soup. It is easy and very yummy.”
Big Daddy - Since you have the most awesome girls on the planet, how do you enjoy spending time with them?
“This might sound corny but talking. We love to sit around and talk. Mamarazzi and I can solve all the worlds’ problems, plan our future and decide what we would spend our lottery winnings on (if we played) in one good road trip. J and I go for walks everyday and I love the conversations we have on those walks. It is a wonderful time for us to connect and we have gotten even closer through those walks.”

Thanks for the questions girlies!!

OH aaaaaaaand I found out Blogger was doing some upgrades and overnight a lot of us 'lost' followers. But in reality they are not really lost. Check your "Blogger dashboard" and on the left side you'll see the blogs that you follow. Check to see if it says you are following anonymously or publicly. I did this and about 20% of the blogs I follow were clicked into anonymous...all i had to do was change it to public...easy peasy...go check (after you leave me a lovely comment and go fishing, of course). Thanks for the tip Ciara!
