Yes, I got my makeup professionally done. My cousin happens to own a makeup company. It pays to know people! |
For one, I do not run my husband. I don't think there is an ounce in my body that could manipulate that man even if I wanted to. Don't get me wrong, he loves me and respects me and my opinions, and we make most of our decisions together. However he is the ultimate authority in our house and I like it that way.
Filming me talking to Lavar on Skype. |
Second of all, sorry House Hunters, but I have to clear the air. My husband NEVER travels with the boys by himself. That is me every time. The reason I feel the need to clear this one up is not because I want to make my husband look like he does nothing, he works very hard for our family. But because it is hard to travel internationally by myself with two kids. So I think I deserve credit for that! Can I get an amen?? And I have a slight feeling the show might make me look like I stay in the states to go shopping while my husband takes the kids overseas. I cannot tell you how far that is from the truth.
I was asked to add a little drama to the show by emphasizing, we'll say, whether or not I could live in France. If you know me and my family, you know the truth there. I have lived here for 3 1/2 years now over a 5 year period and I think I'm okay.
The film crew was awesome, I had so much fun with them in LA and in France. |
Okay, I think that is about it. The hardest part about all this, I can't watch the show when it airs! I have to wait until it is sent to me on DVD. So I will be relying on Twitter, Facebook, and e-mails to see how much of a dork I look like!
Oh, did you want to know when it airs? If you follow us on Facebook (which you should), you already know. If not.... fine I'll tell. It's...
Tonight 7:30 & 10:30 PST on HGTV
I would love to know if you get a chance to tune in! And if you do and I do look like a dork, just know it's not all true. Actually, I am a total dork in real life, so that might be true, just not some other stuff.
Yikes, it's here!!

awww i didnt realize you took the HHI offer!!!!! cool :) :) i turned it down because i didnt want to be portrayed badly (a friend of mine did it and was), but im sure your episode is just fine! sadly mine would have probably portrayed me correctly...hehe. hopefully they will eventually put it online so i can watch ;)
AWWW I wish I could watch it! That's so cool - I'm with megan, hoping they put it online eventually!
I'm so glad you told us. I'll be out of town tonight, so I'm going to DVR it.
I set my DVR last night! I can't wait to see it!
I totally set this to DVR the other day. WOOHOO! I can't wait to see you boss your hubs around. ;) lol JUST KIDDING.
Wow, awesome! I had no idea! So sorry I can't watch it...would love to see you! I'm sure everything will be fine! xxx
I am so excited! Its on my calendar on my phone. Im happy for you and I know it will be great!
i'm bubbling with excitement! I'm sure you will be beautiful and inspiring! :)
I don't have cable, but my parents do. I'm so going over there tonight after the boys are in bed! Last year my husband's brother was on Animal Hoarders (for hoarding snakes, yeah), and we were very, very nervous how it would be portrayed. My husband has 4 brothers, and he is the only brother who agreed to be on the show. We were pretty happy with how it turned out, and my BIL has now gotten rid of ALL his snakes. So it turned out great for us! I hope the same for you!
OMG get the popcorn, my hubby and I love that show! Can't wait to watch!
Watching it now, u look great and have nothing to worry about. U all are adorable and I dont think u were in any negative light. Cant wait to see which one u choose.
just watched the show and found your blog because of it. you look like such a sweet family and i love the house you picked! definitely didn't get a bad impression of yall.
I thought you were awesome on the show. You and your family are so inspiring!! Loved it!! I was like, I know her, I read her blog!! Loved it!!
Aww, I missed it. Do you know when it will be on again? I watch HH all the time.
My husband and I just watched it! We thought it was so cool to see someone we 'know' on the show we love to watch! You and your family looked great by the way...nothing to worry about! :)
I LOVED the episode and I think you did great!! It was so fun to watch!
how fuuuuun! i don't have cable anymore... is it on their website yet?
I loved watching you, hubby, and those sweet boys. You picked the house I wanted, too. I knew we had something in common. hehehe
I have barely been online in close to 2 weeks. I had NO idea about this until just now! I am so bummed that I missed it & hope I can find it either as a repeat episode or online to watch soon!!
I didn't see it, but I'm wondering about how things turned out for you. I think I'll check www.hulu.com to see if the rebroadcast is on their site.
I hope you'll be happy with the outcome. The vibe I get from you is that you and your husband and children seem like pretty easy going, cool people, so I hope that you're depicted as such.
BTW, you seem terribly familiar. Maybe you resemble someone else that I know/have known. I don't know, I can't remember. I grew up in Metro-Detroit (Rochester, to be exact), and have lived in Los Angeles, and now live in Houston. Hm mm... I don't know. Do you? Pardon me (on any account), if not.
At any rate, know that I'm a new SITS member who found a minute to stop by and check out your blog. My take on it? Really nice! Love your "How-to's"! Thanks a million.
I have to tell you I started following your blog a few months ago through WIWW. I love your slice of life from France features. When I saw your episode the other night, I was so tickled! You are so, so darling and I thought they did a nice job with editing your story. You looked like a happy, strong family and I ADORE the house you chose. Good for you, pretty lady! Job well done.
I didn't catch the episode, will look for it online but I had a friend who did "Love it or List it". It was funny to watch because I know that it's not how she and her husband talk to eachother AT ALL! Don't worry I'm sure, as you say, those who know you know the real you. Those of us who only know you online will take it with a grain of salt :)
