Bachelorette ~ The Final TWO!

Gotta say, I am proud of that girl.
She stuck by her principles and didn't do any overnights.

I was worried that she wouldn't.

And after all her talk about being a good girl,

she actually is which is a breath of fresh air.

I am actually even more impressed with Jef.

Cuz he turned her down.

Well, you know what I mean.

He wanted to respect her so he told her before she could tell him.

Good boy!

As for Arie, she was smart.

They do have quite the physical connection.

Rather than play with fire, she left it alone not even offering him the card.

Wow.

Then there was Sean.

I've never understood the connection.

I know he is "perfect" but sometimes that isn't good enough.

Their relationship pales in comparison to Jef and Arie.

Honestly, I thought she was going to take good ol' Sean to the end.

Well, not the end end but to the final 2.

He just seemed to be a "safe" choice.

I was HOPING for an Arie/Jef final 2.

I just didn't know if she would really follow her heart.

She has one hell of a decision between those 2 boys.

I mean, look at the chemistry between her and Arie.

It is undeniable.

Does she follow that intense attraction?

Or does she go for Jef?
Ya know, I have a thing for him.

He is just so absolutely cute and sweet and a little wild.

Just enough.

And I have said it before.

I like how he played hard to get at the beginning.

That was a good move.

Oh Sean.

I'm so sorry you put your heart on the line.

And I know that Emily didn't make it easy.

Because looking at your last date, it seemed like she was totally in to you.

But alas, your time has ended.

I don't think you will be single for long.
I'm sure the girls are lining up!

Now...my prediction.

This is a hard one.
Both boys are amazing.

They are very different.

Emily is going to have a tough choice.

But my bet is on Jef.

He just seems to be a better fit all the way around.

And Emily is looking for that.

I would love to see Arie at the end but I just don't think Emily

will take that chance...kind of what she had with Brad.

Mad chemistry.

Arie...I'll take you in a heartbeat.

oops, don't tell my hubs that, hehe

Can't wait for next week.

Is Ryan for real???

I wanna see what he has to say.

That's it!

If you got through all this,

don't forget to enter to win the Millie Tote!

You may enter through midnight tonight!

The Bachelorette Recap

Ah, I am very proud today.

After watching The Bachelorette,

I am happy to say I am proud of Emily thus far.

My favorite guys are still in the running.

BUT, I know that Arie's time is running out.

Thanks to the previews for next week.

GEEZ...could he have said SOMETHING?!?

Let me just get off that soap box cuz honestly,

I'll hunt him down for myself.

please don't tell my hubs...oops...reality tv crushes

Ok, forget who she kept.

Let's talk about who Emily sent packing.

GOODBYE RYAN!!!!

Sorry, the cockiness just wasn't attractive, period.

And what is up with that wife beater?
A little too trendy for my taste.

Was I the only one that couldn't believe he was still trying

to talk her out of his decision?
OHHHH...and what about his taxi ride?
Don't make him look arrogant?
Seriously dude, you did that on your own.

Let's not forget Travis.

What a sweetie!
I mean, for real...why did it take so long for him to get some screen time?

Totally fell for him.

Wish he were still here.

Mwah...Travis, you will be missed.

And for the boys that are still here.

Sean, Jef, Arie, Doug, John and Chris.

Wishing for Arie to be around.
Loving that Jef is finally getting a bit agressive.

Thinking Sean busted that log when he threw it and that is sexy.

Hoping Doug grows a bit of a bad streak cuz he's hot.

Feeling wishy-washy about Chris.

Admiring John for sharing that he carries his

grandparents obituary in his wallet.

So who is next?
I honestly want to freeze time.

I don't want the one person I love to leave.

Wait, who is the Bachelorette here?
Me or Emily?

Guess I need to leave the final decision to her. 

BOO...is it Monday yet?

Confessions of a Bachelorette Addict

Well, I am a reality tv junkie.

I admit it.
I have a serious problem.

Honestly, it almost doesn't matter what the subject matter is,

so long as it is reality tv...I'm hooked.

Ok, not so completely true.
I do have a few shows I must see.

Like from beginning to end.

But with the triplets around, I never see it

during prime time hours which is fine with me.

That means I can watch it while I sew.

So, this brings me to the show of the moment.

The Bachelorette.

I love Emily.

Ok, at first, when she was on Brad's show,

I wasn't so hot for her.

I thought she was a "fake".

Turns out, she really isn't.

She is just a good Southern girl lookin' for love Dolly Parton style.

And I like that.

I love how she is all about her daughter.

How this show, although about her finding love,

is also about giving her daughter some experiences

she may not otherwise have.

So, bravo Emily!

Now, let's get on to the men.

I've got a couple of faves.

In this order...

Arie... be-still my heart...

My Lord...I'm in love with this kid.

I think they are perfect for each other.

Maybe it is the Dutch in me but he's just got the whole package.

{and yes, I have heard of a horrible spoiler...don't tell me}

Then there is Jef.

Yeah, he and Arie...they are tied.

It all started with him coming in on a skateboard.

Doesn't get any better than that.

And he is SOOOOOO not stuck on him self like the others.

Kind heart and not an evil bone in this man's body.

But then we have the one I really don't like...

Oh Ryan, Mr. Jock-I-think-I-am-God's-gift-to-women...

And realllllllly?
Emily, you still have him around?

Is it his cockiness and over abundant confidence?

Pray tell.

I just hope he isn't the next Bachelor.

Cuz I just might not watch.

don't believe a word i say, of course i would watch

Now, there are a few good in between guys.

Doug, Sean, and Chris

I've liked Doug from the beginning.

Part of him seems too good to be true.

And the chemistry isn't there like it is with Arie.

But I think he is yummy and I love how much he loves his son.

Gotta cheer for a fellow Texan!
GOOOOO SEAN!

And this guy seems pretty genuine.

I think this past episode really showed something

good happening between him and Emily.

BUT...he's not my type.

Oye...Chris.

She thought he was the most good looking on there.

Um, I would disagree but he is still super sweet on the eyes.

And he has a great personality.

And he is caring.

But is Emily already in love with someone else?

These are the guys I think will make it past the next cut.

AND BRAVO EMILY...thank you for kicking off Kalon.

Bad attitude, wrong reasons to be on the show.

Which brings me to ask...why does Houston throw

out some of the worst "socialites" on this show?
{for those that don't remember, Erica Rose...on the prince season}

Ah, from one fellow Houstonian to another,

Kalon please get your act together and
find the inner Southern gentleman

that you were raised to be.

So, there you have it.

My thoughts thus far on this season.

Debated sharing but then I said,

"It's my blog, hehe...I'll share if I want to."

Hopefully it is mildly entertaining.

Happy Wednesday Peeps!
