Two weeks = 50 bucks

So Shawn thinks I'm addicted to diet coke and i told him "okay and your point is?".... so he challenged me to stop drinking diet coke for 2 weeks and if i do it he will give me 50 bucks.  At first i thought I'd rather have the coke.. but then i thought it might be a good personal challenge, what can it hurt right?  Well it's day two and I'm already blogging about my experience because i am craving that beautiful bubbly drink :)  (i know what you're thinking, but there are much worse addictions so give me a break)...  well we will see if i can make it !

You can't do it, you know you love the diet coke too much!!!! I found Anna passed out with diet coke stains all over her shirt last night. Give in to the dark side!!

I am right there with you....addicted to Diet coke that is. I am pretty sure that I would have told Brad to keep his fifty bucks by now--so I am so proud of you!!!! Way to go.

Looks like you guys are having a fun summer! Love Maddie, can she get any cuter? No, Josh isn't listening to me in bed, he is usually saying, "It's 11, will you stop talking?" Why is it we think of all the "good" conversations when they don't want to talk?
If you go shopping with me, you can get 5 cute shirts from Kohls for 50 bucks...and your mom thinks she is a bargain shopper?!! ha! ha!

Keep going. Brandon said he would buy me a lap top if I didn't bite my nails for a month. So far, I am doing a great job although I feel like a having withdrawal all the time. If I can do it so can you! We will help eachother! Plus after you get your money you can go back to drinking it:)

For everyone's information, Laura gave in and had a Diet Coke with me last night, we couldn't take it anymore and she tempted me to go to Maverick with her for the crack stuff, and I gave it. Dang It!!
