Travis Meiers teaches third grade in California and he invited his class to write the vows for his ceremony. He and his fiance were (pleasantly) surprised by how awesome they turned out! Here's a little bit of what the kids came up with. It sounds like Ms Racheal is getting the better end of the deal. Haha!
"Mr. Meiers promises to give Ms. Racheal 8 billion kisses every day."
"Ms. Racheal promises to travel all around the world with Mr. Meiers in a giant car that he bought for her."
"Mr. Meiers promises to buy Ms. Racheal a Lamborghini, and let her keep the change."
"Ms. Racheal promises never to change because Mr. Meiers likes her just the way she is."
"Mr. Meiers promises to always sit by Ms. Racheal on roller coasters."
"Mr. Meiers promises to buy Ms. Racheal a Komodo dragon."
"Mr. Meiers promises to be more like Johnny Depp."
....or maybe she just doesn't like seeing him kiss her bestie, Selena Gomez? Check out her reaction to their backstage PDA last night at the Billboard Music Awards. Hehe!
According to a recent article, the real reason some people are "unlucky in love" is NOT because they aren't doing the right things on a date......they are simply picking the WRONG people to focus their romantic attention on.
How do you fix this problem? One expert says you have to give your subconscious "Love Picker" a tuneup. Here's how:
1. Break bad patterns. Look for common themes in your relationships and figure out where the patterns have their roots. Try to identify the underlying fear you likely have of actually getting close to someone. Face the fear so you can break the bad pattern.
2. Pay attention to your dreams. Your dreams are a treasury of insight and information to guide you on your journey to a fulfilling relationship. They speak to you in symbolic language so you need to journal about them and follow your inner guidance.
3. Create an inner dialogue. Work with your subconscious mind by visualizing and facing the part of you that acts as the picker. Ask yourself questions and trust the answers that come to you.
4. Get a guide. Hire a coach that specializes in subconscious work. This is the fastest way to get yourself aligned with love.

You know how guys are the BIGGEST babies when they get a cold? Yeah.....so, I don't know how these guys thought they could handle CHILDBIRTH.....but, watching them experience simulated childbirth is both satisfying and hilarious at the same time. What do you want to bet their Moms got extra-nice Mother's Day gifts this year? ;-)
Seriously guys......it goes on just like this......for hours.....and women do it every day. ;-)
Angelina Jolie is a very private person. She is also young and healthy, which is why it was shocking to read her announcement in the NY Times that she has had a double mastectomy to reduce her chances of getting breast cancer. You can read the whole thing here. She says she hopes her story will inspire other women fighting the life-threatening disease.
After her mother died, of cancer, at 56....Angelina underwent testing to see if she also carried the gene that is linked to a higher risk of cancer. She found out that she also
carries the 'faulty' gene." She says her doctors had estimated she had an 87 percent risk of breast cancer and 50 percent risk of ovarian cancer.
"Once I knew this was my reality, I decided to be proactive and to minimize the risk as much as I could. I made a decision to have a preventive double mastectomy," she said.
"I choose not to keep my story private because there are many women who do not know that they might be living under the shadow of cancer. It is my hope that they, too, will be able to get gene tested."
Breast cancer alone kills about 458,000 people each year, according to the World Health Organization. It is estimated that one in 300 to one in 500 women carry a BRCA 1 or BRCA 2 gene mutation, as Jolie does. If you have a history of breast or ovarian cancer in your family, please talk to your doctor about testing. Knowledge is power and knowledge gives you options!
Thank you for using your celebrity spotlight to raise awareness and save lives, Angelina. We wish you and your family all the best as you heal.
An American Airlines flight from L.A. to N.Y.C. had to make an emergency landing last week, so this woman could be taken off the plane. Seems she wouldn't stop singing....the SAME Whitney Houston song.....over and over......for hours. LOL! Of course, I'm laughing because I wasn't on the plane with her. What else do you wish people could get kicked off for?
Experts say the HOT trend in baby names is......old-fashioned, classic names like Emma, Myrtle, and Vivianne. Here's the list of the most popular baby names of the 1890's. I'll bet you'll see more than a few of your friends' babies on here:
I'm not the biggest fan of celebrities becoming politicians and running our country, but apparently many Americans have no problem with it at all. In fact, if they had their choice, we'd be saying President Timberlake someday. According to MTV, Americans were asked which celebrity they would most like to see become president of the United States, the top answer was Justin Timberlake, with 34 percent of the vote. Behind Timberlake in the poll, although not close behind, are Adele and Beyoncé, receiving 19 and 14 percent of the vote, respectively. Taylor Swift also received a favorable rating.
Only one artist was unanimously disliked by people of all three parties: Justin Bieber. According to MTV, 54 percent of Democrats, 56 percent of Republicans and 56 percent of Independents disliked the singer. However, he wasn't the only singer who was seen unfavorably. Chris Brown, Lady Gaga, Jay-Z and Rihanna were also disliked.
What celeb would you like to see as President someday?

I can't believe this is a real thing.....but, in a "Today" Show Moms survey of 7,000 U.S. mothers, 42 percent said that they sometimes suffer from Pinterest stress – the worry that they're not crafty or creative enough..... And striving for perfection is a major source of stress for moms: One in four mothers told TODAY that the pressure they put on themselves to be perfect is a top cause of stress. The result? Mom's average stress level is 8.5 out of 10, the survey says. Experts say the fix is to spend less time on Pinterest, but I have a better cure. Just spend some time looking at all of the real-life Pinterest fails here: http://www.pinterestfail.com/
See! I'll bet you feel better already. You're welcome!
Ok guys....you've probably been to enough sporting events to know there is a Kiss Cam. There is ALWAYS a Kiss Cam....and if you take a date, you have to be ready to kiss her when it catches you. That's the deal when you take a date and not some buddies to the game. Right? Clearly, this guy did not get that memo......and you've GOT to see what his girlfriend did when he brushed her off during a visit from the Kiss Cam. Hilarious! He totally deserved that.
Have you ever wondered why you can't find any pants bigger than a size 10 at Abercrombie & Fitch? It's probably because this man, Mike Jeffries, doesn't want girls bigger than a size 10 to wear them. He is A&F's big boss and he told Salon magazine: "It's (image is) almost everything. That's why we hire good-looking people in our stores. Because good-looking people attract other good-looking people, and we want to market to cool, good-looking people. We don't market to anyone other than that,"
Jeffries also told Salon that he wasn't bothered by excluding larger people. He said, "In every school there are the cool and popular kids, and then there are the not-so-cool kids. Candidly, we go after the cool kids. We go after the attractive all-American kid with a great attitude and a lot of friends. A lot of people don't belong [in our clothes], and they can't belong. Are we exclusionary? Absolutely. Those companies that are in trouble are trying to target everybody: young, old, fat, skinny. But then you become totally vanilla. You don't alienate anybody, but you don't excite anybody, either."
Wow. He not only admits it.....he's proud of it. BTW.....he has said in other places that he only wants people aged 18-22 to wear A&F clothes. He is 68. Is he a HUGE hypocrite or just being honest? Share your thoughts in the comments!
Incredible news story out of Cleveland yesterday. Three women who were missing for TEN YEARS......were found and rescued by this man. He lives next door to the kidnapper and as he says in this interview, he never saw any sign or clue that something was wrong. He tells the story in this interview......it's like something out of a movie. He kicked in a door to rescue them and everything!
Everyone has a friend on Instagram or Facebppk or Twitter that is CONSTANTLY sharing pics of their food. Sure those pics can be annoying when you're hungry.....or eating PB&J AGAIN.....but....are they a sign of a bigger problem? Dr. Valerie Taylor, associate professor at the University of Toronto and psychiatrist-in-chief at Women's College Hospital in Toronto, says it is a sign that the person is over preoccupied with their food.....and that is one fo the signs of an eating disorder. You can read more here.
Have you seen this yet? I have to say.....she doesn't seem THAT drunk, just mad.....really, REALLY mad. Note to self......NEVER pull attitude and argue with the cop who pulled you over. There's just no way to win that one....no matter who you are. ;-)

.....and so will these other 9 foods. Looks like no more "wine wednesdays" for me. ;-(
Sugar
There are several reasons why a sugar-filled diet makes you look older. When there is excess sugar in the body, it attaches itself to collagen, making the skin look stiff and inflexible.
Salt
Salt dehydrates the body. When you are dehydrated, you become fatigued, which makes you look tired and worn out.
Coffee
Coffee and caffeinated products also dehydrate the body, making you look tired and worn out.
Candy
The sugar in candy causes inflammation in the body and can make skin look wrinkled and old.
Artificial Sweetener
Artificial sweeteners such as aspartame are associated with headaches and joint pain and can make you crave sweets.
Alcohol
Consuming too much alcohol dehydrates your body and causes wrinkles, loss of collagen, redness and puffiness. Alcohol also messes with your metabolism, making it more likely that you will pack on the pounds.
Energy Drinks
Energy drinks damage the enamel in your teeth eight times more than soda does. This erosion makes your teeth look yellow and unhealthy.....and old!
Carbohydrates
Eat too many carbs and it can damage the collagen and fibers in your skin, leading to wrinkles and sagginess
Fried Food
Fried food contributes to collagen break down in the skin, making your skin look wrinkled and worn out.
Soda
As a beverage high in sugar, soda tends to dehydrate the body. This fatigues the body and makes you look tired. there's also a LOT of salt in sodas, which also dehydraytes your skin.
Awwwwww.....this is so cute!

The new single, "Live It Up" by J. Lo and Pitbull is bound to be a summer anthem for many. Check out the fresh video that was recently released. If this doesn't get you amped to hop on a boat and wear yellow lipstick, I'm not sure what will....
