"THATS SO PORTER!" This is something my husband and I say often. What does it mean you ask? It's basically something really quirky, crazy, or fabulous that we do. We are the Porter's, Jacob Cody, Brittney Leigh, and Lula Girl. We have the most imperfect, screwed up, but happy life. We work hard, love hard, and play hard. We love the Lord, our families, our friends, our puppy, and are pursuing our dreams. We know that we are full of flaws and continuously trying to work on them, but we also recognize we are human. We are messy, adventurous, and just trying to thrive despite our circumstances. We know we are blessed, but also incredibly busy during this phase in our life. Finding time together is hard but when we do, DANG it is fun!
Some of the things that are "so Porter"...
*Leaving the price tags on everything. We lived in our house for 2 years and left the price tags on EVERYTHING. When we moved we sold everything on craigslist and it was kinda nice because since the pricetags were still there we could claim "new man recliner that my wife is making me sell because its so comfortable and doesn't match the couch well enough" ~Thats so Porter
*Not having enough money for Christmas presents so doing a trade off: I gave him a 20 minute back massage and he let me pluck his nosehairs out while he screamed in pain. It brought me so much joy, mwuahaha...The best part is when I ran upstairs to get the tweezers he started ripping as many of them out as he could...I thought our dog had started shedding in the bed..(yah gross tmi) ~Thats so Porter
*Being such regulars at McAllisters Deli that when we were home visiting after a year of being away the staff cheered and had our sweet tea no lemon ready before we walked in the door ~Thats so Porter
*Deciding on a whim the night before Jacob started his job as a po-po and Brittney started her third semester of hell...i mean anesthesia school... that it would be smart to drive 2.5 hours and buy a puppy off craigslist with no research, preparation or dog supplies at all.Chalked it up to a quarter life crisis and best decision of 2012 ~Thats so Porter
*We describe our love as acinetobacter. Yes that is a bacteria. But not just any bacteria. It can adapt and overcome almost any antibiotic given to fight it off..I used to have patient's in the ICU get it all the time and for some reason my husband (who doesnt really enjoy talking medical anything) clung to that word....soooo its kinda cute right? Not really but we like it. The Porter's love is like acinetobacter, we adapt and overcome all kinds crazy circumstances...
ANYWAYS: There will be plenty more #thatsoporter to come! Hope EVERYONE has an AWESOME New Years Eve! Got my sparkle tights and heels on, should be a great night! WOOTWOOT!
