7 Reasons Why I Watch 'Fixer Upper'
www.gospelherald.com

"Fixer Upper" is not like any other HGTV show. They have brought a different type of dynamic to this channel. They act real. Unlike many of the other TV hosts, they seem real. It doesn't feel like they are reading a script and it's like you are actually watching the real Chip and Joanna Gaines on TV. I don't only just watch the show because of how amazing the interior designs or the constructions of the houses but rather I watch it because of Chip and Joanna. Here are the reasons why I watch Fixer Upper:

1. Their relationship


They are literally relationship goals! When you watch the show it is as if you are actually seeing their relationship and not something that is fake or scripted. Plus you can't write some of the things Chip says.

2. Their children

They have made some of the most beautiful human beings on the planet with their sun-kissed hair, golden tan, light freckles and I don't feel weird saying that. Clearly I have watched this show way too many times. Also, they say some of the cutest things on the show.

3. Their values

You can see their values when you watch the show. For example, how they always make a way to eat dinner together as a family no matter what. It's amazing to see their Christian values slowly seep through the show, but it is not overpowering that it puts you off. It's refreshing to see a Christian based family on a well-known TV channel. Also, if you haven't seen Joanna's testimony then you should really watch it. Here is the link.


4. They are funny

I love how every time the show starts it begins with a blooper and it never fails to make me laugh. The things Chip says are unreal and sometimes I don't know how Joanna deals with him. Especially the time he ran through the wall just because and probably hurt himself, but said it was awesome.


5. Shiplap

Shiplap over shiplap it is one of Joanna's core pieces when designing a house and I love it. I honestly never get tired of it. It's something that I have never seen in houses from where I am from. I love the idea of exposing your house and seeing what is underneath and then making it a decoration.


6. The farmhouse

Is it weird to be in love with this house? Because I am! I love the whole story behind the farmhouse and the design. Also the fact that is has 40 acres of land is amazing. I just want to go to Waco, Texas just to see this house and actually see the layout of the house because it's still a mystery to me.

7. The design

Some people criticize Joanna how she does the same design over and over again and I beg to differ. Yes, she does use shiplap and distressed wood often, but that is her design. It's the type of design she likes. What makes her different from the other TV designers is she always makes it personal to the client. She includes that one thing that speaks to the client.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
