Is it just me?


Or did JCrew become AMAZING all of a sudden?! Check out their fall line here. Also I think I have a preoccupation with yellow. (I blame you Nikki : )

A chance to help



I am starting to believe that there is no such thing as tragedy. There is only opportunity for growth, and should you accept it, the reward overcomes the sailing of the hardship. -cjane
For those of you who have not heard, Stephanie Clark Nielson and her husband were in a terrible plane accident and are hospitalized. I have been following the news on Stephanie's sisters blog cjanerun ever since my mom told me the news. Please go and read all about it on cjane, her posts about her sister are poignant and moving. Whether you know this dear family or not, this is a wonderful chance to help another human being. Please donate to Nie recovery and send along your thoughts and prayers.

Tag, I'm it.

I am...hungry.

I think...about everything, way to much. To much thinking not enough doing.

I know...the words to countless songs.

I want...to travel, immediately. To Spain.

I have... a tremendous husband.

I wish...to be successful.

I hate...that word, hate.

I miss... Grandpa, The Garys, Lindsey, Greece, London, Paris.

I fear...to much, fear is the polio that keeps us from walking by faith.

I feel... tired, really tired and a little confused as to why Obama picked Biden.

I hear...beck

I smell...massaman curry.

I search...for the perfect bag, and shoes that fit.

I wonder...if I will ever finish school.

I regret...to much, goes back to that less thinking and more doing.

I love...my family.

I care...about my dear friends.

I always... always, am in the mood for good company and good food, preferably together.

I am not...on time.

I believe...in the goodness of people.

I dance... when alone, a lot.

I sing... in the car and shower.

I don't...do enough for those in need.

I write...no.....I BLOG!

I win... at Guitar hero, all the time.

I lose... at freaking Perudo, damn you Justin.

I never...try purposefully to hurt someone or eat at McDonald's.

I listen...to good, good music.

I can usually be found... at work. I would like to be found in a foreign country.

I am scared of...wasting my life.

I read... Ton's of Blogs, I am a little obsessed at the moment.

I am happy about... my life, it is pretty great.

I tag.... Annie, Jenna, Allison & Nicole.

Doesn't get any cuter

A day off






Luke and I had a day off together which lately have been few and far between, so we headed up to SLC. We had a lovely lunch at ACME Burger (veggie burger is amazing thanks Nicci for recommending) which was indeed anything but ordinary and quite tasty as well. We walked around Temple Square around sunset it was gorgeous and hardly anyone was there, it was a great afternoon.

...with a little help from my friends



It's amazing what you miss when you don't go to the movies very often. Steve & Allison had to expose us to the greatness that is Across The Universe! We loved it, and are kicking ourselves for not seeing it in the theaters. So if your like us and missed the boat on this one, go rent it immediately.
