Happy Halloween!

Here is a picture of one of my all time favorite costumes! My mom made it for me, and I seriously wore it around the house for years! I named the horse Lightning (after the horse in Wild Hearts Can't be Broken) and I would jump over things and off things... Oh it was fun:)






p.s. I think my brother was the Rocketeer that year...

Mouse Trap


I was walking over to get soy milk from the pantry the other night and I encountered a little surprise... a furry little surprise. There was a mouse sitting on the box of trashbags just looking at me. He was very cute, but I certainly did not want him near my soy milk... so I came up with an ingenious plan. I taped a trashbag the floor and a little bit up the edges of the door and proceeded to try to scare him with a stick! It took several attempts and some team work, but the mouse ran into the trashbag and we captured him! I fell a little bad about throwing a live mouse away, but all in all I'm pretty impressed with myself:) Who knew that I was an inventor:) (or am I just pest control?)

I Love Mondays...

I love Mondays for exactly one reason...

Gossip Girl... more specifically Chuck...

In other news...
* I'm getting more hours at work (yay for the bank account boo for my sleep)
* I think it's way too hot to be almost November.
* I made ginger scones:)
* I got new gray eyeliner that matched my gray nail polish (I realize this is not exactly news, but I thought it was exciting)
* I need to start Christmas shopping!!!

(can you tell my life in pretty unexciting if these are newsworthy)

Nick and Norah




Last friday I got a chance to go see Nick and Norah's Infiite Playlist with Shell and Tessa. It was so much fun. Tessa and I said it made us want to go on an adventure... but I think everyone should go see it! You'll never look at gum the same again:)

p.s. I think I may be in love with Michael Cera

Stress?

I absolutely never thought I would ever hava a job that was stressful! I fully do not know what I expected, but certainly not this. I enjoy the enviornment and the people I work with, but stress??? Those of you who knew me in college are probably cracking up right now because I think this may be the first time I have been stressed. I can honestly say I have never felt like more of a grown up... I'm not sure I like it!

To quote Greys Anatomy....

"We're adults. When did that happen? And how can we make it stop?"

Simple Pleasures...

Here are a couple of things that i am so enjoying right now...





Anticipation...

... tonight is the season finale of Project Runway! I cannot wait to see who wins!

Nostalgia...




I should apologize in advance, because I am in full fledged nostalgia mode! Here is why: On Saturday, my mom and I went to Disneyland to renew our passes. As we were leaving we randomly ran into some dear friends of ours from Virginia! It was honestly so amazing, but so surprising! None of us expected this to happen, so we were all literally speechless! The reason they were here is because one of their daughters, Molly, is in the Marines and she is going to Iraq tomorrow. She is living in San Diego right now, so her family came to see her off. Please keep Molly in your prayers. Well I have also recently learned how to scan pictures into the computer, so I'm going to post some old and some new!


This me and Molly in highschool (we've known them since I was in 3rd grade!)


This is us at Dland on Saturday!


This is Molly, Ashton, and myself. I have some of the greatest memories with these girls!
