Wonder Woman and Friends

So I just finished taking a midterm and was able to leave class a little early. I figured I would take this extra half hour and update my blog because I know I just won't this week. It's going to be a crazy stressful midterm week! Can you believe it's November already???? 6 more weeks in my semester!! I just finished registering for my last 4 classes and I'm slightly excited for spring.

Anyway, let's get to the goods. I hope that everyone was able to do some fun Halloween things this weekend.On Friday, I went and picked pumpkins, got lost in a corn maze, rode haunted hayrides, and walked through a haunted corn maze . Saturday was my 2nd year in a row going to see the Odyssey Dance Company perform their Thriller Dance Show. I recommend it to anyone who is ever visiting Salt Lake, Provo, Ogden, Logan, or St. George (lol) during the months of September and October. It's such a fun time. If I live here next October I'm definitely going to see it again.

After Thriller, we hung out for a couple hours and put finishing touches on costumes we were all planning on wearing.  Then we all got all prettied up and hit up a couple parties. I had an amazing time. It was definitely the break I needed right before midterms.

Andrea's Birthday

If you're reading my blog than you're probably my friend and if you're my friend than you probably know that birthdays in my family are no joke. We always take the time to make someone's birthday a big deal and do whatever the birthday girl/boy wants.

Andrea's birthday landed on a Monday this year. Pretty inconvenient because everyone knows that the best day to celebrate your birthday is your actual birthday. We celebrated on Saturday and still made it fun.

Anyway, we all went to dinner at La Carreta. My family loves that place. It's the only restaurant you can get good Peruvian food. We're still looking for an awesome chinese place. Why is the food better on the east coast? Hell, why is it that everything is better on the east coast??? After  dinner we went to Hee Haw Farms and participated in the Halloween festivities.  We walked through the corn terrors and rode the haunted hayride.  Photos weren't allowed on the rides but you'll have plenty of us to look at.

Wedding Bells Toll

Last weekend I went to a wedding at the St. Regis in Park City. It was beautiful. The appetizers were amazing. The weather was gorgeous and as an FYI St. Regis has the best hot chocolate in the entire world.  I highly recommend it to anyone who might ever visit Park City. I messed up and didn't take lots of cute pictures but I am more than willing to share the ones I did take. My favorite part of the wedding was definitely the cartoonists she had there to draw our pictures. It was such a cute idea. I really wish I would have taken more pictures of the view or the food or the way everything was laid out. These will have to do.

Babies make me smile

I know, I know, babies make everyone smile. But I do appreciate the time I get to spend with my friend's kids because kids grow so fast that you're always missing one important moment or another. This weekend I went to a beautiful wedding at the St.Regis in Park City. I regret that I didn't take tons of pictures (there'll be a post on that). Anyway, Tristen was in town with little Harrison for the wedding so I got to spend some time with him after a year or so! All I wanted to do was cuddle and hold but he wasn't having too much of that. He's pretty independent. My favorite is the picture of him in the stroller because he was totally just relaxing and chilling with his head behind his hands while I did all the work. I loved it!

The Proper Care and Maintenance of Friendship

" That night I knew it wasn't the end of us- that the thing that bound us together, that thing we all understood deep, was that life-however we chose to live it- was something you embraced with open eyes and a full heart- and that if we made an effort, we could be friends like this forever."

-Lisa Verge Higgins, The Proper Care and Maintenance of Friendship

I love this man

And I'm talking about Christie. Not Mitt. However, if Chris is giving Romney the thumbs-up, I might start paying more attention to him. Since Christie decided not to run for President (even though everyone thought he would win) but stick it out in Jersey his numbers have gone up and up. I was talking to my friend about this and now I really believe it's true:I have an exaggerated sense of loyalty and I swear it's because I'm from Jersey. I love Chris and when I was scared he would leave Jersey, he chose not to. Now I love him even more.

Stupid Hoe

Leaving Ryan Reynolds was the stupidest thing Scarjo EVER did. In the words of Stephen," She's a stupid hoe!" That is one fine man!!!

Golden State

After more than a year and a half I finally got to see my California vacation pictures. I liked them so much I wanted to share. I am a sucker for all things tourists so when I went to go visit Janelle I made her take me to all the tourist spots. (I wanted to see a Kardashian so bad!!) I am proud to say we got most of them out of the way! Although I wasn't a fan of LA I did love Beverly Hills ( who doesn't, right?). However, I LOVED LOVED LOVED San Diego. Maybe one day!
