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!

Finally.

I got my bangs. I slightly love them. I hope you all do too.

You win some, You lose some

So this summer, I did go to Jersey and Arizona but not California or New York I didn't make it to the top of the Statue of liberty or Niagara Falls or Coit Tower. However, I did do some other things to make up for it. I made it to Mt. Rushmore!....

and Carthage....

and Nauvoo......

and the arch in St. Louis (my favorite).....

and the Grand Canyon!!!!!

I had fun everywhere that I went. I loved getting to see so many of my friends along the way and of course I loved spending time at the Jersey shore! I don't see any vacations in my near future so this will have to last for a while. My two favorite things were Mt. Rushmore with Stephen and the arch in St. Louis with my friend Erica.
