Movie Weekend

Ryan and I hardly ever go to new movies, we usually wait until they are at the cheap movies or on video. But, this weekend we wanted to try that Mellow Mushroom deal where you get a medium pizza, 2 drink, and 2 movie tickets for 30 dollars. Well...that was a rip off! The "free" movie tickets were only $6 dollar off cupons and don't even work for some new movies! We ended up going back to FT.O and watching the movie at that new little theater, which is really nice and cheaper. I have blabbered on about that to talk about the movie we watched, Nick and Norah, which is a really cute, funny movie. It was a lot like Juno. The next night my mom and I went out with some close family friends for a nice girls night. We ate at Big River and went to see Mamma Mia! afterwards, OMG! Why have I only heard good things about this movie?! IT was AWFUL!!!! It was the 1st movie I have ever walked out on. We were all trying to sit through it but when Pierce Brosnan started singing we were out of there, back to Big River to eat some yummy dessert and to talk about how horrible that movie was!

The Secret Life of Bees

I just saw a preview for the new movie The Secret Life of Bees and I am so excited! I read the book in high school and I loved it! I recommend everyone read it so I can have people to go with to watch the movie. It comes out Oct.17! Yay! If you have read the book click here to watch some trailers.

I HEART FALL!!

Oh my goodness! Have you been outside in the past few days?! Isn't it amazing! I serious love this time of year! I do love summer but the HOT, STICKY southern summers are horrible! I am so happy that the weather is cooling off so I can break out some cute fall clothes!

My Fall Favorites: leaves changing, fall clothes, weather, college football ( GO DAWGS), comfort foods, Thanksgiving, Halloween, this list goes on!

*The one thing I don't like about this time of year is the time change! I don't like it getting dark at 5!

What are your favorite things about fall?

Back to School!

Summer is over! Back to school. Well, I have been in school for about a month now but it has been a non stop month! I had a really large picture frame order (28 frames to be exact) and have had tons of busy work for school! I don't think I have ever had this much busy work! I am taking 15 credit hours which is normal for me but I don't remember ever having this much work! I was thinking about taking more next semester but at this rate I don't think so. To the girls out there that have finished their degrees...did you have tons and tons of busy work in your upper division classes?

NYC or BUST!

YAY!! This past weekend my mom, sister and I booked tickets for NYC!! I am so excited! We have been trying to plan this now for the past couple of years and its finally here! I have never been to the BIG APPLE!! I am finally going and have always wanted to go when all the Christmas stuff was out! To see NYC at that time of year is going to be awesome! I could go on and on about how excited I am to go but I don't want to be annoying! I just want everyone to know how dang happy I am!

Chicago!

I had a great Labor day weekend! I got to go to a city I had never been before! Chicago! I loved it! It was so awesome seeing all the sites you hear about and being in such a large fun city! I wish we could have stayed longer! We (Robin and I) got to ride the ferris wheel and we walked ALL over Chicago, never getting a taxi! We were stupid enough to go running that night after walking all day and paid for it the next two days:)! I ate some Gino's deep dish pizza and tried sushi for the first time! It was good going down but...lets just say I won't eat it for a while! All in all I had a blast and would love to go back! Thanks Robin for being such a great tour guide! Happy late Birthday!!
