Dance Moms

This show is nuts! Haha...you HAVE to watch the video below to understand.

I randomly saw it one day and now I'm obsessed, because 1. I love dancing shows, 2. these girls are so cute, 3. the moms and the teacher are crazy! and I love it!

The girls are super young and amazing dancers, but their teacher is the meanest person I have every met. The moms really aren't the ones that are that bad. The show is about this dance team that goes around during competition season and does solos and team dances. Their teacher is just horrible though.

This is the crazy teacher.

Favorites Lately - Christmas Edition

The Nativity Story - Every Christmas Eve we read it before we go to sleep.

Elf on a Shelf - I think this is such a cute idea. I might have to do it when I have kids to make sure they are good!

Elf - still one of the funniest movies ever.

Christmas shopping! We all know how much I love shopping in general, but I love the smells and wrappings. I like coming home and going shopping with my family. And I really like finding presents for other people.

The Holiday - I love this movie too. I love Christmas movies and I love the people in this. I would probably watch this when it's not Christmas.

I didn't get to see the lights this year, but I love the lights at the temple. So pretty.

Christmas Vacation - hilarious!

Christmas Nails - I just did mine in the glitter overcoat from Sephora, but I love the candy cane nails below as well. I need to get a steadier hand though.

The Nutcracker Ballet - I miss this so much! I danced in it every year growing up, and am still in love with it. My favorite ballet.

It's a Wonderful Life - my family also watches this every Christmas Eve.

Ok...so I admit...I love this song...who doesn't love to blast this and jump around on the couch or their bed while doing so?

Glee tonight :)

A Little Country

Sugarland Concert

The Westerner

We went to the Westerner to country dance after the concert...so fun. Yes, I rode the bull.

random events lately

I've been trying to be more social lately, because I've been working so much that I HAVE to go do something when I'm done. It's been driving me nuts. Usually I'm kind just in the mood to go home and watch tv or something, but I've just been wanting to enjoy my summer a little more before it's winter I guess.

A few weeks ago I went up to Salt Lake with Aislinn and we met up with some of our friends and went to a concert at the State Room (I dont even know who it was because I didn't really care lol, but it was fun).

Blake, me, and Ais sitting outside.

Then I think two or three weeks ago, I went out with a few girls I met a while back for their birthdays just to hang out with some new people and we went to the Westerner. It was really fun actually. We all rode the mechanical bull and country danced.

This weekend, Jake surprised me and took me on a date up to Salt Lake. We got sushi and then he had gotten tickets to go see Godfrey at Wiseguys. He's on Comedy Central a lot, but he was hilarious in person. My cheeks hurt so bad because I could not stop laughing. It was a really fun night.

*Sorry for all the camera phone pictures...I keep forgetting to charge my camera!

Caitlynn and Marko - Heavy in Your Arms

Melanie and Neil - Contemporary

I'm just obsessed with Melanie. If she doesnt win I will cry.

The Adjustment Bureau

This movie was kind of interesting, but definitely entertaining. It had a different kind of perspective. A lot of people didn't recommend it so I didn't go see it in the theaters, but I thought it was pretty good. I also thought it was going to be about the government, but it was more of a love story, which I liked. And I don't want to give away the ending so I won't tell you exactly what the plot was :) I like both Emily and Matt though too.

The dancers in it were really good. They are actually from the company Cedar Lake, which is the same name as in the movie.

I think she is so beautiful.
