Looky what I got in the mail today...

I have been patiently waiting (okay, really? Who am I kidding. I've been having Marley check the mail box for me every day for the last week) for this mag to find it's way into my mailbox:) And yesterday after a very bizarre day I opened the lid and there it was! I'm totally digging the photos. I think my favorite is him sitting at the piano. Maybe it's all the fan fiction I've read:) He is so pretty cleaned up (but leave the stubble, me likey) and styled. I'm going to be honest...if I had to choose between Rob and Kellan, I would probably pick Kellan. Don't get me wrong I think Rob is handsome and I love him as Edward, but I also have worked in an environment where homeless drunk guys (not saying Rob is homeless or a drunk) and meth heads that don't care about their apperance and just stinky nasty people in general are brought in for public intox (or possession or DUI or whatever else) and they haven't showered for who knows how long. That smell is FOREVER in my brain. So when I see Rob wearing the same clothes in some photo that some paparazzi took and he looks all greasy it sends me into PTSD! Haha. I'm totally digging the mag though. Scottward was not thrilled when I showed him. I come bouncing in the house all excited and then when I showed him why he just rolled his eyes and continued getting ready for work. He did make the comment that "he doesn't shower and probably smells". He has to work around all those smelly people, so he knows the smell also. But you know what, Rob you clean up well and I heart your accent. You are an amazing actor and you have a long career ahead of you. Digging the mag, cheers to you!

Halloween 2009

So I decided to dress up like Jane from The Volturri:) I think my costume turned out really well. I didn't have red contacts, but I lined my eyes with red. What do you think?

The Kimballs

I LOVE how these photos turned out. I've known Deborah since she was 6 or 7. Her family is so cute. We went up to Memory Grove and it was beautiful. Cold, but beautiful. Thanks for allowing me to take your photos! I hope that you love them:)

Witches High Tea/Witches Night Out

Saturday was jam packed with stuff! My friend Amber invited me to go to the Witches High Tea at the Grand America Hotel in Downtown SLC. It was so much fun! The tea service was wonderful and the company was great! I meet the most interesting people ever and I love it! After the tea Sabrina, Kami, Shauntell, and I went to Gardner Village for Witches Night Out! It was PACKED! There were so many women there dressed up in their finest witches garb. We got our witch makeup done and looked around at the shops. I'm thinking next year we should go on Friday night instead cause maybe it would be less crowded. But we all still had a great time. After we left Gardner Village we went to see Paranormal Activity. That is the strangest movie ever. I didn't jump once which was surprising. Then again I did have my hand over my face during some of the parts of the movie:) haha. It was fun! I hope that we get to do it again next year.

Twilight Men Monster Mash - Funny!!!

I had to post this. Cracked me up!

My little hobby:)

Photography has always been my hobby, probably since I was 15 years old. So when my friend Kim and I decided to start a camera club with a few of her friends my passion for it was reignited. I know that there are a lot of photographers out there (I have a bunch of friends that are photographers) but I think I want to just to build up my portfolio and maybe get some really cool photos in the process. I'm taking photos of Scott's sister Melanie and my niece Hannah in a few weekends. I took this photo of Mark, Melanie, and Jace and tweeked it just a little bit. I think it turned out really cute. I'm not a professional, and I'm not proclaiming to be, but if you or anyone you know wants to have photos taken for fun let me know.

Paramore-Brand New Eyes

Normally I do books and Etsy shops, but I think that this CD deserves a shout out. I LOVE Paramore. My SIL turned me on to them in the summer of 2007. I've been hooked since then. Hayley has got such an incredible voice, so I could honestly recommend all of their cd's! Brand New Eyes is their latest album. It's amazing! I can't really pick out just one song that I love because I think that they are all that good. Check it out if you get the chance. Let me know what you think.

Cornbellys 2009

We packed the kiddies up and went with Mark, Melanie and Jace to Thanksgiving Point for our annual Cornbelly's fun. It was great, got lost in the corn maze and checked out all the fun stuff. Here are some of my photos:)

Love this photo of Mark, Mel, and Jace.

Liberty Park/Tracy Aviary

I decided to take the kids to the aviary this weekend since they had never been. It was pretty fun. Got some great pictures at Liberty Park also.:) Let me know what you think:)

Red Butte/SLC Library/Vivan Park

I had a SUPER busy weekend. On Saturday I went with my mom to Earthdance downtown at Library Square. I decided to take some photos of the Salt Lake City Library. Sunday morning I went with my camera club to Red Butte Gardens. BEAUTIFUL!!!! Last night I went with my in-laws to Vivian Park up Provo Canyon. The leave are so pretty this time of year. Anyway, enough rambling, let's look at some photos.

Maria Snyder: Poison Study

I loved this book, no really I LOVED this book!!!
About to be executed Yelena is offered to work for the Commander as his food taster. She will be able to taste the best food and have her own room. But she has to risk being being killed by anyone trying to assassinate the Commander. The chief of security, Valek, also isn't taking chances with her and deliberatly feeds her a poison known as Butterfly's Dust to ensure she won't try to escape. She must show up everyday for the antidote to the poison in her system or it will slowly kill her if she doesn't. As Yelena tries to escape her new dilemma, disasters keep mounting. Rebels plot to seize Ixia and Yelena develops magical powers she can't control. This book is AM. AZ. ING. There is also book two: Magic Study and book three: Fire Study. I can't wait to start Magic Study. Please give this book a chance. You will not regret it!!!

Slacker...

I've been neglecting my blog:( So sad. Things have been crazy busy. Gearing up for the New Moon Experience in November. Going to be so much fun! I entered my photos into the fair. I didn't win anything, but you know what, IT'S ALL GOOD! I at least got them out there. My aunt's photo got an honorable mention. Good for her! Kids are in school, Scott is working his crazy 6pm-6am shift. Excited that Halloween is right around the corner:) I'm sure I will have some cool stuff to update the blog with soon. Oh and I did also finish the second book of the Sookie Stackhouse series. I'm not sure if I like them. I decided I would hold off on the third book until after I have finish Maria Snyder's Poison Study. That book ROCKS! Anyway, I hope that the blogger world is doing well:) Catch ya on the flip side:)
