Perfect

There couldn't have been a more perfect end to Glee. I may have even cried a little during this last song.

Just can't get enough

This little guy was in town over Thanksgiving and he will be back in a little over a week for Christmas. I seriously can't get enough of him.

Photo credits, my sis, Christina Kowallis. She's getting good huh?

Internal Twilight Debate

Logical Catie: Wow, that was really bad. Did anyone even smile in that movie?

Silly Girl Catie: Didn’t Jacob make you smile? I think I love him. Nevermind that I’m nearly a decade older.

LC: Oh yeah, you mean the guy that was pretty much Edward, except he’s a werewolf not a vampire. Yeah, wasn’t that great how ne never put on a shirt because of his elevated body temp, but yet he slept with blankets…..odd?

SGC: Wha? Shirts are completely unnecessary for werewolves. Drool….

LC: Please wipe off your chin. You’re scaring the little girls. Wait, why are there LITTLE girls here? Didn’t I just see someone’s head get twisted off?

SCG: AWWW, look! That 4 yr. old is licking the Jacob poster. Precious!

LC: Ok, leaving now.

SCG: Wait! Let’s see it again in the next 12 hours!

LC: Nope. Done.

SCG: Sadness! Farewell my Jacob.

Christmas Bows

Love these Christmas bow accessories from Kate Spade. They would add just the right amount of festiveness to any outfit.

Best game ever.

Last night D and I played the new Super Mario Bros. game for Wii. The best feature about this game? Two people can play at once! On the same screen! The days of split screens and switching on and off are over. I am loving this game.

You make my dreams come true.

I fell in love with Joseph Gordon-Levitt in this scene from 500 Days of Summer. I'm a sucker for a guy who can dance.

One more

Just can't help myself.

Going on a picnik

Picnik is my new favorite site. I edited these photos within 5 minutes. I have a feeling I'm going to be spending a lot more time there.

Guilty

This dress forced me to break my "nothing over $20 rule today." I have never bought something from Anthro, with the exception of my cute crystal drawer pulls for the vanity in my room (for $12), even though every visit to that store leaves me wiping the drool from my chin. The time had finally come, and I could not hold back any longer. Maybe when I get over my guilt the shoes and the tights will be next?

Something Old, Something New

Lately I've been finding myself scouring the KSL classifieds to find an antique dresser I can re-finish or an old wingback chair I can have re-upholstered. I blame this on my two favorite before and after blogs Design Sponge and Little Green Notebook. Here are some of my favorite before and afters. *sigh* Maybe someday I'll have my own to post.

Live long and prosper

Mustache October?

For the last little while D has been growing a beard. Generally I'm a fan of the unkept slightly rugged look, when done properly of course, but this is most definitely NOT OK!

The worst thing about this heinous strip of hair resting above his upper lip? It makes me itch. On my hands. Not kidding. Apparently I'm allergic to mustaches.

Love

I think I'm in love with Mr. Schuster.

Bake it pretty

I'm not exactly big into baking, but I think with the lovely goodies on this website I could be.

Can. Not. Wait.

Is there any possibility this movie is not going to be amazing? I think not. According to IMDB the release date is Dec. 25th. Merry Christmas to me!

Fall on a Sunday

Sunday D and I went downtown to Memory Grove and Temple Square to take some pictures with my new camera, (thanks Dad.) The leaves are gorgeous everywhere right now. Fall might win my love one day after all.

The makings of a Vulcan

My favorite part of Halloween is making my own costume. This year I am going as a Vulcan member of Star Fleet. My other half is going as Spock. NERDS! (yes, I know) I considered Ohura, but that red dress is just so teensie! Stay tuned for pictures of the finished product.

Crafty Motivation

When I first decided I was going to write a blog my main purpose for doing so was so I could showcase all my crafts I am working on. As of yet, there are no crafts for showcasing. I do, however have a four day weekend ahead of me, and I just checked out the fantastic new Amy Butler fabrics at Fat Quarter Shop. To die for!

Also, our bathroom was retiled this week, and I suddenly have the urge to improve it's appearance. I guess we'll see what kind of motivation I can find. The fabric swatches below certainly didn't hurt. Find them here.

Who are we?

"Let us be known as a people who love God with all our heart, soul and mind, and who love our neighbor as ourselves," President Dieter F. Uchtdorf Oct. 2009 LDS General Conference

I loved this talk. It brought tears to my eyes and comfort to my soul.

Anticipation

In preparation for Jim and Pam's wedding next week on the office, let's just take a look back at one of the most perfect proposals of all time.

Float On

I love this idea for a birthday party or even a wedding. How cute are these bottles? Find the labels as well as all the necessary how to's here

One singular sensation

I saw the production of A Chorus Line at Pioneer Theatre over the weekend, and it was fantastic! It will be running until Oct. 10. For tickets go here

Best movie of the year.

This movie comes out on video tomorrow, and you better believe I'll be watching it.

25

Yesterday I turned 25. I don't think I could be happier with the way my life is turing out and the people I get to share it with.
