missing...

two things i am missing right now...

FALL.

the colors. the weather. the clothes you get to wear.

califonia has been at least 75 or higher. it hit a whopping 106 last week. as much as i do love the warmth, i want to bust out boots, and jackets, and tights! but it looks like it's finally starting to cool off, guess i should have taken advantage of the added summer bonus huh?

THRILLER.

it's killing me i can't go see thriller this year.

it's a yearly tradition for me to see it at least 2-3 times. at least!

i guess it's a good thing lil sis didn't try out this year, or else i would have probably hopped on a plane just to go to a show.

yes that is just how much i love it.

please go see it for me.

(remember when i won free tickets syb? so much fun! miss you!)

but i am more than happy to be living in CA.

how cute is my roomie?

love her.

finally, a post.

well, i made it. and i'm sorry i'm already off to a bad start on blogging. with no camera, it makes it easy to forget about blogging. but i just learned how to blog from my phone, best invention ever. so here's my past week documented from an iphone. enjoy!


took my bike apart, and it actually all fit in my car! yippy!

how do you keep yourself entertained on the drive? play the license plate game!

ahhh home.

view from my front door. doesn't get much better than that.

watched my first california sunset. well, as a california resident.

dance party. watch the funny thing navi does with her eyes when she spins in circles.

went and watched the waves at the wedge. definitely the first of many more wedge sessions to come.

i get to snuggle and hold this baby anytime. so much fun!!

went to fhe, met some new people, made some new friends, learned how to hula. it was all in all a fun time!

we've had a few sweet painting parties here. b+r have found some awesome furniture!

my cute new wallet, $10 from tj maxx. what a steal.

does anyone else remember this popcorn? i know me and karli were OBSESSED. the butter you pour on is delicious, well i haven't seen this popcorn in a store in many years, i was so happy when i discovered it at big lots the other day!

i can't tell you how excited i am to have my bike down here. today i rode to the cute little market half of a mile away to grab a few items. i was so giddy at the fact i can actually do that now!

park time with navi.

this girl makes me so happy.

taking a walk with the babe around the block.

so there is a general idea on what i've been up to! besides looking for jobs, filling out a million applications, attempting to be social, making friends, editing & emailing. i'll keep you posted when something new or exciting happens! miss you all!

goodbye utah.
