I pulled out the wii which had been boxed up since my move and bought Mario Kart. Love it, why didn't I get it out sooner?
Next purchase: Guitar Hero
Because I totally rock.

Robert Mondavi Private Selection 2007 Pinot Noir
I bought this for our thanksgiving this year, it was a hit! And it's not too expensive, it's in the $12 range.
Good wine, good price.

Red Mary Janes
I'm going to be Little Red Riding Hood for Halloween. When I saw these shoes at the costume store I knew I had to have them. They are perfect! They make me like 6'4" but hey, it's Halloween!

Park City
I've met a friend who lives in Park City so I've been heading down there a lot over the past month or so. Hiking, Campfires, Biking, Clubin, & Dining. It's really starting to grow on me.
Especially because I get to see my boyfriend, Gus!

Sugar House Coffee
Since I've moved to Salt Lake I have found some great places to hang out & Sugarhouse Coffee is one of my favs. They are open until midnight every night and two am on weekends.
I love socializing & meeting new people here, or just going to do homework!
Plus they have delicious chai. Not as good as Beans & Brews but a close second.

Wicked! Roller Coaster
Ok so I've been to Lagoon twice this summer. I don't care what anyone says, I'm 29 and I still love it. This is my favorite rollercoaster ever.
It shoots you straight up right away and then straight back down. I'm thinking of changing my last name to Wicked.
Grand Pooba Wicked
Has a nice ring to it...

Decorating
Things are finally starting to come together at my house. I love all the ledges and high ceilings where I can add little (or big) accents!

Ballerina Painting
I'm lovin this painting in my bedroom, I found it at TJ Max for only 20 bucks! Now I just want to get a dark cherry-ish wood frame to match my bed frame. The house is slowly coming together.
Slowly.

New Kitchen Island
The kitchen in my townhouse has a lot of space and a lot of cupboards, which I love! So I thought and island would be perfect, okay so it was actually Lindee's idea, but I love it. We went to Ikea and found the perfect one that matches my kitchen.

My New Couch
The fun part of moving is that you get to pick out new furniture. My old couch was way too big for my townhome so I got an awesome deal on this one and it's the perfect size.
And it's pretty comfy too :o)

My New Kitchen Table
Since moving into my new place I've spent about 3 weeks with no furniture. I found this kitchen table at Ashley furniture and it is the perfect size for the SMALL space and it finally arrived!
Plus it matches my wine cabinet, I love it!

The Art Fair
I went to the art fair last Sunday with Dad and Logan. All Logan wanted to do was play in the water.
Of course.
What I love about festivals in Salt Lake is that you get to meet all kinds of different people. Like this dude.
I've never met a guy in a dress before. (who wasn't a drag queen of course. Love me some drag queens!)

Big Train Spiced Chai
You can buy it at Beans & Brews. Hot or iced, it's amazing. Add a little cinnamon and it's even better.
This is a staple now at my house!

Princess Nagger Wild Blueberry Blush Wine
Opened this up last week with Lindee at a watch making party, it's very light and sweet. Just like me.
HAHAHAHA! Totally kidding.
You know I'm kidding right?
Right?

Wine Appeal Label Remover Kit
Okay, so I collect wine labels. So what? They're pretty!
Anyway, I've tried a million different brand of wine labels and they ALL suck except for these. So if you want to be a wine label nerd too, make sure you get the Wine Appeal Label Remover Kit.

Beans & Brews Java Taman Dadar Coffee Beans
Not the beans themselves of course but the coffee you make with them.
But I'm sure you could eat the beans whole if you really wanted to.

Cheers Wine Carrier
I love my wine carrier, it keeps the bottle at the right temperature, it's easy to carry and protects the bottle from braking.
Which is very important if you know how clumsy I am.
(Even before drinking the wine!)

Flowers Given To Me By My Two Sister In Laws
My sis in laws are so sweet and so thoughtful. The day after Dozer died these beautiful flowers showed up on my doorstep.
They totally made my day.

Champagne Glasses
There's something about champagne glasses that just make me happy. Maybe it's because champagne is served for celebrations so I associate them with feeling content.
I love the skinny sleek flute design that accentuates the champagne bubbles and the long stem that just sings of sophistication.
They are just beautiful.

Redken Outshine 01
I love this stuff. You apply it to your hair while it is still wet and it protects against blow drying and flat irons plus it makes your hair really really shiny!
Love!

Black Stone Pendant Necklace
This is my "go to" necklace. Since black is the dominate color of my work wardrobe, this necklace goes with just about anything. My sweet seester gave it to me a couple years back for my birth.
