Moonlight Delight

It happened.
I'm excited for fall.
I was resistant,
In fact a little grumpy about it.
But this weekend sealed the deal.
Sure, winter will come.
But fall is just so good.
the smell, the clothes, the food, the air, the trees, the holidays.

On Friday we went to Sundance to ride their Moonlight Lift.
It was beautiful.
Either Gard was one lucky man, or we were three lucky girls. Probably both.

hikety hike

I'm my ward's High Adventure co-chair.
This summer I've planned hikes in the Salt Lake area for Tuesday nights after work.
It's turned out to be a great success.
Utah is so beautiful. It is remarkable to have mountains and a number of hikes just minutes from the city.
This last Tuesday we hiked The Living Room.
It was BEAUTIFUL! I couldn't believe the view. And it's just minutes from my house. It overlooks the Salt Lake Valley---spotted with green trees and a perfect grid city.

My Rockabilly girls,

this rockabilly tribute is for you*.




*Shauna and Sarah i'm talking to YOU

couldn't stop

couldn't stop listening to this

and

couldn't stop eating this

Somebody pinch me...

Yes. I'll see them live. yes I will.

first order of business:

replacing my $4 backpack purse from D.I.
I love how this one is distressed looking, and not stiff or too bulky. Looks functional and comfortable to wear.
Yes, I think I love it.

This has enough color to be surprising, but simple enough to look sleek. Maybe it could be my Monday through Thursday back pack.

ok. i think this is the one. wait.
yep.
this is it:
now, if someone could read Japanese for me...

this site is the ultimate

it's like my mom says: "Never leave your purse visible in your car when you're on a hike"

too bad she said that AFTER the hike

window? shattered.
purse? stolen.
identity? Who am I?

same goes for Teen too. bummer sister.

it's real weird to be without money and a cellphone.
i'm really gonna miss that purse too.
and that wallet.
and that check book.
and my mini Marc Jacobs Daisy perfume
and my library card
not too worried about that license, horrific picture anyways.

besties are the best.

to be mentioned: the hike was amazing. stunning. brilliant.
