Moving Day

Barn

Barn by Mad Sky carries these really cute baby clothes. I bought my sister I swaddling blanket in this print.

West Meets Martin

When living in Hawaii one can become out of touch with the music scene. That is of course unless you love Hawaiian music or really bad cover songs. So when I come home I get the chance to catch up on what I've missed. Last week I was introduced to Kanye's new song, Homecoming, which features Coldplay's Chris Martin and now I'm addicted. I can't get enough of it.

Baby Shower

Here are a couple of pictures from the baby shower we had last night. My sister only has a few weeks left until her little one comes. I think the shower was well received. As for me, I'm just happy it's over.

Expiration Date

On Saturday we ventured south to visit friends and family. While we were there we went and saw the indie movie, Expiration Date. The movie was really quite excellent. It's a dark comedy about a young man who carries a family curse; death by a milk truck on his 25th birthday. With eight days left, viewers watch as Charlie accepts fate and takes care of his "to do" list. It's clever, funny, and delightful. I highly recommend checking it out.

First Day of Fall

I forgot how much I love fall. It's been a long time since I've been in a climate that produces seasons. Today was beautiful. The leaves have started to change their color, the air is dry and crisp, and there were pumpkins out at the supermarket. We went up to Leslie's cabin in Midway to celebrate the autumnal equinox with friends.

A Quiet Afternoon

Loving Wii

My brothers have a Nintendo Wii and we have been having so much fun playing it. I really like Mario Party 8 and playing tennis on Wii Sports. However, I think my favorite thing about the Wii is making new Mii's.

New Ride

After our second day of shopping we finally found a car we were really happy with. Today we purchased a 2006 Jeep Liberty Sport. Next on the list, a tow hitch.

Car Shopping

After catching up on the sleep we lost during our red eye flight to Salt Lake, we set off to find a new car today. We test drove a couple of Jeep Liberty's, a Honda Element, a Nissan Pathfinder and a Jeep Patriot.
