life updates.

i thought id come by and give everyone an update on my life and what i have been up to.

i currently live in denver, colorado. i moved here on july 21st.

i went to boston, new jersey, and new york city (post coming soon) from july 24-august 7th.

i took a small trip to coeur d'alene and met a wonderful person and got to visit my best friend.

(has anyone ever realized how beautiful north idaho is? coeur d'alene was such a cute, gorgeous little town.)

my sister rylee came to visit me. she paid for her own ticket and everything.

i nanny for the cutest little five month old baby named alivia.

i saw beach house play at the boulder theatre.

i learned how to fishtail braid thanks to my wonderful roommate.

i also taught myself to do a crown braid.

i fell in love with bold lipsticks.

so not too much is new. last i did an entry though, i was still living in idaho, so i figured it was about time to say hi. i hope everyone has been doing well, especially as we're getting into the holiday season. can you believe how close thanksgiving and christmas are? yay!

life according to my iphone lately

baby gavin !! (thats one of my best friend's rachel's son). he is SO adorable its unbelievable. he will be one in two weeks. i can't believe how fast time has gone by this year and im not even his mom! i must say that i am a very proud auntie though.

also i have pictures of myself with my little sister addison. she is adopted from china. she is so cute and smart. we went to a hockey game with my dad that night (he's in one of the pictures as well). at the hockey game we decided to have a little sisterly photoshoot. there were about a billion more pictures of just us but i love the ones i put up the most.

then there is baby lyla.

at last but not least, my small weekend getaway to utah. my cousin annie and i went to this little luncheon lodge place while everyone else went sledding. we were just too cold to be outside!
