Step Up 3D

I just saw Step Up 3 last night. And I have to admit I have been so excited to blog about this one! I LOVED IT!!!! Yep I loved Step Up 3 and I will say it again....I...LOVED IT! It all began when Step Up came out oh so many years ago. I love how the beautiful, proper, spoiled little Julliard student falls for a poor boy, from the hood, who was on probation, and working as a janitor at her school. haha! Sounds pretty ghetto but seriously its such a cute love story trust me.
After all who wouldnt want to dance with the janitor at your school when he looks like this :)
Ok, so anyways back to Step Up 3D. I wont talk much about the story line bc pretty much the whole thing was predictable and somewhat cheesy....but it was a good cheese like Pepper Jack or something...these are 2 of the main characters and the main love story. They were adoreable and had awesome chemistry. Loved it!

This is the rehearsal room where we learn the term "B-FAB" which stands for "Born From A Boombox" Which pretty much means your an amazing dancer and all you can think about is dance and how its your whole world.

This girl inspired me! She had THE most rockin body and abs ever!!! Not only do I want to tone my skinny scrawny body but now I want to take a hip hop class as well. Any takers??? BC Im dead serious I want to pop it and lock it with the rest of them :)

This is the dance scene where you couldnt stop but think this kid was a mini Michael. And do I want a red vinyl zipup hoody now with matching high tops???? YES! haha.

Her outfits were super cute throughout the entire movie. Very casual yet trendy. Loved her style! But honestly...Can they be any cuter??? I love his boombox shirt too!
I promise you after you watch this movie you will want to take a hip hop class with me so we can all be as cool as they are. I have always loved to dance. ALWAYS!!!! Music makes me so happy I cant help but move around and drop it like its hot. I love the term B-FAB too. Is that not the coolest compliment someone can give you!!! You are SO B-FAB! Music is a huge part of my life for sure! Do I think I was born from a boombox? Heck YES I do!!!!
The following clip is THE coolest robot dance I have seen!!!! So freakin cool! LOVE it!!!!

Im still Trippin!

This is my favorite dance scene from Step Up 3D. I was so stoked to find it on YouTube. LOVE it!!!! This guy is incredible!

Knight and Day


Dont you love it when you have a deep thought during a movie? Where it just gets you thinking and it sticks with you...even when you are driving home from the theater you cant stop thinking about that one thing that impressed you during that movie. Dont be confused in thinking I like deep thought movies bc that is definately NOT the case. In fact I like the opposite. Easy to follow movies, MUST HAVE comedy, romance is always nice, and I HATE anything sad. In "Knight and Day" with Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz (LOVE her!) they were having a discussion on an airplane and Cameron's character says something about how she wanted to drive down the coast all the way to the tip of South America and then she ended by saying "someday..." Tom quickly says, "Someday is a dangerous word." She looked confused and asked what he meant. He says, "When people say someday, they really mean never."


How sad is that!!! It totally got me thinking. I have so many places I want to go in life: Hawaii, Italy, Paris, African Safari, myan pyramids, Jurusalem, one of those remote islands with a bungalo over the water with a see through floor...things I want to do: Scuba Dive all around the world not just the Crator in Midway (since I am Scuba certified I really need to branch out :) Go back to school and get my masters so I can teach Sign Language at a University, sky dive, ride in a hellicopter and/or hot air balloon, see Usher LIVE in concert, see Wicked on Broadway...things I want to buy: a black baby grand player piano, a 4 door Jeep (steel grey, with a hard top that folds back, a DVD player for the kids, a sweet lift with pimped out tires) a big chunky bed frame for our King mattress that has been on our bedroom floor for 3 years, a hot tub, a cabin in Park City or somewhere with an ocean front view (either is fine :) be able to shop at Anthropologie, pay off all of my parents debt so my Dad can quit his job...
These are a lot of somedays! Does this mean none of these things will happen? Will only a handful be possible? Which ones are the most important to me? I want to make sure that my somedays ARENT nevers. What are some of your somedays that you want to make sure happen?

Eclipse!!!!

My Twilight background: I have never read any of the Twilight Saga books. I know...ludacris right? I hate to read! There are so many other things I enjoy more so I just get my fill from the movies I watch. Someday maybe I will change my thinking and pick up a book, but as for now Hollywood is keeping me well informed. Thank You!

First things first...Hellooooooooo Jacob!I absolutely LOVED this movie! Its so much fun going into a movie and having no clue what is going to happen. I loved that they gave some back story as to how the Cullen family became vampires. I loved the love triangle between Jacob, Bella, and Edward, I loved when Jacob had his shirt off (not bc I liked staring :) but bc I LOVED how the entire audience would scream and clap. It was hillarious!) I also loved the giggling that went on during any of the almost love scenes. Utah Movie theaters is where its at!

One of my fave characters is CHARLIE. This Dad is such a stud! He obviously adores his daughter but he is so awkward and funny about how he shows it. His one liners kill me! LOVE THEM!!!! 2 parts I thought were cool with Charlie: A boy went missing and his parents were still searching for him and it had been over a year. Bella asked, "shouldnt they just give up?" Charlie responded, "Probably...but I couldnt. If you were missing I would never give up". SOOOO CUTE!!!! The question going through my head...I wondered if I was reading the book would I have cried? Can books make you cry like movies do?
My other favorite Charlie line, after Jacob kisses Bella and Edward confronts him, all H is about to break loose. And what does Charlie do? "Wo wo wo...lets take this down a notch." haha!!! If only he realized what was really about to go down...Im still smiling thinking about it.

Now for the big decision...Jacob or Edward? From my perspective (from the movies) its obvious Jacob doesnt have a chance. Yes she loves him but the connection and love she has for Edward is WAY different. But look at Jacob...I feel so sorry for him :)
And Edward...FINALLY they can kiss now without it looking like they were going to pass out. Am I the only one who HATED that? In the first 2 movies everytime they kissed it was so awkward...I get that he had to control himself bc her blood smelled so good BUT HONESTLY...haha!

My favorite DEEP THOUGHT of the movie: Bella went to visit her Mom right before graduation bc it will be the last time she supposedly will see her. Her Mom was saying how much nicer Florida Universities would be compared to the cold bitterness in Alaska if she goes to school there. This totally got me thinking...she wouldnt be able to feel the warmth of the sun, get a sun tan, come visit her Mom, see Charlie...if Bella becomes a vampire she wont get any of that. She will just have to repeat HS over and over again. That would get old real fast.
But.......if she chooses Jacob they could grow old together, she wouldnt lose any of her friends and family, she would be warm all the time, and she could have brown babies. It just seems to be a better option :)

My absolute Favorite Scene of the movie was during the snow storm. When Bella was freezing, Edward couldnt warm her up, and Jacob had to cuddle with her the whole night. TOO FUNNY!!! I loved the conversation between Jacob and Edward it was hillarious!
Eclipse was such a great movie. LOVED IT! Since I dont read the books the first time I see it Im pretty lost, but after getting things explained to me, the second time I watch it is always my favorite. So I cant wait to go again!!! Whos with me?

My New Favorite Color

Back in January on American Idol, Randy Jackson wore a turquoise watch...look closely...its PIMP! Obviously I fell in love right away...with the watch that is :) LOVE IT!So this post is in dedication to this beautiful color that I am obsessed with. TURQUOISE. Look at that water. Here I go again daydreaming of going to a far off island. Well for now Im greatful I have the internet to indulge in my fantasy of going somewhere tropical. Someday...Back to my fave color...Last week I was at a baby shower and a girl had her toe nails painted an opaque turqouise color. I totally LOVED IT!!!! I want it so bad. And this is one I will have to indulge in. Afterall who doesnt have $7 lying around right? So cute!
Im not a purse girl....mainly bc they are pricey...not bc I dont think they are cute. Anyways, if I was a purse girl I would totally accessorize a cute casual outfit with this. (white tee and jeans with maybe some turqouise stud earrings) I am obsessed with this Nixon watch. LOVE IT! And again Im not a watch girl but for some reason Im SO attracted to them. Especially this one! Isaac if your reading this just click the picture and it will take you directly to the checkout ;) On the other hand I LOVE sunglasses! These are slightly out of my price range. But if I could I would own these Louis Vuittons in a heart beat! So great right!
All of these accessories should never be used together! Turquoise is a tough color bc perople think they need to be all matchy matchy with it. PLEASE adhere my advice on this one NEVER and I mean NEVER wear a turquoise dress with turquoise shoes and a turquoise necklace (or anything similar to that equation) bc lets be honest Im not sure if you could be my friend if you did. haha! But 1 per outfit would be ideal!



And this could be fun! iPhone covers could easily be like underwear. I think I might start a new trend. Switch it up everyday. Pink one day, white the next, and then turqouise. Love it!


Im sorry I just had to add one more! Look at this place. Only $1300 a night. Yikes! But if that picture doesnt make you want to accessorize with turqouise I dont know what will. haha!So are you as obsessed as I am with Turqouise now???

Somebody has a Sweet Tooth!

And that person would be me! I LOVE LOVE LOVE desserts. Pretty much any baked good is absolutely Divine in my book :) How many times have you been out on a date and wished there was a yummy bakery/dessert shop open that had options other than ice cream like Coldstone or Red Mango. Well search NO LONGER. I have found just the place. The Sweet Tooth Fairy. It is such a cute little boutiquish dessert bakery. They have cupcakes, cookies, CAKE BITES, and other random delicious treats. And the best part is they are open till 9pm during the week and 11 on weeknights. Awesome!!!These are my faves I highly reccommend!!! Oatmeal cookie with frosting, Coconut Cake bites, a Black and White cookie, and a lemon square. And they come in such a cute box. Presentation is everything right!

When you go there you will want 1 of everything. So here is how you do it. Cut everything into 4ths and share with your date night friends.

And last but definately not least! Here is another fave of mine for those late night cravings. Rhodes Cinnamon Rolls. And dont worry these babies dont need to rise like the other rhodes rolls...You just put them in the oven for 30 min frozen and voila! Look at that...I know...just head over to Costco. They are in the freezer isle right next to the Original Rhodes rolls.
Great now I need to go make some. haha! These food posts kill me. Love it!!!!
