Holiday Marathon #2: Decorating

I love decorating for Thanksgiving, I like having random turkeys around the house. It all started with the hand print turkeys as a kindergartner. So I was poking around the Pier 1 sight and found a few cute things I would love to have around my house. And you can find them all on my luvocracy page Here . Everything is ordered by the week I post it in the month.

Lets start by talking about this adorable turkey table runner. Its so darn cute! The colors are fantastic and festive, but what kills me is the feet! Oh my gosh! My cat would have a field day with this one too.

And then there is this funky guy! I can honestly say I have never seen a turkey like him. I want him in front of my fireplace now! The colors are fun, I mean look at his face! He is such a cool little guy!

I love this little candle, I mean owls are so fun to decorate with. And who doesn't love candles around to flicker in the background of your evening?

To go along with that funky turkey, an adorable leaf owl! I would keep this guy up all year myself. I think its the small part of me that wanted a pet owl after reading Harry Potter the first time.

And finally a hedgehog! I adore hedgehogs! I have a few all around my house, my favorite being a stuffed animal that sits on top of my computer printer. This guy is really cute though, and would probably stay on my porch all year round.

I wish I could get all of these adorable things for my Thanksgiving decorating, but I may be able to splurge on a few of them.

Movies Madness!

As mentioned briefly in yesterdays post on tomorrow I will be going to see Thor: The Dark World with my friend Adam. I am a huge fan of the Marvel movie revamp that has been taking place over the last few years and Thor is one of my favorites. 

If this isn't enough to make you want to see this movie I ask you to watch it again because the cast is amazing! 

My Netflix movie is going to be The Host. I have never read the book but I hear it is better than Twilight so I think I will watch the movie first before wasting time to read it. (I apologize to any Twilight fans, I just couldn't stand the books or movies.) 

Who knows what else I might watch this weekend. Netflix is full of things to watch.

What I am Watching!

Alright so lets talk TV this week...

Monday: The Voice is finally in the live shows! Both teams were really strong but my favorite to win is Cole Vosbury now on team Blake. He is so talented and has never picked a wrong song in my book. I hate the first battle because they can't choose the song. But he has just impressed me. Here is his performance from Monday.

Tuesday: I spent Tuesday night constantly switching back and forth between shows. The majority of the shows I am loving seem to be on Tuesday. Agents of Shield on ABC and the Biggest Looser on NBC at 8pm. Supernatural and The Voice results at 9! Why do you have to do that to me? Thank god I can go back and fully watch everything later. Thanks internet!


Things I am looking forward to:



White Collar tomorrow! I just love White Collar, it never lets me down. And if you didn't catch it over the summer Graceland is also amazing. Same network, same creator, its just amazing drama.

Friday is usually a going out night for me. I think I am going to Thor...
Saturday is a Netflix night with mom so who knows what we will watch...
And FOOTBALL SUNDAY!

So look for this post again next week to see what I watched and what I am looking forward to again. And please share any of your favorites and I will check them out!

Organix Hair Care

I have been wanting to try the Organix line for awhile, so when I was in need of some shampoo and conditioner I decided to pick up these three.

The Hydrating Macadamia Oil Shampoo did scare me a bit at first. I have oily hair that has to be washed every day with other products. With this shampoo I could skip a day and I still didn't look to oily! I am so in love with it I almost cried when I was done with the bottle.

The Conditioner (also the Macadamia Oil), my hair has never felt so soft. Besides the amazing feeling of my hair it looked amazing too! I barley had to style my hair to get my desired look!

And finally the hydrating mask used once a week is an amazing addition. I love a good conditioning mask and I was so excited by the results.

Overall I am in love with the macadamia oil line, they work amazingly and smell delicious!  

My Diet: Weigh In #1

I need to be a bit more healthy, I am above where my BMI number should be. So here is me becoming accountable for my diet by blogging. I will check in every week with a new diet change I am making. Changing everything so quickly will not work, so slow changes to a healthier me!

So first the Weekly Weigh in.

Previous Weight: N/A

Current Weight: 164.4 lbs

What will I be changing this week?

Water! Well... I will be drinking more water. No longer will I be drinking soda, juice, etc. Water and milk, that is it. I know it isn't so glamorous but it is the first change in a long list of changes.

My Current favorite bottled water is Activate, but I am not saying I buy loads of bottled water, my Brita pitcher is well loved and always in need of refilling. But when I am at school it is a quick thing to grab on my way out the door. 

So lets see how I do this week!

Waking Up Married

(Summary from Goodreads)

Her first thought: "Who are you?"

It's the morning after her cousin's bachelorette party in Vegas and Megan Scott wakes up with the mother of all hangovers. Even worse, she's in a stranger's penthouse having woken up with something else as well - a funny, arrogant, sexy...husband!

Up until now, finding even a boyfriend had seemed impossible - been there, got the broken heart, sworn off men for good. Then a few martinis with Carter...no, Connor Reed and she's gone from first meet to marriage in one night!

Megan wants a lawyer. But Connor's shocking bombshell?

"I don't want a divorce."

I liked this book, it was sweet and every bit the story it claims to be. It was nothing memorable or anything I may read again, but it was a fun way to pass some time away instead of playing angry birds! It is everything a Harlequin Kiss book is meant to be! If you are looking for something fun to pass an afternoon away this is a great book for that!
