dinner party dreaming

As I have been starting to think about and plan my annual Christmas dinner party, I realized I still haven't posted pictures from my summer one!
So here they are, just a little late...

Happy Nintendo Day!

Today it is Nintendo's 25th Birthday!
I'm not really a big fan of video games but the original Super Mario is one of the only video games I actually like to play.  
On this Nintendo Birthday, I happened to find a website that has all the greatest Nintendo games online for free!
Probably not the best thing to come across when I have 3 exams tomorrow....

Anyway if you want to have some old school fun, click the link!

The Morning Benders - Excuses

I am currently addicted to this song and when I went to find the video so I could share the song, the video I discovered made me become even more in love with it!

Clever

I came across this video a couple weeks ago and I just had to share it.
I just can't get over how funny it is.
Every time I watch it I laugh just as hard as I did when I watched it for the first time.



Clever huh?

winter photo shoot

I styled this shoot back in March.

Let me tell you it ended up being quite an adventurous day.

We had a lot of things go wrong...

1) even though it was the end of March it was FREEZING cold that day and super snowy, which to say the least is not pleasant for anyone.

2) The location arranged was in a junkyard and you had to pay a fee to shoot there but it turns out they only let you use part of the junk yard, the part that was uninteresting and hard to shoot in.   So we took a few illegal shots in the off limits area and then got kicked out.

3) there was nowhere for the models to change....my car became the change room.

4) since the original location didn't work out and the photographer didn't have a backup location we drove around Calgary for like 3 hours until we found another suitable place.

5) since it was so cold and everyone was pretty grumpy about it taking a lot longer than planned we  only used 2 of the 3 outfits.

Anyway it was a long day and I only ended up with 7 photos from the photographer....most of them don't even show off the outfits that well but well it was an experience I guess right?  

the first picture is taken on my iphone and the rest are by Jasmin Dosanj

movie time

Last week I went to the lovely old Uptown theatre here in Calgary and saw the documentary,

Exit Through The Gift Shop.

I thoroughly enjoyed it and found it quite funny actually.  I definitely recommend watching it if you can!

I can't wait to see it again!

Feel.Love.Thinking.Of.

 On March 27th, 2010 my very good friend Mai got married to her now husband Lance. 

They got married in the Salt Lake City Temple.

She looked absolutely beautiful. 

It was such a cute little wedding.

I am so extremely happy for them.

I caught the bouquet...
