Reading List

I love shopping for books. It is probably one of my favorite things. Thanks to some wonderful suggestions from friends via Twitter, I bought these four books from Amazon. They delivered to my apartment today, and I can't wait to dive in.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

One Day

The Hunger Games

Larry Crowne

I saw the movie, Larry Crowne, on Friday with my mother, my grandmother, and my grandmother's two sisters. I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. It tells the story of a retired Navy officer, Larry Crowne, who gets fired from his job at UMart (think Walmart) because he hit his peak at the company since he never went to college. Larry then decides to go to college to finally get his degree. While there, he befriends a group in a motor scooter gang who helps to reinvent him. In doing this, Larry gains the confidence to get his life back together. Oh and he falls in love with Julia Roberts, his speech professor, in the course of it all.

This movie was so cute. You'll leave the theater feeling happy. It reminded me why I love Tom Hanks so much! I'm kind of feeling a Tom Hanks marathon now...

Wedding Season

The past 4 weeks of my life have been ruled by weddings. Wedding Weekend #1: Brittany and Andy's wedding...(pic is actually from one of Brit's wedding showers that was Breakfast at Tiffany's themed).

Wedding Weekend #2: Mary E's bachelorette party.

Wedding Weekend #3: Mary E and Blake's wedding.

Wedding Weekend #4: My two favorites lovers from Houston came to the DFW for Beech's wedding.

I love me some weddings. There is nothing better than a huge fabulous party with lots of crazy dancing, incredible food, and unbeatable friends; however, I found myself wishing during these past 4 weekends that people would spread these things out! I was exhausted. I was so looking forward to my first no-plans weekend in a month, and what did I decide to do with all of this free time? Let me tell you. I went with Erin and Leah to see none other than the greatest 70's cover band in the world, Le Freak. Think of every single song that you typically dance to at weddings, and now picture 4 guys dressed in spandex/sequined bodysuits and afros singing and dancing to these songs on stage.

Maybe I wasn't quite as tired of weddings as I thought... As soon as I learned that Le Freak was in town I was ready to hop back on the train and shake my groove thang once more. Peace out.
