Hollywood..you know I love you more than what I should...

I love celebrities and anything Hollywood and movies. One of my favoites things to do is go to the Sundance Film festival and look for stars. The film festival is when Hollywood comes to us. (Thank you Bob) So over the weekend, I saw some stars and watched a hockey game. Good times.
The group is ready to star watch. Look out!


Here are some of my favorite pictures with the celebrities. We saw Dave Annabell (Justin from Brothers and Sisters) He was so nice. Then we have Jason Thompson, from General Hospital.


Both very friendly and very so cute. Then there was HOT Scott. (Amy's personal favorite)


We also saw Cube Gooding Jr. and DB Sweeny, however DB is on the not hot list, because he totally pivoned us with his jersey. (He dissed us, reference my sisters use because we totally got pivoned by Jeremy Pivon at a restaurant. We had to wait 30 min for a table while Pivon, walked right in. So we got slided for Jeremy Pivon--hence we got Pivoned. )





We had a great day. Can't wait for next year. (I am in the process of purchasing a new lens for my camera, one that will zoom in on the celebrities. ) I love it. Yeah Hollywood......

Haircut

I totally cut my hair. I was in the mood for something different. I like the messy look. (it's harder then you think to take a picture of yourself--I did the best I could)

Highlight of my Christmas break

Christmas=loved it
Not having to work=even better
Catching up with old roommates=Priceless




Over the Christmas break, I was able to have lunch with two roommates from college, Sarah and Veronica. We lived in Old Farm and we had the best time. I love these girls. Whenever I think of college the girls from X-2 always come to mind. Thanks for being such great friends. People come into your lives at certain times and I feel so blessed to have you both in my life. I love that we have been able to keep in touch. I admire you both so much. I hope we don't have to wait another 6 years to get together.

Love, love--

x-2 has got you

Painting

Over the Christmas break, I decided to paint my kitchen. My roommate helped me and we painted it RED. I love it. It adds so much. We did it on New Year's Eve. I figured I was going to be up until midnight anyway, might as well do a project. Lisa came over and painted a small section, too.


Getting started. First I had to tape everything. I hate this part. It's so hard to get everything even. I think I did ok.




There is no turning back now. Each coat went faster and faster. It really was not too bad. (4 1/2 coats. )


This after the first coat. I was concerened about the stripes, but after a few more coats, they went away.



And the finished product.

The light makes it look light, but it's dark and totally even. I think it adds so much to my house. Now, I'm ready to paint my room, my living room, the list keeps going.

Christmas 2008-Tis the season

I love Christmas. I sad to see it go. I had a great vacation and Christmas.
Christmas Eve we always make omelettes. We have been doing this since we were little. This tradition is what Grandma and Grandpa Mills started. We love it. We order what we want and Grandpa would cook it up for us. Then Dad started doing it. This year, Lisa was the cook. Jeff and Jamie eating their omelettes. They got in on Christmas Eve after a delayed flight and lost luggage. Good times.
Then we frosted sugar cookies. These were so good, if I do say so myself.
Christmas Day. We opened presents and then had waffles with berries and cream and sausage. I think it's safe to say that Santa made his appearance. Thanks for everything. Lately on Christmas day we have been going to the movies. This year we saw The Curious Case of Bejamin Buttons. It was a good show, long and sad, but good and well Brad Pitt looks great in it. (the middle part, when he is not old)



We also saw Marley and Me, (cute show about life and family)the Valkerie, (interesting) and Four Christmases--( I laughed so hard)


Getting to the movies this year was a bit difficult, what with the White Christmas that we had. We had to dig out our cars thanks to the mound of snow the plows left behind. It's a good thing we have great neighbors.

I'm always sad to see Christmas go. I love the build up. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and I am looking forward to seeing pictures on your blogs.
