J'adore Dior et Galliano

Finally some colour for fall! I was so excited for Paris fashion week, only so I could see what Galliano would come up with for the Dior collection. And, not surprisingly, I LOVE it! The whole thing is very Valley of the Dolls inspired with the big hair and not a pair of pants in sight! Plus, I saw a little Crocodile Dundee worked in. The man is a genius! The colours are awesome and there were so many amazing details! (We need to wear that makeup out ladies!) The pictures can say it a million times better than i ever could...(watch out- pic obese!)

I can't wait to see his own collection! Ahhhaha can you tell Galliano gets me very excited?! I heart him!

Ice Princess

Sunday night was fairly uneventful. I was disappointed with the lack of variety and excitement on the red carpet of the Oscars. Aaron was over so we decided to do a photoshoot. I put some jewels on my face and lots of sparkles and dressed up in my best Ice Princess outfit! Aaron, the expert photographer, set up all his flashes and umbrellas to capture my icy demeanor.

Okay, not mean anymore...

Stuntwork

Yesterday at lunch, Aaron, Zac, Ben and I went outside to take some pictures! Aaron set up some of his flashes for good lighting and we were ready. We were showing off how strong and aerodynamic we are! I discovered that while my jumping skills are fantastic, my landing skills require quite a bit of work! ouch...

I am so strong that I can lift Aaron with one hand!

When he makes me mad, I pretend to go for a high five and then use my superpowers to throw him into the wall (he left a body imprint in the house).

Zac gets very angry at Aaron as well! He is so strong he can throw aaron over the house.

I am so happy when I fly!

Aaron does many tricks and flips.

Ben has some sweet vertical!

I let Aaron fall slowly. Even with doom approaching, he is in high spirits!

NYC or bust!

It's final...Anna, Eugenie and I are going to New York City!!! I'm SOOOO excited! I'm going to see Vicki too (I met her in Sweden- she just moved here from Australia to be a lawyer!)! We have a lot of plans to make so we can fit everything in! If anyone knows of something exceptional that we must see, let me know!

Weddings and Woodpeckers

Brownie and I were watching wedding shows on Women's Network today. Brownie says she can't wait to plan her wedding. She wants to have ice cream for dinner and gravy martinis for dessert. I told her she could do anything she wanted because it would be her wedding afterall. She has been trying some online dating but says she's going to stop that for awhile, and go back to more conventional methods- sniffing around.

In other news, our birdfeeders are going crazy! Today, there was a big red-bellied woodpecker hanging out. Joe informed me that this is what it was called and I was slightly confused because the woodpecker's head was red and not its belly. Joe explained to me that there was already a red-headed woodpecker, so they (whoever has the awesome job of naming new species- although I think some of the names could be a little more hip...) had to come up with another one.

Here are the 2 woodpeckers...

This is the Red-bellied guy that was on our tree...Since the one below does obviously have a more red head, why isn't this one called the red-mohawk or red-hat woodpecker or something...the whole red-bellied thing just makes no sense...

Anyway, they're both pretty awesome birds!

P.S. I am looking out the window and Brownie is standing under the tree watching all the birds. Her head is twitching all over the place because she's trying to watch them all at the same time! sooo cute!

Bath Time! (Who's bringing bubbles?!)

I'm not sure why, but lately I've been thinking about bathtubs and their coolness potential! I wanted to see what was out there and I found a bunch of fun ones! I think I reeeally want to be in the water right now. Kryll and I used to put our bathing suits on and hang out in the tub. We'd bring the TV in to the bathroom and watch movies and eat fun snacks! SO FUN!!!
