I love Halloween because I will take any excuse to dress up and party! My costume for this year is almost complete, just working out the last little details. I will give you a hint, I used a whole lotta yarn in my creation. This year it was half bought, half home made, but even the store bought items have been altered to my liking :)<br />
<br />
To show you how much me and Matt get in the spirit this time of year, I thought I would take a little walk down memory lane of Halloween's past costumes. Enjoy :)<br />

7am (sometimes 7:15..depending on my morning and my 45 minute commute)- get to work. The next 9+ Hours I will be plugging away<br />
9am- 2 cups down of office coffee...is it Friday yet?!<br />
1pm- lunch, either something thrown in a bag from home, or a walk through the Office parking lot to Baja Fresh, or if I am feeling fancy, The Stand.<br />
1:30-4pm- woooorrrkkk blah...is it Friday yet?!<br />
4pm- drive home. And by the time I get there, if I am feeling up to it, will take some of these for an outfit post...<br />

4 miles later, a quick shower and blowdry and these Twinkle Toes of mine are off to a glass of wine.<br />
My days are blending together and my life is starting to resemble the Sugarland song Something More...<br />
"There's gotta be something more<br />
Gotta be more than this<br />
I need a little less hard time<br />
I need a little more bliss<br />
I'm gonna take my chances<br />
Taking a chance I might<br />
Find what I'm looking for<br />
There's gotta be something more"<br />
<br />
My mind is always wandering off thinking of what I want to do in this next stage of my life..the question on my mind constantly is what do I want to be when I grow Up? ;)<br />
<br />
Anyone else planning a different adventure in life?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript">

I am very much looking forward to the 80's we will get this weekend.<br />
<br />
That's really all I've got for the moment. <a href="http://greatexpectations-kyna.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-transparent-are-you.html">Kyna</a> said it best, how whenever you look around you, it's so easy to feel everyone is perfect, with nothing but good things to say and feel, but we all have our flaws. Some of which for me have left me drawing a blank, and not able to get much out. My mind has been so consumed with work, and planning upcoming events that I haven't stopped and enjoyed what's going on in front of me. I have been focusing on everything I don't have, and wishing I could walk in other peoples shoes. But really, why would I want that...I've got some killer shoes (so to speak)<br />

Yesterday was a bitter sweet day for me, when we found Bruce's home.<br />
It all started when we made plans to pick up a 150 gallon tank from one of our friends. My brother said he would be happy to have Bruce stay with him, so we were working to get the whole set up to make him a Turtle Palace aquarium. We did a little more research on all the equipment that he would require, and we found ourselves a little over our heads, and short on time since we had him in a 56 gallon storage tub with bricks for him to bask on, when ideally a pond is where he really belonged. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjntVFyJnXwMSwH5PaHnFX9VTidJUhoPBMsu7jphimzWxHOZObFGk2zNaaEWnk3u4ylhiMt3XWewgixmFnlCYzomEgUJdw4gAvmJXRp45BvZJysg20K4yz8wEpuXNRSbBIRdQVaF_btvr0/s1600/Bruce1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"><img border="0" height="226" width="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjntVFyJnXwMSwH5PaHnFX9VTidJUhoPBMsu7jphimzWxHOZObFGk2zNaaEWnk3u4ylhiMt3XWewgixmFnlCYzomEgUJdw4gAvmJXRp45BvZJysg20K4yz8wEpuXNRSbBIRdQVaF_btvr0/s400/Bruce1.jpg" /></a></div><br />
So my next thought (it broke my heart) was to search for a local Turtle rescue, i just couldn't bare to take him to the pet store. At this point I was so attached, and all I wanted was for him to be healthy and have a safe home.<br />
During our search, Matt's mom called and told us to go to Google earth to see a sky view of our neighborhood, and what do you know there was a HUGE pond just down the street, that the green belt behind our house led to. This HAD to be Bruce's home. This pond was on someone's property, so we found our way into their gated community (following a car in, so slick haha) and we made our way to their gated driveway. I wonder what they were thinking when Matt called their intercom saying " I think I have a turtle from your pond". The gates opened after a brief conversation of turtle talk, and we were greeted at the bottom of the longest driveway with the residents on their golf cart, drink in hand, all smiles and waving. They were the sweetest! we talked about how they rescue turtles and they have over 20 in their Pond (that is as big as over 4 huge pools put together!) The pond was complete with lilly pads, rocks to bask on, and cat fish. THIS was Turtle paradise! We found the route that Bruce must have escaped from, and they have made plans to cover it with chicken wire to prevent any future tricky turtle escapades.<br />
So it was time to say goodbye...with tears in my eyes I set Bruce back on his way. <br />

It felt good knowing he was back at home. We watched him swim across the pond and he looked so happy! But I don't think I will ever forget this face <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCGKH6WgeTaD7yz96APMTvcnluT1WU28RuchuZcLYLoIQnNczcqim6LxLU0IyN3ZDV4Q9wONNLsL20057i85cLhRTz_y9OSYr_lFbwJNAcWaTTueHwEIeWKqDs4ZIQnwQMzt8Bjm8urNY/s1600/Bruce3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"><img border="0" height="400" width="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCGKH6WgeTaD7yz96APMTvcnluT1WU28RuchuZcLYLoIQnNczcqim6LxLU0IyN3ZDV4Q9wONNLsL20057i85cLhRTz_y9OSYr_lFbwJNAcWaTTueHwEIeWKqDs4ZIQnwQMzt8Bjm8urNY/s400/Bruce3.jpg" /></a></div>I can't really explain the feeling I have when I think of what could have happened if he never made it to our yard. My Aunt was the one who found him roaming through our garden, and if it weren't for her, he would have gone unnoticed. We were so happy to take care of him, and went to great lengths to make sure he got back to where he came from. I am grateful we had the chance to save him, and the weight on my heart as been lifted now that he's home. The owners offered to let us come by whenever we wanted to visit, and I will most likey be taking them up on their offer :)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript">

Growing up I never really had a clear picture, or even a dream for that matter of what I would do, or where I would go in life. School was such a painful experience, I just could never grasp things the way everyone else could. That on top of daily awkwardness, just led to disaster for me. Getting caught up in the wrong crowd, easily influenced by everyone's opinions. It's safe to say I spent a majority of childhood and teens, and then some trying to figure out who I was. I just sort of floated along, trying to fit in, while trying not to at the same time.<br />
I don't remember the exact moment, or what it took to make me realize that it was up to me to take charge, and make my own decisions. It was from that point on that I knew what I needed to do, and that was to work hard, and stay focused on my future.<br />
I have had a job since I was 16, (sometimes 2 at a time),and I struggle every day to reach my goals that I have FINALLY made for myself. I know it is not going to be easy, and I've never accepted the easy ride, but I am proud of where I am in life. Not a day goes by that I don't think about where I came from, and what that has done to help me where I am going.<br />
I am so grateful for the people and experiences I have had in my life, and I can't wait for all the things to come :)<br />

I had a nice weekend with the fiance's family that stayed with us. Got to do a Friday Ikea run (not fun in L.A. traffic during rush hour), but well worth scouring through fun kitchens and nick nacks. In between entertaining, and the normal weekend house chores, we spent most of our time watching our new backyard guest roam through the garden. Meet Bruce:<br />

Named after Bruce Jenner, he's very fast. Somehow he ended up in our yard, and we are glad to have him, I am even petitioning to have a pond built just for him! (or her, not really sure). Anyone have special Turle care tips, I would greatly appreciate it :)<br />

After endless hours searching and countless amounts of money. I have finally found the perfect.....wait for it....<br />
<br />

Yes, the solution to all those underwires that have stabbed me endlessly, and all the slipping and tugging to stay up, and mis-shapen effect some give. Victoria's Secret has won me over once again!<br />
<br />
I live in my strapless, and now I can do it pain free!<br />

We had so much fun with the cousins and their kids. It's always so nice to be around family, especially when you get to see them all of every couple years. We had a Western themed BBQ, and of course I dressed the part :)<br />

Meet my Friend Lindsay. It's only fair to tell you how we met....Lindsay, don't be mad ;)<br />

But the truth is, this is the night we met! and you know how? Well, we had something in common, and it was that were were both Blonde!! hahaha, I will never forget that!<br />
This was over 6 years ago, and who would have thought years later we would run into eachother again at the salon we both worked at, and the picture resurfaced and we pieced the puzzle together and realized we had met long before!<br />
We both moved along from the Salon world to Corporate world together, and it made that crazy transition so much easier to go through, having her there. She is so sweet and genuine, and will be honest with you no matter what. She is an amazing listener and always gives the best advice.<br />
One day after work, Lindsay had some surprising news to share...she was pregnant! It was all so exciting and for lack of a better word, we were speechless! Soon after Lindsay and Chris got married, their cute little family of 3 came about. She did the best thing she could, and has taken to being the best Momma to beautiful Landyn! <br />
Lindsay is one of the reasons I started my blog. I read <a href="http://lindsay-thelees.blogspot.com/">Lee La La</a> everyday, and I am so inspired by how Smart and Creative she is. I hope to one day be a fraction of the amazing mom and person she is!<br />
So Lindsay, this is to show you how much I appreciate you as my friend, we may look like sisters, but I also feel like one! (yes, we did have the same outfit on today, haha). I feel so lucky we get to see eachother go through these exciting chapters in life!<br />

Why does it take forever for a vacation to get here, but be over in a blink of an eye?<br />
This past week off was completely amazing. I spent every moment in full vacation mode, and had the best time with my family. Since I will be busy for the next year planning the wedding, I was glad to have some time to relax. Here is some of what I got to enjoy<br />

Well, what if you are too busy trying to arrange them, that you completely overlook the smell? It seems like we are always trying to make things better, while ignoring the fact that they may just be good the way they are...says the busy girl who has not stopped and smelled a rose in quite some time. <br />
So I put together a little treat. It may not be roses, but a Spicy hot fix will do ;)<br />

1. To put my thoughts into words and pictures<br />
2. To connect with other bloggers that share the same interests<br />
3. To give advice <br />
4. To get advice<br />
5. To have somewhere to showcase all the crafty ideas I think about all day (when my mind wonders out of the cubicle)<br />
6. To tell Secrets<br />
7. To make people laugh<br />
8. To learn about myself by stepping out of my comfort zone<br />

I love shoes!<br />
These are Simply Vera by Vera Wang for Kohls<br />
<br />
I spent most of the day in a cardigan, but braved a dress none the less ;)<br />

I will be up bright and early tomorrow to lay out the goods for the garage sale. The feeling of selling worn treasured items makes my stomach turn, why am I so attached to something that someone will try to offer me 50 cents for? If they only knew the story behind that tattered tee, will they get as much out of it as I did?<br />
<br />
It's hard to let things go<br />
The past is the past, and what we are left with is a memory. <br />
<br />
Cheers to new beginnings, and life lessons....<br />

I was going to need to trade my sandals in for something a little warmer. <br />

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Boots in the middle of July?! I couldn't believe it either. Since I spend the majority of the daylight in an office (that they keep well below 70 degrees!!), between the excel spreadsheets, reports and meetings, I am daydreaming of being on the beach or a lake with the sun beaming down on me. To be a kid enjoying summer break.</div>since I was a 90's kid, maybe you can guess who inspired my outfit today...<br />

It's not that I haven't thought about them, I have been busy moving, unpacking, settling, and working my butt off...so to speak. Enough with the excuses, I am back on the road, running that is. With life geting back on track, I am starting something new. Here's to my blog. Stay tuned to see where else these twinkle toes will take me...<br />
