Friday Lovin' Music

I had no idea I was such a Beyonce' fan but I can't get over how fun this video is:


It took watching it numerous times to realize that it's part of a really great initiative.


I just saw Feist on Wednesday night and she was amazing!!!  I was also blown away by the girls singing along with her- their vocals are crazy good.


I keep forgetting to bring non Zumba music with me in the car so I've been listening to the radio more often and this song plays non stop.  I can see it getting on my nerves soon but right now I think it's sweet!


I just can't get over how amazing this song is, how incredible her voice is and how powerful it feels.  It's just so personal and I feel kind of like a voyeur for listening to it.  Here is an amazing live version too.

Have a wonderful weekend!!!  Tonight we're going out for Sushi, edamame, and red bean ice cream!

Friday Lovin'

Chelsey from The Paper Mama is doing 50 DIY Days of Christmas.  I can't believe I am already this excited for the Holidays this year.

I actually made one for Jonah after I saw this living room fort.

Chocolate toy cars.

I never realized how long 2 minutes can be.

Awesome Halloween wreath.

First I have to learn to dance like this then I can teach my kid.

I don't know what happened to me.  For years I would balk at music on the radio and listen to Radiohead, Bjork, Ryan Adams, Feist (to name a few) and now I am in love with this guy and this song... and maybe even this song (mostly the spanish parts).  What is happening here?!!!

Don't forget to enter the Shabby Apple giveaway going on now!!!

I can't believe this was just a little over a month ago and tomorrow we might be getting snow.

Have a great weekend!  I still have to find something to wear to a Halloween party, but my prop box is coming in handy.  

something new

I can never go wrong with this station on Pandora.

I can't wait to get this book. (link via Mighty Girl)

This recipe is so so good.  I added pepper to the squash and some honey for the butter.

Mandy wrote up a week's worth of comfort food recipes.  I definitely want to eat this and this too.  Maybe I'll actually make them one day.

I just love Feist  Jodi and I are going to see her live in less than 2 weeks (it's been over 3 years since the last time we saw her perform).

A S'mores bar!!! Check it out here and here.

I've mentioned my love for Zumba(tm) a few times.  I've been so busy lately putting together routines, finding inspiration everywhere- I even have a Zumba inspiration board on pinterest.  One thing is for sure, this Beyonce song is going on the playlist.

I definitely hope to get some more blog posts up next week.  I have a whole weekend home and I'm looking forward to getting stuff done (bedroom cleaned up, photos edited, photos posted, convincing my sister in law to come to a Zumba class with me).  Tonight, though, is date night but since I have a lot I want to save up for it's just a night in with some food shopping, Joel cooking me something delicious (I hope), ice cream and a movie from Redbox... or Grey's Anatomy on netflix.

Have a great weekend!!!
