P.S.- Y'all only have 27 days until Christmas which means 25 days of shopping left!!! So get on it people!!!

P.P.S- Just incase any of you were wondering I would like a baby bunny or a baby duck. However, I have a huge phobia of birds so only a baby duck. DO NOT try to cure this fear by bringing me in any close proximity of any other flying bird type animal.

Edit

Yesterday my lover and I went horseback riding for my birthday! It was amazing! Here are some pics. They are mostly of me, because Andrew was taking them while he was riding.

This is where they keep the horses. It is also where my beau works. They have 5 horses that they keep in the barn Monique, Carlton, Marshmallow (mine), Faith(also mine), patches, and 5 others that just kind of roam around.

Me (on Marshmallow) and Andrew (on Carlton) before we set off to ride into the wilderness.

This is me riding Marshmallow down into the woods. Ahhh! So fun!

Me troting along in the field. That is what it is called, troting. Not galoping! That means they are flying through the field.

While we were riding, Andrew took me to this old caboose.

Me with Marshmallow. He is hunched over in this picture because he is tired. He is 22! But He is the one that I wanted because he is all white. Soooo pretty!

Me with Andrew's horse, Carlton. He is fricken HUGE!

This is me and my lover! He made this the BEST birthday ever!

me riding off into the sunset.

Wow! This weekend was amazing! We had homecoming! So much fun. Our group was amazing. A big thank you to Laura and Jordon's parents for hosting the majority of the the evening. It was absolutly unforgetable. Everyone looked beautiful. Laura's dress fit her to a T and looked stunning. I have never seen her look so georgeous (not that she isn't always beautiful). Annie had a bit of a crisis earlier in the day but it all worked out in the end and she looked fabulous as always. Jordo and Tay matched perfectly and looked like they stepped out of a magazine and Pam just looked awesome! It was an amazing group! Here is the night:

Here is my dress! I loved it! It was probably my 2nd favorite ever!

Andrew arrived and we took some cheesy pics!

A corsage for me!

I then proceded to attatch his matching boutineer!

Yes folks that's right; i said matching. And no it was not planned! I know, I'm saying!

Then everyone arriived and we took some faboo group pics!

The ever so popular "stair picture"

The girls! Doesn't everyone look beautiful?

The boys! So cute!

Hot! I know!

Annie and Jo (So pretty)

See what I am saying about the dresses!

Name that movie!

Me and my Tay

The Harmony Group

Wow!

Are you ready?

Then we all went in the limo (Yes that's right kids I said limo) to head to dinner

We took really pretty pics in the limo

Botox pose!

And Laura found a mint!

Afterwards we had the most amazing dinner at the M&S Grill. Jordon's dad is the head chef there so we recieved the star treatment. It was Scruptulessent! Ah! Amazing!

While waiting for our food we took some pics! Isn't he cute! I love him!

Brett was getting hungry!

So was I

I had been fasting in preparation for this moment of glorious food!

But then things started to arrive at the table!

And everyone was happy!

Except for Tay because he was missing his cherry!

Tay and Jo were a little peeved by all of the pics. No more paparazzi!

As a result Jordan got violent! Grrr!

The food was amazing and everyone was so stuffed. We had like five courses and like 7 items in each course! We were so stuffed! What we looked like after dinner! We gain a bagillion pounds!

All in all the evening was amazing. The people, the food, the dancing. The DJ kind of sucked but we worked with it. What an amazing night!

The end!

xoxo

So exciting day (Annie you know what I am talking about)! So things are finally falling into place with Arkansaw Bear. I am really excited. We have our first performance on wednesday! We get to do it for second graders! I am like uber excited. I love performing in front of little kids because they aren't "proper" with their reactions. They are always truthful. In my opinion it is the best audience one can get for a children's produection. PLUS now that Arkansaw Bear is going on the road we get to start working a bit on Proof! I am so stoked. Not to mention the cast is made up of like three of my most fav people in rep! It is going to be sooooooo much fun!

Homecoming is this weekend and I can not wait! Our group is amazing and it will be so much fun. The next morning Andrew and I have to get up really really early though to help my ma move her new office. It will be tiring but fun.

PS! Andrew turned 19 yesterday. It was tres fun. He was out of town all weekend and didn't get back until like 6:00 last night. I went over and had dinner with his family and then they had FABULOUS ice cream cake. I don't normally like ice cream or cake for that matter; well I like cake more than ice cream because ice cream is the kind of thing that always sounds good but after you eat it you want to hurl. I actually get some pleasure out of eating cake though. Anyway that was totally off topic. I really like the middle layer of the ice cream cake because it tastes like a really good cookie. I love cookies. Anyway after the cake Andrew and I just hung out for a while. I love him so much! So yeah! Happy Birthday lova!

Here are some pics from rehearsal today. Everything was starting to come together today so I feel really motivated to get things going.

Eliza {Happy Birthday} and Jon

Jon looks quite perplexed

The worlds greatest dancing bear (Landon) and Death (Paddy)

Landon is stretching me (Little bear) in preparation for my dancing education

I like this picture alot. I never realized how big Landon is compared to me. I heart him!

Have a happy happy day!

Lots o' love

OH MY STARS! I am so stoked for this weekend. I have spent the past few hours preparing for the biggest Gilmore Girl marathon in the history of the world! Bah! It is going to be Sarah Cline, Frieds, and Me from Thursday night to Sunday night! Can you say amazing! I mean we are the hard core Gilmore Girls fans.

Anywho, my ma and I went shopping today to buy some of the necessary candies that will be needed through the course of the weekend. And guess what! We found an entire jewelry set made entirely of candy! I know! Plus chocolate, twizlers, starbursts, those really nasty marshmallow chicks that are colored, candy corn, Carmello bars, M&M’s, and FUN DIP! We have also come up with a very efficient food ordering process to fulfill our eating needs over the weekend. On Thursday we plan to order pizza (how many has yet to be determined), Chinese food, and Indian food (just to stay in the true Gilmore spirit). On Friday we plan to eat the left-over’s as well as pancakes and lots of coffee. On Saturday we will proceed to order more food, as the food from Thursday will be all gone by then. We will order more pizza, but this time we plan on ordering Thai food (I know, we are branching out a bit) as well as some traditional diner food to keep Luke’s alive and well in the house. On Sunday we will eat left-over’s once more and finish up our marathon. “But Alex” you may say, “that is clearly not enough food to match with the infamous Gilmores!” Well reader you are correct! That is why we will have…are you ready for it?...Our very own…full sized…Ice cream sundae station!!! Yes that is right kids; we are turning my kitchen island into a sundae stand. Complete with all of the works, nuts, pineapple, strawberry, chocolate, raspberry, whipped cream, and cherries! You name it we will have it. Now I am not really an ice-cream person, but for this I will make an exception. I have also come up with the brilliant idea of making smores over the fireplace! Brilliant, I know!

Now since this is a humongo bash we have a few simple, yet important rules. They are as follows:

1. No squishing around. (once the movie has started there will be no moving. This serves as a distraction, and will not be tolerated)

2. All food must be within arms reach of someone

3. No talking during the movie

4. No phone calls or texting of any sort will be allowed it is rude and distracting to the viewers.

5. No fast forwarding, pausing, or rewinding; this ruins the flow of the movie. (if you feel the need to go to the restroom you may leave during and appropriate time and will have to miss the part you were gone for. You may not ask what happened when you return. Questions refer to rule #3)

6. The last and most important rule is that there will be no skipping over episodes (no matter how many times you have seen them)

I can’t wait! Anyway I have to head to bed and get my Z’s! Lots o love!

XOXO

Matteo

Bah! What a fabulous weekend! As most of you know Schaeff, Landon, Alex, and I left for The WIlliam Inge Festival on Friday. We left towards the end of 6th hour and rode in a BV van. The ride was entertaining to say the least. Those boys are the funniest people ever! We had a blast! However, on our way we saw this guy driving a truck right in front of us fall asleep at the wheel and hit a sign; we followed him to the gas station to see if he was ok but he just gave us a dirty look and drove off. Oh well, atleast we got a kick ass hat while we were there haha go Giffindor! Anywho the actual festival was exhausting! We literally rehearsed ALL DAY! I got cast a the lead youngin in Alex's show and it was awesome. Alex did faboo in his show and landon is of course amazing. I was so proud of Schaeff for his play. He is so talented and is going to go so far in this world. To make a long story short we all had a blast and I want to do it again. My ma is shooing me off the computer right now but there is one more thing. They were getting ready for their celebration of Neewollah while we were there! Exciting! Yay! Got to go! Loves!

What a fantabulous weekend! My ma went to Aspen this weekend for the film festival so my brother and I have had the house entirely to ourselves. Now since my brother has to social climaxity of a hermit; I basically got to play all day and all night! Friday was so much fun. Right after school Brett and I went to Starbuck's and then picked out the puppy that I plan on purchasing. Later that night Chris, Landon, and I had our date, and went to see The Last Five Years; I love that show. I was so stoked. After the show we all went to pick up our cars and head to Scheaffer's for the Copenhagen cast party. I myself had to take a bit of a detour and pick up miss Wad. I got to Annie's fine, but when it came to Schaefe's house it wasn't so easy. Annie and I literally spent a half an hour trying to get from 159th to 151st. Amidst this lovely detour I ran COMPLETELY out of gas. Yes, that's right kids. The light would not stop blinking and beeping at me. Which I have to say is quite annoying and not to mention rude. I mean what would happen if you were on the phone with somone who just had a relative die, and there is this constant beeping in the backround. Not cool! Eventually we made it to the cast party. It was tres fun. We all hung out and played this uestion game. After the party Wad, Frieds, Brett, and Chris came over to my house and we all played...are you ready for it?......... SCRUPPLES! Ah what a quality game. Defecation?Yes?No?Depends? Anywho we all hung out and watched the Butterfly Effect until 4 in the morning. The next morning Lauren had to leave early so Annie and I made pancakes. They were quite good if I do say so myself. Then I headed to Sam's house and met up with Lindsey, Alex, Sam, and Charlie, and we all headed to the lake. While we were doing the boarding while you are being pulled by a boat thingy it started pouring down rain! It was so much fun! After the lake we all headed back to Sam's to play in the pool and in the hot tub, and yes it was still raining. Sam, Ashley, Lindsey, and I then went to Hoolihans (sp?). I came home and worked on the SL for a bit and watched a few episodes of What Not To Wear. Andrew showed up at my house and we played for a couple of hours, and then Alex, Sam, and Danielle Showed up and we all watched Dodgeball and ate pizza, after a scary scene involving a baby and a boob everyone headed out. Andrew stayed till about 2 and then I went to bed! Phew! What an event filled weekend. I have to head out because I am going to see Proof! Yay! I am uber excited!

Hugs and Kisses

So, I know it is like way early to be talking about this, but I am so stoked about homecoming! We are going with the most awesome group of people and have the most amazing plans!Plus My dress is absolutly faboo. I am having a tough time finding Jewlry to match. AND SHOES! Who knew it would be so hard to find a strappy chocolate brown stiletto. If anyone knows where I can find a pair PLEASE CONTACT ME IMMEDIATLY!

I am really excited for tomorrow because Andrew and I are going to see the Corps Bride and it is going to be amazing. I am little upset because he doesn't want to dress up like corps' , but oh well, you win some; you lose some. We are going to get dinner and then head to the movie. And new fabulous exciting thing of the day is that I got my winter coat. It is so vintage looking, and I absolutly love it. I got it at Anthroplogy on the plaza. Also the lady from my favorite vintage boutique called me today saying that she got a new dress in, and it is AMAZING. My ma and I went after school to pick it up. It is very Audrey Hephburn.

Anyway, ballet was great today, and I officially loathe the Scarlet Letter.

XOXO

So today was tre faboo! After school I went home and worked on homework for a couple of hours. Then I went to my voice lesson which, if I do say so myself, went quite well. After that I came home and my ma and I watched Extreme Home Makeover from last night. It was a really good one (I have it T-Voed if anyone would like to watch.) Then Andrew called and invited me over. We ate mashed potatoes and string beans with baby forks and drank from sippy cups. His parents went to look at a house today which sounds SO pretty! It’s like 40 acres and has HUGE hills and stuff. Andrew is going to look at it tomorrow, but from what I hear it sounds promising. Anywho, I edited his paper and then we just hung out for a bit before I had to leave. I love him so much! All in all it was a great day! Before I go one more ~~HUGE~~ thing…

Drum roll please…

Tomorrow…

The brand new season of…

Gilmore Girls!!!

Season Premiere | tuesday | 8/7c trailer

Picking up on the same night as last season's finale, Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Luke (Scott Patterson) begin making plans for their future, but Luke (Scott Patterson) is embarrassed when word spreads that Lorelai was the one who proposed. Still hurt over Rory's (Alexis Bledel) decision to drop out of Yale and move in with Emily (Kelly Bishop) and Richard (Edward Herrmann), Lorelai tells her parents that they can take care of Rory from now on. Richard hires an old friend and respected attorney (guest star Robert Foxworth, "Falcon Crest") to help Rory get an easy sentence for stealing the yacht, but the judge gives Rory 300 hours of community service. Logan (Matt Czuchry) throws Rory a "felon" party.
