Happy Friday the 13th!


Yay! Today was an awesome Friday the 13th! I love these because I was born on a Friday the 13th so they have always brought me luck. Tonight, Jason and our friend Farmer went to the Alamo Drafthouse to see....duh....Friday the 13th!

I was so excited all day because 1.) scary movies are my absolute favorite and I knew this Michael Bay remake wouldn't disappoint, 2.) I love the Alamo Drafthouse...it just has a really fun vibe to it so when you are seeing a movie like this on a day like this, I knew we were in for a treat.

Halfway during the movie, an employee dressed as the killer "Jason" started sneaking up on audience members. It was so hilarious to hear what comes out of people's mouths when they truly get scared. One guy let out a very girlish scream and then said a few words that I can not repeat....it was hilarious!

Afterwards, I was lucky enough to have my own personal encounter with the star of the movie...and the only person in the movie to remain alive...don't act like I gave the ending away. Everyone knows what happens in slasher movies!

Mama Mia - What a Great See-a!

Okay, so I really don't consider myself much of a musical fan. Yes, I really liked Chicago and Grease, but I did not see High School Musical, Rent, or Hairspray when all of those became so popular. Being in Paragould, Arkansas with my Grandma (love her to death), I had limited entertainment options. I was dying to see The Dark Knight, but really wanted to see that with Jason (plus I don't think my grandma would really appreciate the great work of art that I am sure it is).

So, we went to see Mama Mia. I was happy to see it, but was just kinda blah about it. Boy, was I wrong! It was AWESOME! I loved every single second of it; so much so that I went and bought the soundtrack and listened to it the entire 3 hour drive to the airport today. I hope to see it again so call me if you want to go. I am sure Jason won't be game.

Sex and the City



Last weekend when J was out of town I decided to treat myself to a movie. I love going to movies by myself for some reason. It makes me feel independent. So I grabbed my junior mints and got comfy. I have been dying to see Sex and the City as I was a big fan of the show and the fashion. I was definitley not disappointed. Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda, and Samantha were out in full force. The fashion was by far my favorite part, especially Carrie's. I also loved seeing Jennifer Hudson (a full figured woman) in the movie and looking fantastic. The movie made me both laugh out loud and cry. It was a little long (2.5 hours) so don't see it if you are tired or in a hurry. I could have stayed in thier longer and watched it all day. I also loved that there was a wedding in the movie. Everyone likes wedding movies!


Back in May, my mom bought this dress for me and it is my favorite dress ever. It's so cute, just looks like me and fits me better than any dress ever has before. This Cosabella dress was marketed as the "Sex and the City" dress and was supposed to be in the movie, worn by Carrie. I didn't see it, but love it just the same. Doesn't it look like something Carrie would wear?
