We walked by this house probably a hundred times while we were in Beynac. An elderly couple lived here and we’d see them eating breakfast on the porch and the old man tidying up his flower boxes in his pj’s. Next time I go back I’ll speak enough French to talk to them and find out their names.

If you’ve spoken to me in the last 24 hours or if you follow me on twitter you’ll know why I had to eat a cupcake for breakfast this morning. This picture is borrowed from the very talented Mathias because I ate mine before it even occured to me to take a picture of mine.

Have a happy weekend!

Yesterday I got to spend the afternoon at Hearst Castle with Krista and it was such a treat! I admire her so much for following her dreams and moving across the country. She’s brave and loves life… it’s sort of contagious!

I snapped this with my iPhone.

October is for visiting Utah and these crazy chicas. And Billie too. I plan on eating a lot of Cafe Rio and cuddling lots of babies and maybe apartment hunting?? It’s no fun living far away from so many of my favorite people.

I’ll visit more people but these three are about to (or have just had) babies so I’ve got dibs on them.

Naomi tweeted a great quote: “It doesn’t matter where you are, it matters who you’re with.” I’ll keep that in mind.

The saddest day is the day that you get released from Primary. I have no doubt it’s the right thing but it didn’t stop me from instantly bursting into full on tears the second I was told. I have the most wonderful, smart, funny, loving 5 year olds in my class. I can’t help but be a little heartbroken.

I ended up with a four day weekend this weekend. This is the best news ever. On Tuesday I’m meeting Krista at Hearst Castle and spending the day with her. I’m so excited.

I took this during a break in shooting The Monstrosity Movie this week. I have a weakness for magnolia blossoms.

Don’t you love carousels?

The filming for The Monstrosity Movie finished up this week. It was a blast.

ps – 8 more followers till I do a little giveaway for all of you pretty people.

Have a wonderful weekend! xo

Before I hiking up the bazillion stairs I watched this guy feed some hungry birdies. He didn’t just throw food for them, he’d call to them and they’d land on his hand to take the tiny pieces of bread. It was pretty awesome but my fingers weren’t fast enough to catch him in action.

Just a note on my last post about France – I forgot to mention how AWESOME Trisha was for the whole 10 hours we were driving around France. I probably would have had a tantrum or burst into tears or something if she hadn’t been with me. She’s a superstar!
