Theater Thursday.

Last night I went to the musical "Million Dollar Quartet" with these girls:




The musical is based on a time when by Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins were at a jam session at Sun Records in Tennessee in 1956.



My favorite part was when Johnny Cash sang, "Walk The Line." (I thought of you dad!)


I also loved watching the *older* audience members clap along with smiles on their faces. I'm sure they were remembering rock and roll back in the good ol' days.

P.S. Before the show, we stopped by Cookie Bar for some delicious homemade cookies.





And now. It's the weekend. Why hello there! I've been waiting for you!

National Dessert Day.

I love sweets.


Probably a little too much.


But, yesterday was National Dessert Day!



I finally made it to "Mindy's Hot Chocolate" - this charming little restaurant in Chicago. I enjoyed hot chocolate with a homemade marshmallow.

Charlotte and I also fell in love with warm donuts dipped in chocolate with Carmel popcorn on the side.


Sweets make you sweeter, right?!


I think so.


{Alex, of course I ate all these sweets in your honor.}

My Hair!

Remember how my hair looked last weekend?


Well, today I just donated 10 inches to Locks of Love!


(Sorry for a blurry pic. I snapped this while shopping at Target. I'll post a better one sometime soon!)


A couple of years ago, I nannied for a cute family and the young mother was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 31. I'll never forget how the simple wig she wore made her look like a celebrity - I thought about this nanny-mom today while at the salon.


October is breast cancer awareness month!


Maybe I'll start donating my hair every October.


You should too! It's a pretty sweet feeling.


Promise.

Kansas Love.

Happy Wedding, Kylie and Chris!


I loved catching up with my high school girlfriends!


Here's {almost} all the girls from the "Sexy Seven."



And, I LOVED General Conference. Mucho. You can check it out here!


Quality time with my parents is the best.


P.S. Thanks to the United flight crew for not showing up to work on Sunday evening, I spent an unplanned 20 hours with my parents. I didn't mind.
