Dungarees

So the saga of the dungarees continues. I know, I know- one of these days I will blog about important stuff. Anyways, I decided today was the day to wear them. I hadn't taken them out of the bag since trying them on in the fitting rooms over 2 weeks ago. So I got ready for school and waited till the last minute to put on my dungarees. Needless to say I was a bit confused once I had them on. They fit fine on top, but the bottom half seemed a bit too big. I know the boyfriend fit is supposed to be a bit baggy, but they seemed too baggy. Thankfully I didn't take the tags off yet, because I think I am going to go back to the shop and try on a smaller size. So the furthest these dungarees got was the bathroom mirror. But I did decide that I do love them, and I'm gonna rock them. 

What thinks you people??


A little too baggy hey? Or is it just me? I don't really like too much crotch material. (That was an awful sentence, I know)


And I definitely think white lace-up takkies would look better. 

Oh, and I got a fringe! I am quite conservative when it comes to my hair. The last time I had a fringe was when I was 12 and they looked like something out of 90210. So you can imagine the nerve it took! I was inspired by Lea Michele from Glee. First, isn't she so stunning? I love the look of her fringe and the length. It's long enough that you aren't stuck with it for long as well. I also like that it's not very thick. See, that would be a massive mistake because then who knows how long it will take to be fringe-less again.

I also finally got a hair cut. I hate getting my hair trimmed because I'm trying to grow it out. But I have been having this massive problem the last couple... maybe 3 months. My hair was falling out like crazy. I had to clean my hair brush out every single time I was done brushing it. And when I woke up in the mornings, I could pick hair off my pillow. Gross hey? I had no idea why. I thought maybe it was because I wasn't eating enough veggies, so I upped my veg intake. Then I started taking folic acid and got better at taking my multi-vitamin. Nothing worked. It was dreadful. And it wasn't broken hair, it was full strands. Anyway, I hadn't gotten my hair cut in about 8 months so I decided it was way past time to get it trimmed. Long story long, a trim wasn't good enough. I needed a good cut. So I closed my eyes and let Ashley chop away. And you know what? Since Tuesday I have had barely any hair fall out. I don't know why. I didn't realize hair cuts worked such magic! Cool ne?

And here you have it... The Fringe:


I think I like them. Maybe they accentuate my nose, but nothing that can't be corrected with a little under the knife action! Ha ha.. Just kidding about the plastic surgery!

Moving on. 

I was at Costco a few days ago picking up prints for a retail buying project I had to do and the man behind the counter handed me a 8x10 with my moms name on it. I was like- what the h- what picture did she order in December and forgot to pick up? What is so strange about this is I have picked up photos before this particular pick-up and no such print ever existed! So I had to open it up and see and guess who I found???


What do you know! It's a South African! Ruby-Lynn, did you realize you were missing this picture from your trip in December? I think not! 
Beautiful though hey? She has some of the most stunning wedding photos! I think I may have to keep it for myself. 
Oh, and on a totally different subject about my cousend (cousin/friend)... Ruby is PREGNANT! I am so excited for her and Chace and I cannot wait to meet baby Courtney. ha ha :) 

And lastly...

My mom and Liisa are taking a real-estate course to get their licenses so I get to baby-sit Payton for half a day on Mondays. He is constantly moving and loves to smack Brutus (our elderly bearded collie) on the bum. Can he get any cuter?



Thats all for now!

The Festival of Colours

Reese and I had a really fun weekend! We went bowling and had hamburgers on Friday, but the real fun began Saturday when we went to the Hindu Temple in Spanish Fork for the Festival of Colours. It was way too much fun. Before I post the pictures, I do have a little complaint about the powder we threw. It was supposed to just "wash out"... however the random splotches of pink still in my hair 'aint so pretty. I definitely washed it about 10 times yesterday, and again about 3 times this morning, and it still wont budge. It also ruined the actual colour of my hair. It's turned a bit brassy. If this happened 3 weeks ago, I wouldn't have minded much becaues my hair looked horrible anyways. But when I went to AZ for my mom's birthday I was able to get my hair done, and thanks to the amazing Ashley... it looked fantastic. Now, it looks like poo again. And that is a problem... especially since money doesn't grow on tree's. So if money would like to start growing on tree's, that would be greatly appreciated. And yes, I will be wearing a hat to work tomorrow, and probably the rest of the week.

Anyways, here are the pictures! Anyone who knows me, knows I'd LOVE to travel and on my long list of places to go is India. I love Indian food, clothing, dancing, music, and culture. So, I have told Reese when we do finally make the trip over there it must be during the Festival of Colours, because really- if it could be so much fun in Utah, it's most definitely going to be more fun in India. And don't worry- I will wear a bag over my hair next time... :)

The massive amount of people getting ready to celebrate at the beautiful Temple.


Reese said he was going to ration his packet. First thing he did was take a handful and throw it in my face. Nice.


Already getting coloured.


Waitng for the Indian dancers to come entertain.


Yeah, he need to apologise lots...


Starting to look filthy


Nice shot of yellow in the sea of pink.


Some child (yes, he couldn't have been over 10) crowd surfing.


The Indian dancers


The visability as soon as the count down finished and everyone started throwing powder


Looking ridiculous


People acting weird around the fire that killed the evil witch, Krishna.


Krishna was the evil witch who burned babies.


Cloud of powder


Before it looked just like a sea of pink


Feeling good and dirty


He was so happy about the free red bull


Off to go get some lunch


And the sea of pink


Fun, fun, fun!
