our {little} weekend.

happy weekend.
we've been awfully busy over.
a weekend full of dance, work, errands, homework and church.
that's a typical weekend for us.

we were just saying today, that we are in need of a "real" weekend;
the kind where you sleep in until who knows when.
you eat breakfast in bed, 
not feeling rushed to go to dance or work.
one where you stay in your pj's all day until you have to 
get ready for a lovely dinner date out on the town.
where you stay up way too late laughing, talking and sharing gelato.
and finally go to bed because you're eyelids are heavy;
heavy from laughter and exhaustion from play time.
okay, back to reality: 
maybe we'll be lucky to have one of those weekends
once the semester and dance season is over.
our fingers are crossed. and our hopes are high.

although, our weekend was pretty rockin' 
due to one small event....
the hunger games.
we absolutely loved it.
{and feel slightly awesome because we know the director.}
we've been waiting and anticipating this weekend for quite awhile.
we are so happy the movie lived up to all of our expectations. 
did you race to the theater to see it too? 
if not, snap to it- you must see it!
{but, please read the book first. that's a must.}
oh, and do note:
if you get motion sickness easily- don't sit too close.
lovebird had to get up and change seats half way through.
he left me by myself.
which, turned out to be a good thing.
why? because i cried my eyes out a few times-
and he always makes fun of me for being such a girl.
look who's the girl now...
he can't stand a little running through the forest. 
"boom roasted"

have a lovely sunday night.
"may the odds be ever in your favor."

  7. you are too cute. i love your hair. seriously jealous of it.

    also, i would love a weekend like that, but sadly that probably wont happen for who knows how long.

    lastly, we saw the hunger games last night, and it did indeed leave me a little motion sickness. but it was good. we definitely enjoyed it.

  12. I can't wait to see it! But, I am still waiting to finish the book. Part of it was filmed in my hometown {not as cool as knowing the director but still pretty cool for a small podunk town}.

  15. Haha! I agree on the motion sickness! We sat pretty close but I soldierd on and loved it:) very cool you know the director. They did a great job! I'm glad to hear others loved it because my sister in law read the books and loved them but thought the movie was too violent. Not sure what book she read, lol!

  17. Quiet weekends are the best! You must purposely invest in those weekends! I did get to see the Hunger Games this weekend and we sat too close for this movie! I did feel sick during the entire movie... Sigh... Next movie I will sit in the VERY back row! xoxo A-
