1. I finally got to a movie over the weekend. Marty and I went to see Dark Knight Rises with my sister and her boyfriend. I have to admit…I’m not big on action movies. I used to be, but anymore I really just enjoy movies that make me laugh. Anyways, the Dark Knight Rises was so well done. I was honestly blown away by the story, character development and overall theme. Not to mention I love Joseph Gordon Levitt and Anne Hathaway! I’m so glad that we finally decided to see this!
2. I haven’t listened to Taylor Swift in quite some time, but I am LOVING her new song We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together. The thing I love about Taylor Swift is how honest and genuine her lyrics are. Sure, they’re a bit cheesy at times but I truthfully believe that she is a great role model for adolescent girls – and you can’t doubt that her songs are catchy! I also LOVE the lyric video 
3. This past weekend was really nice. I worked early on Saturday morning; however, I was able to catch up with an old friend at one of my favorite places, The Wine Bistro, that evening. Is there anything better than great conversation, red wine and a cheese board? Very few things compare 
On Sunday, Marty and I spent the entire day together! First we went to church (which I almost overslept for – oops!), then to the gym for a workout, then to my parents for family dinner (with yummy strawberry shortcakes probably the last of summer) and we ended the evening with The Dark Knight Rises.
4. This morning I woke up around seven and decided to take Roscoe on a walk up to Cup O Joe. I enjoyed a cup of coffee on the patio while reading Real Marriage by Mark Driscoll (loving this book by the way.) I love that Cup O Joe gives away free dog treats – and I think Roscoe does too
5. I really need to recover my couch but am unsure of what color fabric to choose. I also can’t decide if it’d be cheaper to just buy new couches instead of spending money on fabric and stuffing (not to mention the time I’ll spend working on it.) Our walls are a dark blue and we have white trim. The couches are cream/beige but I kind of want a fun new color – something that will pop! Or maybe I’ll just find some fun accent pillows? Decisions, decisions!
Love her new song too! Glad you and the boy were able to get out & see a new movie this weekend
Me too
The last movie we saw together (in theaters) was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2!
That sounds like it was forever ago girl, haha.
I am loving Taylor Swift’s new song too! I’m excited for her new CD to come out.
Me too! Can’t wait to hear more
Yay, another Taylor Swift fan! I LOVE her and I love the new single too! I actually saw her in concert two years ago and she puts on an amazing show. And now she’s dating a Kennedy?! I can’t…
I’m jealous that you got to see her in concert. No one would go with me when she came through Columbus! Hopefully I’ll have another chance one day
I used to love Taylor Swift but I can’t stand her new song! I think I’m in the minority though, because everyone on twitter is raving about it lately.
Puppy dog is so cute!! I didn’t know you had a dog.
I didn’t even realize she had a new song until I saw everyone raving on Twitter. I must be behind the times.
It’s funny because I don’t want to like her (I’m more into indie/alternative) but I just can’t help myself!
And yes, his name is Roscoe. Marty got him about two and half years ago (right before we started dating.) He is definitely a handful but at least he isn’t eating my headphones, phone chargers, and shoes anymore!!
