summer to do list: make a craft

so on, my summer to do list, it says "make a craft."  i did this craft unintentionally and it took me less than five minutes, but it counts, right?  haha.  i made a new pencil holder:

so, you find a jar and a piece of ribbon and tie it around it... no big deal,  but still, it's pretty cute, don't you say?

welp, more summer to do list things coming up!

♥, sarah

p.s. is anyone else as excited for this new sipder man movie as much as i am?!?!?!  it's called "the amazing spider man!"  i can't wait!  i love spider man!

sister date!

as you may know from an earlier post, my sister {chanel} and i went on a sister date yesterday!  she gave me a "coupon" for christmas saying she would take me out for one "sister date."  and i hadn't used it 'til now!

we kicked it off by going to logan's roadhouse!  best place ever!!!  they give you peanuts and you just throw the shells on the floor!  and the have a jukebox full of country music!  here are some pics of us in front of their sign.

{me on the left, chanel on the right...}

 this is chanel showing me how to crack a peanut open...

"on the peanut, there is a little line, that is like the seam of the peanut shell.  line up the seam with your teeth, bite, and the peanut will split open."  -chanel

then nelly took some pix of me!

they have this sign on all of the booths, because there is this step, and for some reason it makes me crack up.  haha.

here are the rest of the pics from logan's...

{the peanut bucket!}

{my "to go" box}

 then we went to tempe marketplace.

there we went to a few places....  though, first we went to charmin' charlies.  {this awesome jewelry store!} we didn't buy anything, but it was fun anyways!  did i mention it was both of our first times going there?!

this was an accidental picture, but it looks awesome!!!!

we also tried on some wedding ring look-a-likes!  we took pictures with our favs.

{left: my hand, right: chanel's hand...}

{left: me, right: nelly}

then we went to mojo yougurt!  yummm!  :P

we both got chocolate, but i got 2 big brownie chunks and some cookie dough chunks on mine!

then we went to downeast basics, it'sugar, and gap.  sorry i don't have any pics, but we kind of got distracted, espeically in it'sugar!  that was an amazing place!  i just wanted to eat everything!  oh and at gap we saw this hoody that totally looked like niall's from one direction:

identical.

then i splashed my feet in the little water park there.

yup!  we had a great time.  best memorial day ever!!!!

♥, sarah

p.s. i finally got that trim today!!!!  my hair is split-end free!  it feels amazing!!!

rags

this movie, "rags," {that i was telling you about last night}  was actually really, really good!  i wasn't expecting a musical, but, i'm still in love!  don't worry it was the least cheesy a musical could be.  {but still kinda cheesy...}  they are playing it again on nick with behind the scenes footage this saturday and i'm totally going to watch it again!  can't wait!

oh! and according to wikipedia: "Rags follows the story of Charlie Prince, an orphan living with his acerbic and unloving stepfather and spoiled, simple-minded stepbrothers. Charlie's dream is to be a singer, and while he is vocally talented and can write music, he can't seem to catch a break. Kadee Worth, on the other hand, is the daughter of music mogul Reginald Worth and is an international pop phenomenon. While the world knows her as a glamorous superstar, she is secretly frustrated with singing other people's songs and wearing clothes other people choose for her. Kadee wants the world to hear and see her true talent. Despite every obstacle that gets thrown in their way, once Charlie and Kadee find one another, they each finally get what they have been looking for – a voice, a stage, an audience and each other.This movie has a fairytale story line with an amazing plot."

that explains the movie really well.  click here for the movie's music video. 

i love the song! {me and you against the world"}

love it!  i seriously recommend you watch it! {the movie... well, and the music video.....}

welp, are you guys having a good memorial day?  i am.  my sister and i had a "sister date" and it was super fun!  *post to come for that*  it was freakin' awesome.  welp, here's your song suggestions for the week....


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

skinny love by bon iver {original version}

skinny love by birdy {cover}{i know i've already done this song, but...}

&

skinny love by ed sheeran {also a cover}

oh and while we're on ed sheeran, {who by the way i'm freaking obsessed with some of his music right now...} i would also suggest these two songs...

small bump by ed sheeran

&

 lego house by ed sheeran....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

i know, i know, this is a lot of songs, and it's a lot to take in, but i really love skinny love and those covers are by two of my fav artists....  and like i said i'm loving some of ed sheeran's stuff, so... yeah!  welp, until next time!

♥, sarah  

p.s. is anyone watching that new nick movie "rags" tonight?  i am, it actually looks pretty good to me, but i don't know, maybe that's just me.  also, it looks like that disney movie "make it shine" or something...  oh nick and disney, how you always have the same things...  rags looks better to me. if anyone watches either though, tell me what you think.

the hair goal

so, this summer i have decided to try {notice the emphasis}to do a different hairstyle every day, as much as possible without heat {straightener, curling iron, etc...}.  the reasons as to why:

1. i am trying to grow out my hair {no heat}

2. i am not a big person for doing different hairstyles.  i have literally straightened my hair pretty much every day for the past year.  i want some variety.

&...

3. to learn super sassy cute hairstyles for 8th grade!

yeah, it's crazy, so tonight {or sometime soon} my mother is giving me a trim {to get rid of my horrible split ends!} and let the growing of hair begin!  

today i did a classic ponytail with a flower on the rubber band.  {sorry i don't have a pic for you guys!}

♥, sarah

last day of school!!!!!

{welp, it is now!!!! :)}

welp, yesterday folks was the last day of school until august.  i'm so happy/excited!  a little bit sad fits in there somewhere....  {only because i will miss all of my friends [especially you anna!] and well, i can't believe i am saying this, some teachers, too.}  but, anywhoooo, it has been a great year!  i remember the first day of school, i wasn't that nervous until i stepped out of the car and started walking away.  i was thinking... ok, where the heck do i go from here?!  i was so freaked!  but i was fine and not even late to any of my classes.  {except i think i was late to math the second day....}

but, congrats to my graduating seventh grade year!  we made it!  we got through our first year of junior high fine and now we're off to the top of the school!  the big dogs!  {or should i say cats?}  no more being a "sevie!"  {for the record, i was always proud of being a sevie, i almost said thank you to the "eighties" every time!  hee hee.}  go sabercats!!!

congrats to anyone else graduating from anything!  {12th grade, 6th grade, 8th grade, kindergarten...}

♥, sarah

p.s. excuse my horrible memory, i mean, by golly! i forgot music monday!  welp, here is the song i would have done...  let's just call this tunes thursday:

let's do a classic, this song has been stuck in my head lately, so...

i wanna dance with somebody by whitney houston

music monday

today's song....

stole my heart by one direction!

{this song kind of sounds '80s, but it's awesome!

i am obsessed!

also,

be ok by ingrid michaelson

my friend kallee suggested this.  it's a good song!

♥, sarah

p.s. i love this vid, it's hilarious!

vas happenin' boys- one direction

1D

so, surely, many of you had heard of the band, one direction, otherwise known as, "1D..."  welp, i freakin' love 'em.  here is a pic, with names, ages, birthdates, and all:

the first time i heard of them, was on the today show and i thought, "ew.  a boy band... and they sound like the backstreet boys."  {not that i have anything against the backstreet boys, it's just... i don't really like boy bands... usually...}  the song i heard them sing was "one thing," {which by the way i love the music video for...}  it sounds like "i want it that way." {by the backstreet boys...  see where i made that match?}  

but then my sister and i were in the car and "what makes you beautiful" {i like this music video too...} turned on...  and let's just say... by the end of the song i was singing along...  but i still didn't like them enough to say i was "dedicated" {see here} to them.  but then i looked them up and i fell farther and farther and, like i said... i freakin' love 'em now.  aren't they cute? 

my favorite is liam...  who's yours?

{liam payne  ♥}

♥, sarah

music monday

i am currently obsessed with the song...

even if it breaks your heart by the eli young band

hope you enjoy!

♥, sarah
