happy friday! {some tunes, update, fall walks}

are ya guys glad its friday?! I am. :)
first things first--
 i had my last soccer practice on monday and then my last game on tuesday. practice was a causal fun one which i love those :) and we won our game. i think it was one of our best ones too, plus i got my first and only goal of the season. it went up and over and in. it was nice. anyway... ;) So yeah. Soccer is over. I'm having a love/hate relationship with that fact. I'm kinda glad its over but it feels weird not playing soccer almost everyday of the week and not seeing my team. AND this is my last year.  but i've learned a lot and had tons of fun. i'm satsified with it all :)
As for my goals....

be in bed by 11pm . with babysitting and soccer its a really big help to get good sleep! ;] --okay so I didn't meet this one. I went to bed every night around midnight or so.But some of that was due to staying up and watching a movie with my folks :)
workout {30 Day Shred and/or 1 mile run} on thursday. - i didn't do it yesterday because i thought we would go to my sisters soccer practice but it got rained out. SO i'm doing it tonight :)
getting my school done before getting on the computer for pleasure{blog, twitter, pinterest etc.} - school is hard enough already with my health issues and such so most of the time taking away the distraction of the computer is good. --I think i did pretty good on this one! somedays I didn't even get on the computer at all. :) and its really helped me get my school done.
have patience. I think that one is pretty self explanatory. -- ehhh....

We've had some rainy chilly days around here. and we've had some pretty nice days too. and then some where it will be rain for about 20 mins then get all blue sky and sunny for 20 mins. like today. weird weather. but I'm thankful its not somethering hot.
Here are pictures from our walks :)

over the past few weeks there are been some great tunes released. here are some of my recent favorites :)

P.S. Are my photos too big? are they overwhelming?

♥picture sweetness and i love this awesome kid movie♥

I've been taking pictures like crazy and here are some favorites from this past week :) these are pretty good pictures, if I do say so myself ;)

(all of these are edited but not too much. I feel like editing them a lot takes anyway some of the raw beauty of the picture)

this one is my favorite from the week. absolute favorite. my hand with Peanut's :)  

please note: it was very difficult to keep her still so I'm proud of myself with this one :)

this is THE best gluten free cookie.ever. Enjoy Life: Double Chocolate Brownie cookie. And its not only gluten free, its soy,wheat,fish,nut, diary AND egg free. you might think it would taste nasty but its not. They are smaller cookies and they are soft and oh so good. I like them even more than regular gluten filled cookies. yes they're THAT good.

 

 like this one!

ahh.. love :)

love those baby feet and hands! :] 

Day 24- a movie no one would expect you to love

I really like any kind of movie: action/adventure, romance comedy etc. But when it comes to kid movies, I can be a little bit picky. First of all they are putting a lot of adult content into movies for kids and its supposed to be appropriate for them but its not. second, if they don't put adult content into it then sometimes they get all sappy, tasteless, dumb and boring then its a waste of time to watch it. So its rare to find a good wholesome movie that your whole family can watch that is not boring but not too much for the younger ones. and this movie has a fantastic blend of action/adventure and comedy and it does have a little bit of "puppy love" (for lack of a better word) but its really mild. When I first heard about it I thought I " oh good grief, another dumb kid movie" but when  I watched it with my family, I loved it from the beginning. Its one of the best movies this year...

How to Train Your Dragon

the plot was interesting and active and it kept you wondering what would happen next 

it kept us laughing, even my dad! there were some pretty hilarious parts! Hiccup was so lanky, a bit clumsy and cool

I love his friends...  the scenes where they are training are probably my favorite. 

 

and how could you not love Toothless?? :] 

the flying scenes were so neat

well I don't feel like explaining the plot but you can google it and find it ;] and there's word that there will be a How to Train Your Dragon 2 in the near future, we shall see :)

 so there's a movie that at least I didn't think I'd like ;) its really a great movie and if you haven't seen it, go see it and if you have, what do you think of it??

much love,

Samarah
