Phillies win the World Series!

This is an amazing moment for Philadelphia. The 2008 Philadelphia Phillies have just won the World Series!! I am so excited! I hear fireworks going off outside as I write this.

Melrose Place Spin-Off

Yahoo reported that due to the success of the remake for the show 90210, that The CW may do the same for Melrose Place. Here is a link to the article: http://omg.yahoo.com/news/melrose-place-spin-off-in-the-works/14752

I loved this show when I was younger and would absolutely watch the new show in the 2009-2010 fall season.

It's so funny to look at this picture and see "Tom" and "Bree" from Desperate Housewives. I remember what a crazy person Marcia Cross played on Melrose.

Two down, Two to go

I have been reading the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer and I just finished book two entitled “New Moon”. I am not what you would call a book person, but I have been completely sucked in. I bought the first book (“Twilight) to read here and there on my honeymoon and needless to say I couldn’t put it down.

I already have the third book (“Eclipse”) and will hopefully start that tonight. The last and final book is “Breaking Dawn”. They get bigger as they go on, so these might take me a little longer to get through.

The movie for the first book comes out in theatres November 21st and I cannot wait! I have seen the trailer and it looks terrific.

Caramel Apple Pops

I have one more reason why I love autumn and halloween so much...Tootsie Roll Caramel Apple Pops! These little babies are delicious and are only available (from what I've seen) until Halloween. If you like caramel and green apple flavor, then you have to try them. They're also guilt-free compared with a lot of other candy out there. 1 pop = 60 calories, 0.5g fat, 15g carbs, 0g fiber.

Don't want to be a jinx but...

The Phillies are on the cusp of winning their 2nd World Series in history. The team has a ton of heart and the city is electric right now. I have never seen so much excitement and it is truly amazing to be a fan right now.

I was thinking today about how I went to the home opener back in April. Who knew that they would make it this far? That day was special because we were picked to go onto the field and participate in a parade and cheer on the team for a successful 2008 season. It was so amazing to see all the players, give them a high five and wish them well. Here are some pictures I took from that day:

Lazy Sunday

Today was the first day that I have done absolutely nothing is as long as I can remember. I layed on the couch with the dogs and caught up on some tv (Grey's, Lipstick Jungle and Biggest Loser). The dogs were lazy too. I needed this day very bad. Although the big day is over, there are many post-wedding things to get done. I also teach ice skating classes and everything is starting to catch up with me. I do feel much better though and the Phillies are winning, so all is well.

Here are some cute pics of the dogs that I had to share:

Cute and compact

I saw this on Sephora's website and had to get it. I always need a basic lip gloss and perfume for my bag. This is a 2-in-1 that should be perfect. I think it is super cute too!
