Love love this! Sounds and looks like you had a faboosh weekend! Mine wasnowhere near exciting.
what a terrific weekend! we recently saw “precious.” it was intensely good.
I hate to admit this but….I have not seen a movie since mid 2006. You read that right. I was pregnant then and could watch a movie. Now, for the past 3 yrs, taking care of a newborn and now toddler…there is just not 2-3 solid hours to sit down & watch a movie. LET ALONE in a movie theater. ha! So no.
Your pics with your beasties rock!
The crackers on the hostess’ eyes are priceless. LOL!
xoxo
I saw The Blind Side, A++ The Goods with Jeremy Piven, B and all 3 Santa Clauses :)
Weekend are always great!
Looks like a fab weekend! I worked all of mine so not so good, had a splendid workout sunday though which made it all better! x x
Those dogs are just so cute I can’t stand it! I shopped a bit this weekend…it was nice. :)
your weekend was filled with everything I wanted to do hahaha. I can’t wait to go see that fox movie and I’m glad you loved it cuz now I really REALLY want to see it. I was also going to see Brothers, but is it super duper depressing??
Love all the snow and your party with all your friends looked awesome. Love the fact you put crackers on the eyes of the hostess!
LOVE THE SNOWW!!!! can’t wait to get back to it!
1. I had a great party with some great friends. And I ate a lot of delish food.
2. The Blindside. way good.
I had a great glowing weekend because I learned to do makeup and spent $$$$ on it!!! such a beauty indulgence, but so much fun!!!
I want to watch 2012 but haven’t yet! :(
Glad you had a fabulous weekend! You always know how to have fun!
Oh, I see. Dexter wasn’t really dexter :P…
What’s the point of having George Clooney in a Movie if you can’t see his gorgeous face? (I’m all for animation, but come one :P)
My weekend was so so and the last great movie I’ve seen was The last Samurai (I watched it for the 3rd time last week – a favourite)
I’m so happy you had such a great time :D
Tis the season to be jolly after all ;)
Love you!
That ski hill looks AWESOME!! I’ve never been to one that big!! man, I think I need to come out there! :) haha
Did you type this up and then title it? Or did you have 22 things in your head before you wrote it all down? LoL, this was great! You deserve 22,000 reasons for a good weekend my dear.
I hear that Brothers is quite depressing. Not sure if I will run out to see it anytime soon, espeically around Christmas. Bring on Elf this time of year, right? :)
Enjoy your Monday hun.
Holy smokes–speed poster :) I cannot believe you went snowboarding when it was that cold outside. I literally only left the house for church yesterday and then parked myself in front of my cookie machine oven to stay warm. Glad you had so much fun this weekend :) xoxo
I think my favorite was No. 10, and other than putting ridiculous hats on my mom’s pets and posting pictures, my weekend was decidedly unexciting :) However, glad you got your snow! Now I’ll send some of ours your way…
had a fabulous weekend and looks like you did too!! i love cinnamon life and haven’t had it in SO long must change that nowww
the party look so fun, too funny with the crackers on the hostess eye’s when she passed out haha, you and your GF’s are so beautiful!!
we got snow on saturday night too! its a winter wonderland outside now, I love when it snows just enough to cover the trees and grass, its so beautiful!
i havent seen ANY good movies recently! well I take that back, I saw marley and Me and hadn’t seen it yet, so cute, but so sad, I cried–im such a girl!
xoxo
sounds like a perfect weekend- YAY for snow!!!!! Do you have snowboarding pics at all for a flashback Friday? I might need to go stalk your facebook to see you in action on the slopes.
1. why did you have a good weekend? I saw my dad, I baked pumpkin maple muffins and watched some awesome TV (YEAH I finally have a TV that works!) Oh, and I am reading a good book too. The weekend involved lots of that.
2. seen any good movies lately? I don’t watch a lot of movies, but saw My Sister’s Keeper recently…sooooo good, but made me cry.
I love love love your weekend! Particularly photos with Santa :)
I saw The Blind Side on Thanksgiving Day and it was great!
I love the picture of you and Marshall with Santa. So funny!

I LOVE your weekend!
Do you like Hep milk on your cereal. I had almond milk on a small bowl of granola and thought it was yuck (even though I drink it in my coffee all the time).
Can’t wait to see FMF! We could have seen Brothers for free but now I’m glad we passed.
Happy Monday!
Those are 22 fabulous reasons! MMmm for chips and salsa ( I ate my bodyweight in kettle chips this weekend) and for multiple greek yog messes.
1) Drove my brand new wheels down to southern minnesota for some hiking. Hung out with new friends eating thai food and drinking beer and vino. yay!

okay FIRST OF ALL – dexter, right!?!?! season 4 is so freaking good. next week’s ep is the season finale! i’m excited but sad to not have any dexter for the next 9 or 10 months :(
1 – i had a good weekend becaust it snowed! (i live in the Washington DC area) and then on Sunday I got my butt outside to run in the snow, for the first time ever in my life. woot.
2 – the last movie i saw in theaters was Precious…it was pretty heavy, but good – there were even bright moments. everyone kicked total acting ass, for sure.
and thanks for the twitter follow, btdubs. heart!
those were gingerbread!!!!!!! whoaaaaa
can you send me some of that hummus – im in the rut of a lifetime, hummus, pretz, PB, game over.
i really cant wait til ski season. soo excited. i worked this weekend, but it was good bc all my patients are still alive. last movie i saw in theaters? ummmmm. julie and julia? no, that cant be right? im such a loser.
We got snow here too!! Tons of it!! So happy you got some solid snowboarding in :) I feel so bad when I see gingerbread houses on display – they need to be eaten!
1. YES. My lat shift at the radio station was on Saturday!
2. Last movie I saw was New Moon. I’m a fan girl. I loved it.
22 is my favorite number too!! Crazy!!
Glad you had a good weekend. :) Mine was okay, ate lots of pizza and spent time with friends. Always good times. :)
Brothers definitely looks depressing.
I watched Pelham 123 this weekend—I enjoyed it! Denzel is always great and John Travolta plays a good crazy bad guy!
I want to see The Fantastic Mr. Fox so bad! I love Wes Anderson.
Looks like you had a great weekend. I wish something like the festival of trees existed here. I love Christmas things like that!
at the risk of blowing up your comments, I shall forego the urge to make a list of 22 reasons why I love you and stick to two
1. your scarf in picture numero tres. Your fashion style is amaze! do you ever get sick of beign so fabulous?! just wondering… ;)
2. You and Marshall.. honestly, you two just need your own reality show stat.
and of course I love you for your yummy eats, being beautiful, making me smile – yada yada yada. :)
Great weekend recap!
That’s so cute that you got pictures with Santa!
And your eats from the weekend look amazing! I love Holiday parties!
Mmm Sunflower Hummus. Party in my mouth=awesome party food.
Awww looks like such a fun weekend! :)
Hmmm mine was good because I had an aaaaamazing dinner and date night with the boyfriend!
Saw 4 Christmases this weekend….ehhhh!
Mmmm, love cinnamon Life cereal! Thanks for the remember of the Fantastic Mr. Fox movie – I have been looking forward to taking my girls to see it!
oops “reminder” not remember lol (brain still in a haze from jet-lag obviously)
AH! Picture of “snowflakes on dogs’ heads” might be my favorite of all time. HOW ADORABLE!?!?!?
Oh wait…you and Marshall and the dogs. Maybe that’s my fave. And I’m sups jealous ;)
I had a good weekend because I met with fabulous bloggers in the city! And ate vegan peanut butter bomb cake.
Hmm, no good movies. Do you recommend Brothers? Cuz I really want to see it! Just need to know if it’s worth the $$.
Hope the beginning of your week is going well! Love you bunches!
Love your list! It’s so kickass that you snowboard, fyi.
Great weekend!
Am in the middle of watching Once Upon a Time in America. Older film starring DeNiro about the Jewish mafia in Brooklyn.
Ha! We both had amazing weekends AND took the weekend off from the internet. I wish I could say I went to ANY mountain, instead I just looked at snow and felt happy. Not a bad second.
ummm all these 22 reasons are also 22 reasons i love you. all hail pumpkin molasses cookies, no technology and SNOWBOARDING…hmmm…maybe i should check flights to utah. what are you doing over new years? :)
I had a good weekend because I SCORED at the Tulle sample sale.
I’m behind on movies. Just saw Where the Wild things are.
You always have such a good time! Love this and it all started with hummus… :)
Do you have a link to the sunbutter hummus? That looks scrumptious..
I love this post! So much fun – looks as though you always have a great time with your friends…that’s awesome. :) The snow looks beautiful! WOOHOO for snowboarding!! We might get snow but not enough to go skiing or snowboarding on.
I had an awesome weekend because we got our tree, decorated our tree, I Jazzercised in a parade, and went roller skating in a rink for the first time ever and could’ve stayed there all night. :)
your weekend sounded perfect :) i loved reading about it on FB too!
here is the link to her hummus~IT IS SO GOOD!
http://thegreatbalancingact.com/eats/Sunflower%20Hummus/
P.S. – The Blind Side and the Michael Jackson movie were both really good.. :)
Glad you had a good weekend! :)
The highlight of our weekend was seeing the holiday lights with the toddler on Friday.
Gosh, can you just make sure you have at least 1 pic of your cute pups in…how bout, EVERY post? I LOVE them! :D
I heard that movie wasn’t very good! :/ glad you still had a wonderful weekend though!
I’m with Abby- Doggies with snowflakes does it for me!
And 15 minute posting- yessss! That has happened in my little bloggie, uh never.
Marshall sitting on santa’s lap cracks me up. I would soooo photoshop you out of it, so that it’s just him and santa, make about 100 copies- all wallet sized and hand it out at your next humongous christmas parties when you know all his best dudes will be there-yesssss! Muuhhhhahahahahah
Weekend good: went from 62 degrees where I was freeeezing to -17 degrees where it is so stunningly gorgeous that I don’t even care that I’m freezing! :-)
aaahhh!! dexter! i’m a few episodes behind but OMG i love it.
i had a great weekend because i, too, ate a lot of chips and salsa :) oh how i love chips and salsa. and although i only wanted to lie around with my cats on sunday, i got in a 60+ minute workout.
i saw “up in the air” and reeeeaaalllyy liked it. you should see it, too. have a great day!
Definitely a ton of reasons to love your weekend! That party with friends looks extra fun :)
1. I had a great weekend because not only did I study for my exams, but also I got to spend a bit of time Saturday night at my friend’s “feliz navidad fiesta”!
2. Does New Moon count, because, yea that’s the only movie I’m thinking of right now :)
glad you had a great weekend!
