One Day I Went to Work.......

Well I've been working on a Commercial for "What Next Utah", It's been fun because I got to work with a lot of my friends and I made some friends.

We attracted ALOT of attention with our car, and when the 100th person stopped by to ask what we were doing, I told them "Well I'm driving to Anchrage, what are you doing?"


My friend Justin climbing down off the top of our car, I was sooooooo glad that wasn't my job. I hate heights SOOOOO much, especially when they involve ladders.


Getting ready to drive my sweet awesome car to Anchorage.


This is us filming, I was on crowd control during filming.... I got yelled at a lot and I yelled a lot back. According to my boss, I am not a people person.

This is not the commerical we were filming today, this is an older one but you get the idea.

Vintage and Fabulous


So I have been setting up our new house and I bought a sofa today, I've been searching antique stores for a vintage, sophisticated, sofa from between the 20's and 60's and today I found it and bought it on the spot!!! Though later I may reupholster my velvet, vintage, golden green, marvel, for now I think IT LOOKS MARVELOUS.
When I throw my "CHRIS IS HOME" BBQ in our back yard, you can all come and bask in it's unadulterated, ancient, awesomeness.

Blond once again...


So I'm going blond once again. This is the first step in a 3 step process. In the next six weeks I'll go blonder and blonder. Right now my hair is very stripey. I pretty much look like a tiger.

George Nakashima the first in a long line of loves.

I have been decorating our house and I never knew before how utterly ridiculous, and unrealistic my taste in furniture and decor is. After my first sad look around RC Willey I swore to myself an oath to never enter it again, and I began my search in antique shops. Some how no matter what it is in the shop I manage to find the most outlandishly priced object and fall in love.

Here for you to see, is the object of my first surreal and unhealthy romance with furniture, and his name is George Nakashima.
I did not try to buy this exact table but a table extremely similar. You should have seen the sales women's face when I asked for the price, she told me 100,000 dollars! And for a delusional 24 hour period I considered selling my kidney on the black market so I could buy it. The least expensive version of this table I can find is 800$ and it breaks my heart but I had to let it go.

My next delusional, hopeless love affair was a with a rug, a extremely expensive, gorgeous 8,000$ rug but that is a sad, sad, story for another time.

Busy Days I Have........



Saturday was amazing and made me so happy.
