Celebrity obsession of the week...

Jessica Simpson

I know! I know! Most people are probably thinking "What the hell?", but I have always had a great love and appreciation for her! From her days on Newlyweds,



to her amazing shoes, (I would be ashamed to even tell you how many pairs I own, but I'm thinking these need to be mine pretty soon! Can I just say, the most perfect nude pump EVER!!)



to her adorable new line of clothes! This dress is great in so many ways! It will be great for any summer wedding/party I will be attending this year!



And although most people looked down on her for dating a married man(now they are engaged), for some reason, I didn't (and just to clarify, he was in the process of getting a divorce! Give the girl a break).

I mean let's face it, they look pretty happy!



Rock on Jessica, rock on! (and keep making fabulous shoes for me to buy!)

(I've decided not to comment on her engagement ring. Because I think it is hideous. Oops, I commented. Shoot me.)

Celebrity obsession of the week...

Natalie Portman

Isn't she just gorgeous??? Everytime I look at her, I just get jealous because she is so flawlessly beautiful!

She has been a very busy girl as of late. First, came Black Swan.


How jealous am I that she got to wear such amazing dance outfits! I have always wanted to find an excuse to wear a tutu and leg warmers (without being at an 80s themed party)!

Then we find out that she is engaged and pregnant by Benjamin Millepied, a choreographer and her fance partner in the movie. Did I mention how cute he was??

She has already won 5 awards for her performance in Black Swan, including the Golden Globe. She is nominated for the SAG awards that are next week, and even though the Oscar nominations haven't been anounced yet, I'm sure she will be getting that too! And although I didn't personally love her dress she chose for the Golden Globes, her acceptance speech was adorable!!

And her other movie with Ashton Kutcher "No Strings Attached" actually came out today! Oh I can't wait to go see this! It looks soooooo cute!!

So this sums up all of the things that I am loving about Ms. Portman at the moment. Hope you all loved my new weekly post! Stay tuned for next week...

Most of you that know me, know that I am completely obsessed with celebrities! So I thought, what better to do than have a weekly post to demonstrate that. Therefore, each week I will blog about my weekly obsession with a particular celeb; what they are doing, who they are dating, what they are wearing, where they are going... It's a little crazy that I care so much, but I really just can't help it! First post coming soon...

Stay tuned!

And we're off to Branson...

This weekend my parents, 5 brothers and sisters(Judd can't go), my brother-in-law, and niece will be traveling to Branson, MO for a much needed vacation. I know what you're thinking! Branson? For vacation?? At this point, I'll take whatever I can get!

Why Branson you might ask? Well, a few months back, my parents decided to go on a fishing vacation to all of their favorite fishing holes around the south. They traveled to Heber Springs, AR, Eureka Springs, AR, and finally Branson, MO. While staying at the Big Cedar Lodge hotel, they realized you could buy a time share there and jumped right on it! Luckily, it is a part of a bigger time share company that has hotels and resorts all over the country, not just Branson!

So our first venture is to stay in this cabin at the Big Cedar Lodge!




Not that bad!! I am very excited about staying here because it is really nice! It has an indoor pool, hottub, lots of restaurants, and a really fun bar! And did you see that amazing fireplace in our cabin??

Unfortunately, there are no shows that are showing while we are there. All the shows take a break in January and February. There were a few shows that I was really looking foward to, but oh well!! Luckily there are a few musuems and things we can still go to! Also, Country Strong comes out on Friday, so I'm sure we will be going to see that at some point!

Did I mention that my parents are using the time share points to go to Jamaica in March?? SOOO not fair!

Got to go pack! I will let you know how it goes! It will be a miracle if we can go a whole weekend without any fights. 11 people in 2 cabins...it could get interesting!!
