i finished my first half-marathon!
i thought it was going to be painful but it ended up being so much fun.
as you can see from the pic above, the scenery wasn't too shabby.
i was pretty proud of myself considering i have a herniated disc in my back.
i managed to run the whole thing with no backpain!
training works, folks.

congrats to everyone who finished!
especially my bad ass friends who did the FULL.

modern fam in jhole.

last month, the incredibly hilarious Modern Family filmed their season premiere in jackson.
unfortunately i didn't get to meet my hero, al bundy....
they filmed at the gorgeous Lost Creek Ranch
and i seriously can not wait.
cam on a horse people....cam, on a horse.

the show airs tomorrow night on abc!

knock off.

i have to say that after living in a teeny mountain town for 3 full years,
i've become quite saavy with zee online shopping.
i'm all about shopping local and supporting jackson hole businesses
BUT i can't always afford to shop the designer brands our little boutiques offer.
two winters ago i bought a pair of knock off frye boots from target and they received compliments
all. the. time.
i politely smile and then chuckle inside knowing that i'll probably spend more on my bar tab for the night.

with fall approaching, i thought it only appropriate to share some of my latest knock off finds.
rock em like the real deals and save yourself some mula!
