Quick Story
Soooooo, remember
that one time I flew all the way to LA to see my husband James Franco at a showing of his movie where he was supposed to do a Q&A? Good story.
Well, thanks to Seth Rogan who is directing a movie James is currently filming in New Orleans, that is behind schedule, James couldn't come.
Wah Wah.
Major Franco Fail.
Needless to say this:
Was the closet I got to James Franco in LA. I attended his art exhibit at MOCA. It was called "REBEL" and was about James Dean, Brad Renfro and Natalie Wood. Well, Sorta.
Its VERY hard to explain.
I liked it.
But I knew what I was getting myself into.
Pinky had no idea.
A snipit of our conversation following our visit to the exhibit:
Pinky:"That was not what I expected!"
Heidi: "What did you think it was going to be?!?"
Pinky:"I thought it was going to be a nice tribute to James Dean not blood and feathers and porn!"
The exhibit did include all those things. Plus a swimming pool with a motorcycle in it, loud noises, dark rooms, and a lot of different movie things being projects in houses.
I think for the most part, I got it. But, I could be totally wrong.
I've seen "Rebel Without A Cause" and considering I spend my spare time watching James Franco interviews on YouTube, I am pretty sure I get what my husband was going for.
It's paint not real blood. Don't worry.
Yes, that's James below in the red jacket with his head in someones crotch.
In case you are wondering what is happening in that first pic of James Franco, he is getting "Brad" carved into his arm for Brad Renfro. I know this because I watched the same video shown in the exhibit months ago...

Five Friday Faves-Spring!
Spring is finally here! I'm so excited I can hardly stand it! Spring is one of my favorite times of year for all the lovely, exciting things it brings! Sunshine, baby animals, fresh fruit, soccer season and more! Here are five of my favorite spring things. What are some of your spring faves?
Strawberry Iced Tea: I just found the most delicious kind at Tevana -Strawberry Paraiso. Its so yummy!
Stella McCartney's new sunglasses line. They are all so cute. Fun shapes, prints, and colors, and they are all Eco-friendly! It can't get better! (Except they all cost over $200...)
How cute is this little tree filled with birdies. I'd love to put it in my house but that cats would have it destroyed in under 2 mins.
I LOVE lambs. My first stuffed animal was a lamb and my entire life I have wanted sheep as pets. I think this little guys is just as excited for Spring as I am!
I love this quote about Spring. It's such a pleasant reminder.
HAPPY SPRING!!!!

Each Day
The first three I can help you with, the last one is up to you.....

and, if possible,
speak a few reasonable words.
-Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Five Friday Faves-Winter Edition
Yes, its true I'm not a huge fan of snow/cold/winter. But since we finally had snow last week (And I realize how important snow is to UT for so many different reasons...) I present to you my Five Friday Faves, Winter Edition.
Fave Winter Accessory:

Scarves. All kinds! As long as they are soft. I always check a scarf for softness before purchase.
Fave Winter Spot:

Um yeah. Who wouldn't want to cuddle up on this porch with a hot chocolate and an even hotter boy? I feel like a deer could just wander up and take a snack from your hand.
Fave Cute Winter Thing:

I'm a big fan of the word "smitten".
Second Fave Cute Winter Thing:
Snowmans in love. So cute.
Fave Winter Pic:

Okay, to be honest I have no clue if this pic was even taken in winter, or of that's snow, but its to die for. Clearly my romantical side has started to come out.
(Don't worry my cynical, bitter, angry side will return soon I'm sure)
And a bonus, LOVE this song: Ingrid Michaelson -Men of Snow
Happy Snow Days Everybody. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Arts Festival
Last Friday Allison and I headed down to the Utah Arts Festival. I always find it a bit over rated and usually only end up going because someone wrangles free tics. But, this year, I bought my first piece of art!
