Today my sister locked my parents’ office door and the key is nowhere to be found. Having always wanted to pick a lock, I rushed up there with a bag of paper clips in hand. After watching five YouTube videos on how to pick locks and many failed attempts later, my husband and hungry children insisted we head home. I am determined though to figure it out and cross that skill off my bucket list, so if you lock yourself out, please give me a call BEFORE the locksmith. 😉

Any expert lock pickers reading this blog that wanna give me some tips?

Two Races In Two Days

Posted on April 8, 2013 by Rena Anne

This past weekend I ran two races.

First was the “Run or Dye 5k”. To call this a race is laughable, since we stopped in the middle of the race to lay down and take pictures. Ha!

We were covered in chalk before we even started running.

run 1

As you “ran”, there were dye stations that you would run through and they would throw handfuls of chalk on you.

run 2

It was super fun, but I am a little afraid my armpits are now going to be permanently dyed pink.

I ran the Carlsbad 5000, also a 5k, with my friend Irene.

I honestly thought at one point in my race that I was going to pass out, but I was able to finish it in about 33 minutes, which is a time I am super proud of!

Don’t know if I’ll ever do TWO races in one weekend again, but I had a great time and will be taking it easy this week.

Hair-spiration

Posted on April 5, 2013 by Rena Anne

I love change. Not when it comes to people, such as friends moving away, but I am a big fan of moving furniture around, trying new restaurants and changing my hairstyle.

As long as it keeps things fresh and interesting.

I love to take risks with my hair and make statements, therefore I have this itching feeling to chop it or perm it.

Ruh roh.

Here’s what’s been inspiring me lately:

Hair 1

1-5- I love short, choppy bobs, but I think my husband would have a heart attack if I lobbed my hair off. Plus, long is so much easier to style (Can you tell this has been a continual argument in my head for a while now? Blerg.)

6-I love ANYTHING and everything that Rachel McAdams does. She’s so gosh darn pretty. If only my hair were naturally wavier…

hair 2

7 & 8-I love the longer layers of Carrie & Rachel’s do’s. Plus I would be able to pull my hair into a ponytail.

9-I’ve never really thought Jessica Biel was that pretty until I saw this picture (plus, she stole JT, so I don’t know if I can ever forgive her), but I LOVE the ombre color she’s rocking and the beachy, long layers with thick bangs (I’m not ready to give mine up).

10 & 11- I love these medium length cuts, especially #11’s waves.

And “The Carrie Diaries” has me wanting to perm my hair so badly. I mean, who wouldn’t want these Goldilock-can’t-keep-your-fingers-out-of-my-hair curls?! So, so, so pretty.
