Yesterday was probably one of the most amazing evenings of all time! More importantly, I got to share it celebrating the birthday of one of two incredible ladies I've recently befriended. To start with, we met up early to drink champagne and fix up. What made this even more enjoyable on top of the girl talk and bonding was the fabulous outfits we all had for our night out! See... it wasn't just any regular old GNO... OH no! We went all out- meaning we hopped the train to party it up next door in Copenhagen, where we walked the busy streets and emerged ourselves in the bustle of the "big city". That alone was enough to up the ante, but meeting up with a special friend of mine- my Mr. Big- who took us in and showed us a ridiculously good time, topped it off! Needless to say we danced and drank the night away- arriving home after sunrise, in true 'Sex and the City' fashion!

Blogger Challenge Day 5- favorite pet!
I'd have to say the horse I had for nearly ten years, Six Chick Goldwood, is probably the animal I've loved the most.
I remember begging my father for a horse for what seemed like forever! Finally, during the first few weeks of my freshman year of high-school, he gave in. At the time he informed me that getting the horse meant that I wouldn't get a car and that that was for me to decide... In my eyes, there wasn't even a choice to be made, and with that, I bought Six home and fell in love!

Wishes and Wants!
Okay, so I kinda have this problem with online shopping. I mean, it starts out innocently enough... Perhaps while I'm catching up on the blogs I frequent or watching a favorite show... Then it happens... something- a bag, a pair of sunnies, shoes, whatever- captures my undivided attention and forces me to search for that particular item incessantly via the internet immediately! Then, after said search is successful in locating said material object striking my fancy, my appetite just isn't satisfied unless I've entered my credit card numbers in the box and pressed 'confirm'. Seriously though, I should get points for honestly. Don't they say that admitting you have a problem is the first place to start?
With that said, I felt I had to show you today's culprits below!
Unfortunately, these lovelies will just have to wait...

Blogger Challenge Day 2- blog name meaning!
Well... let's see... I'm American and I'm living in Sweden- 'nuff said! Just kidding- seriously though, it's true, but I think ya'll deserve a more concrete explanation than that! So here it is...
I moved to Sweden from the US over two years ago for personal reasons... Alright, personal reasons = a boy. CliffsNotes version- At first I thought I loved the boy and hated Sweden. What I ended up realizing is that I love Sweden and not the boy! Go figure!?
I decided to start this blog as a creative outlet to all the things that make me who I am. From fashion and beauty to real life stuff, I wanted a place to express myself. More importantly, I wanted a place to help me find myself, and although 'Adventures of an American girl in Sweden' may suggest to some never ending excitement or weekly travels, for me it basically translates to every day life. That's because I consider every day, every thought, and every challenge an adventure.
So there you go! The meaning behind my blog's name : )
