cav games!

cav games is a tradition at my school that's basically a big competition where we play ridiculous games and dress up like crazy people. enjoy :)

happiness in a lens

it's beautiful isn't it?

i have been waiting so long to actually get this lens... really.

and it's in the mail!!!!... i think.

:)

ohio this weekend. i'm hoping to get some senior-ish pictures with my pony

i really wanted to get my senior pictures taken with her since horses are such a big part of my life... but because my horse also happens to live four hours away- i guess i'll just take some of my own!

but hopefully without the snow part...

mmmmm.

i love cooking bread. mainly quick bread. and any of my friends from ohio know that i bring banana bread EVERY weekend i come to see them :)

well i decided to switch it up a little bit...

oh yes...

but if you're reading the ingredients-

i swear that is NOT half n half i put in there... really.

i promise.

okay. maybe not.

but it was SO worth it.

look. beauty.

except that my mom made me put pecans (pee-KANS) in the bread.

oh well.

the epitome of sunday morning...

need i say more?

'10 seniors and seasonal card photos

I'm not around too often- but if you let me know when you want/need pictures taken, i will be here!! It's also that time of year for greeting cards... :)

hello fall

uggs=warm-fuzzy-foot warming love

good morning fall.

it was wonderful to wake up this morning and pull these out of my closet :) today was fall cleaning!!!!! i pulled EVERYTHING out of my horse trunks in the garage... it was a mess. there was stuff everywhere. i never knew i owned so much junk!

... and here is my garage... and only half of the stuff i pulled out of the trunk. it needed to be done though. it was like a blast from the past! i found so many old things that i haven't seen for years! plus... my mom cleaned out some tubs of clothes- from the 80's and 90's- it was hysterical; i'll put photos of that up some other time.

who knew that i would be rolling wraps this weekend. i mean, it's a normal happening in ohio on the weekends... laundry, laundry, laundry. But i honestly think i rolled more wraps today than i do most weekends.

look who decided to join me-

my Grace. i've had her since i was in third grade. it's so sad to look at these pictures and see all the white on her face and still remember her as a little puppy. at the same time, she is still so lively and full of happiness; that makes me feel better.

but those eyes...

surprise! times three!

tonight was exciting!

originally, i was under the impression that we were having a surprise birthday party for my friend ali. of course i was not suspicious at all... i've never had a surprise party so i didn't even think about it. well ali picked me up and i thought i was being all sneaky- she thought the party was for our other friend sam... i sat there and laughed to myself- ali had no idea!!

wrong.

we got to catablu (amazingness redefined) and it was a "surprise" for all of us!!!

there were three small cakes on the table; one for each of us- it was so much fun. i would love to write more but it's so late and i HAVE to wake up and study in the morning. high school...
