Beginning

Today we started our vacation. So far it has included Waffle House, taking mirror pictures in the hotel room, a bridge, & seeing tiny bit of Baylor University.

Occupy: Empty Drawer

Our cat, Pooh, seems to think that he has the right to make himself cozy when a drawer is open. Have I mentioned that he's spoiled?

I love...

days when we get to spend hours lying around the house while watching the Olympics.

Moving it

Today we helped my sister move. It made me want to decorate!

Sisters

Today...
my little sister made & served me lunch.
my older sister took me out for impromptu sno cones.

I'm pretty blessed to have them for sisters. <3

First time...

- to eat (boxed!) mac & cheese made in the microwave.
- to get a bite on the chin from this cutie.
- to eat a cherry + lime sno cones.

Chemistry

It's safe to say that I laughed out loud at each of these. Does that make me nerdy? Oh well.

ps - My absence the last four days was not a result of death or anything like that, at least not physically.

I know

Ok, I KNOW I have an addiction to sno cones. You don't need to tell me. In my defense, I wanted this sno cone last week.

That's not a very good defense, is it?

Lines

30. That's how many CTFxC vlogs I've watched today.

Yeah.

Don't worry though, I DID leave the house for prayer & a sno cone. Remember when our friend went to Oxford + London? SHE'S BACK! So we had sno cones with them & chatted about her trip. She brought me back Prince William + Catherine postcards and a plate. So sweet. (:

Rooftop

Sometimes you do things you never really expected. Like today, I cleaned leaves off the top of our church building, which involved climbing up a ridiculously tall ladder.

Oh, & my dog is a psycho. (:

Looking back

Today involved a lot of looking back. We spent a couple hours driving around surrounding towns, highlighting the different homes and schools my dad & aunt lived in & went to way back when.

The sunset looked like cotton candy.

& my mom has the best cooking.

Can't go wrong with a blue sky

It's true. Everything could be awful, except for a blue sky. Today I had Chick-Fil-A (yes, again, what's your point?), went to IKEA with my cousin (he's back in town), and worshiped at a church with a couple hundred people.

Today rocked.

Jar of Hearts

Chick-Fil-A, the library, the sno cone stand, & the MacBook Pro are the places I've spent time today. & I love every single one of them.

Any day with Chick-Fil-A is a day I love.

&, in case you were wondering about the post title, it's because of this song, which I've been listening to one repeat for days.

Pink skies

I love sunsets. Like, a lot.

Tonight's was amazing. Pink clouds are probably one of my favorite things in the world. They're so beautiful.

Layers

Today I explored a modern office building & had a sno cone.

The proposal

Today included exploring the eighth floor of a hotel & the big question: will you be my junior editor?

Glass

Today consisted of glass art, Chick-Fil-A, & Olive Garden.

& napkin folding. It was great fun.

Funnies

I think everything is hilarious. Like, e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. Here's a couple things that have made me laugh the last few days, aside from my dog.

p.s.- this may or may not be post because I took no good pictures today. Welp.

Big Cedar Lodge

A couple weeks ago I had the opportunity to stay at Big Cedar Lodge,  a resort ten miles south of Branson, Missouri. It was probably the most beautiful place I've ever been. I miss it. <3
