Weekend excursion: in photos

Remember that I went away for the weekend? To Indiana? Here are some photos, kidlets! I was visiting my friend Lauren for the weekend. I met Lauren maybe in third grade? Fourth grade? We were definitely Pioneer Girls together at Lauren’s church, Pathfinders workin’ on our balancing badge, I think? If memory serves, we wereContinueContinue reading “Weekend excursion: in photos”

What I Wore Wednesday/ pics around town

I interrupt the have-my-family-answer-questions series to present some What I Wore Wednesday and other photos. First of all, I parked my car next to my dream car this morning! Then, at lunch, I walked around. You know something that has always made me think? Those shirts/ mugs/ swag that are like, “[insert city here] isContinueContinue reading “What I Wore Wednesday/ pics around town”

A list of things that are beautiful. By me.

I’m admittedly the only person on the internet who isn’t like, “Hooray, fall!!11! I love sweaters!!” because, while I respect your love of sweaters, I REALLY LIKE SLEEVELESS TANKS.

But,ContinueContinue reading “A list of things that are beautiful. By me.”

People who have visited my house in one week: a sociological experiment

Sometimes we joke that our house could be the feature of a television show–all types of characters coming and going, eating our food (even when we’re not home), hanging out and being ridiculous. It occurred to me that I would, for one week, take a photograph of everyone who cycled through the house. I startedContinueContinue reading “People who have visited my house in one week: a sociological experiment”

A Floral Celebration

I uploaded my pictures of these weekend and noticed an over-arching floral theme. This is not a photography blog by any means…but I think it’s a nice way to outline what’s been up these past few days. Maybe I’m just itchy to start gardening again…the garden is calling out to me. 🙂 I’m pro-flower. They’reContinueContinue reading “A Floral Celebration”

Top Three Photogenic Cardinals in the Current Conclave

I begin by stating: I realize that this is kind of irreverant. I then state: I believe that the Holy Spirit will guide the Church in selecting a new and godly leader. Alrighty then. Now that that’s out of the way: it’s possible that I was told to compile images of the twelve “favored” CardinalsContinueContinue reading “Top Three Photogenic Cardinals in the Current Conclave”
