flour in your face


Melissa pretending to be peeta by blowing flour. Megan trying to look like katniss.
melissa is painting like peeta. megan is trying to be a warrior katniss and shoot a bow + arrow.
"Don't tell the construction works we stood in their dirt."
laughing really hard after getting scared by birds.
we are so excited! 
terrorizing the library. 

I have this friend. Her name is Melissa. And sometimes she calls up megan and I and demands a photography adventure down town. Yesterday was one of those days.

These adventures are actually some of my favorite. Our small town as so many old buildings and creepy allies. Red bricks are everywhere and the shops that line the streets are colorful and bright.

Of course, taking pictures wasn't the only thing on our to do list. Oh no. Our main mission was to get seven tickets for the midnight showing of the hunger games. Yes. We may be crazy for buying tickets ahead of time in our small town, but, its way more exciting this way. Plus, you get into the theater faster when they open. I actually really love midnight premieres. This will be my third one. They are always a blast! Standing in line, freaking out with friends, staying up late and the darkness of night always makes seeing movies better for some reason.

Also, the fact that our six-eight year old grandma is going to see this movie with us is the best thing ever. She's so cool.

After our adventure to the theater, we walked around town some more, got scared by some birds and megan and melissa did some hunger games poses. (aren't they awesome?) The sun was setting and we decided to go into the library to warm up and megan proceeded to pick up books a read a little and then tell us how dumb it is.

How was your day? Are you going to the hunger games premiere?

My life in pins

Most of us have this common addiction.... to pinterest. How can you not? Inspiring words, photos, style ideas and diys. Its all right there! In one place! I'd have to say, I spend quite a bit of time on pinterest. With 2078 pins and counting, it shows. Seeing a few of these posts yesterday and especially Hannah's, I decided that I had to do one of these things. Because basically there's a lot of things on pinterest that equals my life. And who could pass up this opportunity to share pins on their blog? 

Now, I will say: choosing a few pins is a lot harder than it seems. I spent an hour or so going through pins and finding the ones I wanted. I have a basic three boards and I pin on: lovebeauty+inspiration, and words. With those being my biggest, it took a while. But then I ventured over to my style board and then on to my Harry Potter one.... man. I was in trouble. You all are lucky I didn't included 100 pins in this post. I think I did about 15... which is a good amount because otherwise we'd be here all day and then some.

If you love pinterest, then you should join in on this. It's quite fun really! And I'd love to read your life in pin posts as well!

Obsession with Pinning

If you haven't discovered Pinterest yet, you seriously NEED too. It's possibly the coolest thing ever. I've gotten loads of inspiration off of there and buckets of great quotes and words of wisdom. Its amazing.

Check out these I've recently pinned:












So anyway. I just felt like I need to post about something, because I hadn't posted in a while. Hopefully I'll have a REAL post soon :)
