As I was loading these pictures up I was eating cheesecake. I was like cheese... cheese... something about cheese.
and then I remembered what I had planned to post today. Plans change. Cheese will have to wait.
Unless you want me to tell you about how I once made a cheesecake that tasted exactly like cheese.
It was gross. Thats all there really is to that story.

Lucy finally got to start school today! She looks pretty excited don't you think?
no?
Um yeah no. BUT she did admit to having fun after the fact. We have been having some motivational issues with Lucy lately. Her main goal for every day is to stay home and play on the computer as much as possible.
She's an addict.
Perhaps it's time to move the computer out of her bedroom??
Do you think i dressed her patriotic enough for voting day? Total coincidence. I promise. I'm really not that nerdy.
Did you vote today?! I did.
If you live south of Guadalupe Rd. you probably didn't get to fully enjoy the monsoon taking place north of Guadalupe Rd. about dinner time. (it was a doozey) I got all excited to take my kids out in the rain and get some fun photos...
Pulled into my neighborhood... dry as a bone. What does dry as a bone mean anyway? I don't get it and yet I freely use it. Hmm.
conditions not being what I had hoped for I sat around and WAITED for the rain... that never arrived.
hence the flowing golden locks.
and the sky was moody, so even though the sun was up, it was hiding behind the dark clouds in the west.
Hence the graininess.
I saved this one for last.
I think because I love it most. It looks like an old photo I've seen before. I edited this photo three other ways and in the end boring old black and white is what stuck. With all the tricky B&W actions these days you'd think... but no.
Now i shall have to look through all my old photos to see why this is sticking out as familiar to me.
just a side note: my mom surprised me today. It was so sweet an unexpected. She must have read my recent blog post where I had posted some pretty things from Anthropologie... remember those pretty little vases?
They showed upon my doorstep today!!! Haha!! my mom is amazing.
love you ma! <3
(just goes to show what putting it out there can do for you!!)
