30 day photo challenge: day 5

Day 05 - A picture of your favorite memory.


This post pretty much goes along with my last post, and I thought about just switching titles and having a hypothetical thing be my perfect day, but I think I can pull up some favorite memories.

When I was little, every summer vacation my parents would load us up in the van so early in the morning it was barely light outside, and we'd travel the world. Okay, maybe not the world, but at least the U.S., and Canada a couple times. They'd have a trunk full of books for us to read on the drive, which was always super exciting to see what they got, and we'd hit all the cool tourist spots. They'd even print out a day by day calender for each of us to have. It was awesome. Here we are at Mt. Rushmore. Be jealous of my super sweet shades.

Another favorite memory- EFY when I was finally old enough to go in Florida. These were my two best friends, Katie Johnston and Jenny Smith.

Also, taking a birthday present road trip to Seattle to see the Foo Fighters acoustic show in the coolest venue ever. BJ and I even got to sit super close because there were some empty seats a few rows in front of us. I didn't own a camera at the time, so I don't even have pictures :( , but I will share video because it was so amazing. Best show I've ever been to.




what else? Holding a starfish.

oh! and the time when Melinda and Jason and I went camping in the wilderness and the sirens starting going off and I was pretty sure we were about to die, and we could hear coyotes getting closer and Jason was the only one who had cell phone reception but he wouldn't go get his phone!! I was pretty sure we were goners.

and lastly, Logan telling me he loved me for the first time in front of Sleeping Beauty's castle at Disneyland. Within 5 minutes of this picture-

Ha ha...that's a story he'll probably never forgive me for, but it's still one of my favorite memories.

Day 03 - A picture of the cast from your favorite show.

well dudes. i'd say thats pretty much a wrap. cowabunga? cowabunga!

"it's such a gas when you bring up the past..."

Logan: I had a dream you were having a baby during a hurricane, and they came out and they were RATS! and you wanted to keep them because you said they were your babies!  and I kept telling you no way.
Me: .... 
Logan: It was so.gross.
Me: But.... did I dress 'em cute?
Logan: WHAT?!
Me: Well then they might not look so ratty!!
Logan: oh my gosh.


I think I might be in trouble when I have kids.



 Oh, also, I did some swingin' 60's photos this weekend, which was way fun and you can check them out here: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=278996&id=99220142571&l=0ad2c36e59  :)

30 day photo challenge: day 2

Hello again. We're back with today's post, which is...

Day 02 - A picture of you and the person you have been close with for the longest.


This is a hard one for me. Outside of family I'm not really friends with anyone from my younger years until about high school, and most of those people aren't really "close" anymore... I guess that leaves...

these guys:

30 day photo challenge: day 1

well hello bloggers. blogger-readers. random person who just stumbled on my blog. friends. mom. dad. whoever happens to be reading this.  I'm starting the 30 day photo challenge today. day one is:

A picture of you with 15 facts. 


I'm pretty sure I've done the "hey, random things about me!" at least twice on here, as well as other random "things that make me happy!" posts so hopefully you either haven't read those, aren't tired of reading those, or don't remember them, because I don't and I might repeat some. so, here we go.

Me:

1. if i start watching a tv show consistently with really developed characters, i end up referring to them as my "friends" and talking to logan about them on a first name basis like we really know them. this has happened with chuck, friends, dexter, house, and leverage. oh, and i do it with one tree hill. although logan wont watch it, he pretty much gets a plot summary on how my friends are doing after every episode. 
2. i loathe being put on the spot. probably why i hate those really involved games like cranium.
3. i absolutely love it when someones laugh makes me laugh.
4. i learned how to whistle in the last year! hurray for me! now i do it all.the.time. just like i always said i would.
5. old people scare me. i was at an old people home recently, and this lady came wheeling by slowly, giving me the evil eye the whole time. scariest thing i've ever seen in real life. 
6. i wish i was a pro roller-skater so i could be on a roller derby team. 
7. i love dimples. i want one of my very own. maybe in my next life...
8. i really want a little girl that's just like the little blonde girl on the princess and the frog. a little southern belle in big poofy princess dresses. aw. 
9. i have a soft spot for stuffed animals with really BIG eyes
10. sometimes its funny, but sometimes i get really frustrated that boys can't multi-task. 
11. when i was little, i took a baton-twirling class. yay! go me. 
12. sometimes i really wish i lived in the 20's for the sweet outfits. or some other era equally fun and classy.
13. i don't do number 13s.
14. i'm learning to play percussion. it's awesome.
15. i need sunshine for my well-being.
