chevron and bunting [day 249]

highlights of today: beautiful weather (it's so nice being outside again!), checking everything off my todo list, and a beyond adorable letter from a dear friend. I can't get over how perfect it is.

self portrait [day 248]

my labor day was all kinds of lovely. a little hike through the woods, gorgeous weather, delicious good, and a crazy, amazing family make any day a good day.

mustangs [day 245]

I was invited to Ree Drummond's (aka The Pioneer Woman) ranch for the day -- to say I was excited would be an understatement. see my main blog for more details...it was a day I won't forget, that's for sure.

silly sister [day 244]

I don't know what I would do without my sisters. Even if they are a bit crazy...but that makes them fun ;)

sunset in the city [day 243]

driving home from the pool today, the sunset was spectacular. it made me wish I was out in the country, so I could capture it unobstructed, but sometimes sunsets in the city are pretty too.

apples on a monday [day 241]

today was the best monday in a long time. I was actually sad to see it go. the morning was spent sprawled on a quilt in the backyard with paper and a pencil, a book, and some worksheets. I took a break to photograph some unidentified type of apples growing in the bushes...photography makes my heart swell.
