In town.

Like I mentioned before, Kendra and me drove out to town for more picture taking...

It was warmer. ?? Ok, just say a LITTLE bit more warm.

Anyways, minus the cold it was a ton of fun!!

Enjoy!!

Kendra:

She's beautiful I'm telling you, beautiful!

and yours truly:

warming my hands....

Did I mention that Kendra made the A-mazing scarf I'm wearing?

Standing beside a big patch of ice.
Told you it was cold!

Anyone who really knows me notice the not-exactly-real/normal smiles???? (no teeth showing) I had a thing put in my mouth called a 'hyrax'. It's in there to widen my mouth so when I get braces in a couple months there's room for my teeth to straighten.(: Also, if you were wondering, YES it was painful a few weeks ago when I had to tighten it twice a day... It's not so bad now although food gets stuck.Alot. Like when my aunt made yummy chicken noodle soup. It took more time to pick out the chicken than to eat the soup... Ok, so where was I?? Ahh, yes, my entire jaw got about 5mm--seems more like 5 feet--wider which means that I now have a big gap in between my two front teeth... I'm used to it now(I think???). Dr. said it should come together in couple weeks. When my teeth are all nice and straight like Kendra--who just got her braces off not too long ago--I'll have a nice big smile to show you!! Can't wait!!!

When you're usually the one behind the camera you don't think about it but THE SHUTTER SOUNDS HILARIOUS when going off rapidly..

To warm up, we went into this cozy book store.

Lots of color + books + yummy light + cousins having wayyyy too much fun = super fun pictures

Story time with Kendra.......

Yummy bokeh. Pretty girl.

I know.....I look so relaxed.

The reason??

You can't see it in the picture but a car is approaching from behind..

More to come from our trip.

As of today I am now a legal driver!!!

With blue skies and colorful leaves

.........comes sniffles, sore throat, freezing toes, and a want to stay in bed all day long.

If it wasn't for the beauty of fall I'm not sure I could love and enjoy it...

color?...

or b/w??? I couldn't decide..

I took a friends senior pictures last weekend.

We went to this A-mazing town! Gorgeous alleys, lots and lots of old brick buildings, RR tracks, and I think there was a warehouse across the tracks that we didn't even check out!

3 CHEERS FOR DAYLIGHT SAVINGS!!!!!!!!!!

Have a great weekend everybody!!

About squash, projects, and fire-flies among other things...

An airplane flying overhead while we were swimming..

me and my little bro.. He's gonna be a year old in a few weeks...so hard to believe.

----------------------

Pretty yellow squash from the neighbors garden..

 

Super yummy stir-fry I made with onion, pepper, carrots, chicken, and squash..

It would've been good with mushrooms[yum] too but we didn't have any. Maybe next time!

----------------------

Recent spray paint projects::

[left is before: right after] both got painted though..

Handle's that go on a nightstand I painted.

~

I'm only using one knob, but it also goes on the nightstand.

I didn't want just any ole' flat spray paint.

But me and mom found this stuff at WalMart and I really like it..

It has a slight texture to match the style of the nightstand{when its finished i'll to post some pictures}

----------------------

2 sets of one-sided hinges that come from old doors at our house in NY..

~

Old jingle bells. I think we found these in a junk drawer at our house in NY before we moved..

I have no idea where this comes from, but I found it out by dad's tools with other random spray paint.

It really does work!

I used it on the hinges and jingle bells..

Than painted black over that yet.

----------------

One night last week me and the girls caught 2 grasshoppers(I caught those.lol) and around 40 fire-flies.

--------------------------

Last Sunday evening bike ride

{I took these pictures when I biking(some while going down a hill) with my little brother in the seat on the back of the bike}

Random pictures I took on the bike ride..

The flowers pictures were taken infront of The Mill.

And the one through the window is also there.
