good day sunshine

i know that i am
very happy
when i have to go to work
for 8 hours,
yet i'm still in a good mood.
really though,
do you ever have those days
when you feel like
nothing can bring you down?

it is no secret that i don't like cheese

in my opinion,
the words 
squeaky and cheese
should never be used together.

goodbye beach, hello jimmy johns

although i am going home
whiter than i came
(thank you overcast skies),
i loved being by the sea.
i'd be lying if i said 
i wasn't a little excited to leave
considering there is
a turkey tom at home
with my name on it.

pink straws


is anyone else
loving 
the pink straws at mcdonalds
as much as i am?
they do crack
a bit easier
than the regular ones,
but to that i say
it's worth it.

water, water everywhere but not a drop to drink


i love most things about california.
the beaches,
the shopping,
and the fact that i can run forever
and not get tired.
but why is it,
that there is a sandwich shop
on every corner,
yet not one of them
is jimmy's?
to say i'm having withdrawals
would be an understatement.
...
i'd pay top dollar
for a turkey tom w/ easy mayo.

kelsey


my brother proposed tonight 
and i couldn't be happier.
i love love love this girl
with every nook and cranny of my heart.

shelter island


dinner at shelter island
was scrumptious.
i fell in love
with this little bird,
i named him chump.
then we got my favorite ice cream ever.
i love it because 
my grandpa would take me there
after our days at the beach
when i was a little girl.

but they serve a 
mean frozen yogurt.

family dinner 
the night before.

ringo to come.

simple pleasures


 

we
traveled north
for the 4th of july
to island park, idaho.
it was a great
weekend getaway.
oh how i loved the
canoeing
fireworks
naps
and food.
...
however,
i think 
the mosquitos in idaho
are immune to bug spray.
