a tuesday in seattle

Wednesday, March 28, 2012


















A three hour drive listening to a cd mix I made my sister lingered in the background while everyone else was fast asleep. Water droplets than snow fell upon the large windshield. I watched the wipers go back and forth as the snow filled the outside of the car. thankfully upon our arrival the sky cleared and Seattle seemed like the perfect place to be. With a quick trip to the American Girl Doll store, for Ky and maybe for my sisters and mine own enjoyment, we were headed to lunch. We walked a lot in the cold air. and settled for a restaurant on the Sound that we knew served a warm cup of clam chowder. That cup of clam chowder was the perfect touch to our cold day. We than reembarked to the cold weather and walked the streets for some time. Even a 'Ride the Duck' passed and I was eager for summer to come so I could finally experience the life of a true tourist in Seattle. Shopping was practically the only thing left for us to do, and I obliged eagerly. The sun began to slowly set and we were off again back to the city where we all felt more familiar with. A stop for greasy mexican food warmed us all up again. then again we were all at my sisters house reflecting on the day we went to Seattle just to go to the American girl store. It was worth it.

oh hello.

this place is beautiful

This Place is Beautiful, is a series I am starting.
I feel like once you see beauty in the small thing it can completely change you.
You really start seeing beauty in the most simplistic of things.
anything from a wild flower blowing in the seventy degree western air or a giggle coming from a boy-crazy eleven year old. 
I started with the place most familiar to me, my hometown.
Welcome to Merit, TX.
When you drive through Merit, you might not say, this place is beautiful. 
But once you take your mind off material things.
Its such a beautiful little town in East Texas.
Enjoy these photos.
  
 

i like love you.

My dad's 50th brithday was amazing!
He had absolutely no idea about all the suprises in store!
My sister even came 2,000 miles to join in on his special day! (or month? tomapalooza)

My dad is the absolute best & no words could ever explain how much I love him!
He really has let me be myself! Regardless if its my ever changing hair color or my choice of religion. He has been there, through all my major changes that life brings. & he was the one who stayed by my side through everything. which today I am so thankful for.

I'm thankful I was blessed with him as my daddy & I could never ask for anything more.
Happy birthday dad.
