tafting with adrie and april 

This weekend I finally got some much needed Vitamin D. I literally haven't seen the sunlight pretty much all summer! Some friends and I went to Lake Travis on Saturday. The lake is the lowest I have ever seen, so many islands! After being crispified, we went to Ape's and had pizza while watching the OC. I LOVE THE OC. Judge me if you want, Seth Cohen will always have my heart. 

I just love Adrie and April. April and I always just get each other. I love her so deep. I'm just really grateful that I have been able to have a friendship with her friends from school because that is so rare. Adrie is seriously the bomb and I have grown to really love her. Totally awesome fun times to be had with those two. Can NOT wait to go to Chicago again in the fall to visit them!!! :)

Also, today Micah informed me that he pooped in the dug out at one of his baseball games......how? Gross. That kid keeps me young.

{Independence Day!}

Happy 4th of July!!! I love wearing red white and blue. And I really love American flags. So grateful our country was founded on biblical principles. So thankful for freedom!! 

P.S.-  April and I painted our nails alternating colors--Red, White, Blue--with sparkles. Awesome.

{YES}

This video makes me just want to scream SUMMER!!!!!!! 
Also, it has so many colors and glow in the dark (eeeeek!). Reason #247 & 248 why I love Coldplay.

Challenge: listen to this while driving home from work, school, pool or anything with the windows down. Just scream! It feels awesome. This one's for you Bo...

{Summer Lovin'}

Dear Frozen Mini Reeses, we have a love-hate relationship. Right now, I hate you. Dear Barton Springs, your subzero water temperature makes laying out bearable but Apey doesn't like your "floaties" (fungi, algae) so we won't be back this summer. Dear Boot-campers, seeing you raise your hands during worship makes me cry. Dear Little Brothers, thanks for acting like you were embarrassed that I visited. I know you loved it. Dear Andrew Wommack, listening to you while working has made the hours quite meaningful. Dear Summer, I love you.

{Dreamlights}

Okay watch these. When I watched them, I muted the video and was listening to Beautiful Things by Gungor. Bo showed me these videos and I'm obsessed. How did he know I would be? I

Here's the story. It's like real life Tangled!!!!!

{She's here]

APEY HAS A BLOG!
Yippee skippee my best-es-test friend in the world made a blog! Finally.
You should read it. Because she is, hands down, the most hilarious person I know.
Here is our most recent photo together at her precious brother's wedding!
I wish I could describe how much you mean to me, Ape. You're the bee's knees :)
I love you oh-so-dearly!!

{Us and Our Daughters}

I know, I have had a lot of posts about music lately but here's another!! 

I have a lot of time to listen to music while I'm working on mi computadora. 

I also have a lot of time finding new bands I love.

Homies- these peeps are good. Go buy their album? Worth it. My fav is "Honey."

P.S.- The ACL lineup is up. I'm going. Friday. Coldplay AND Ray? I swoon. $90 never sounded so cheap. Happy Birthday to ME!

Summer playlist.

In honor of Bo's birthday, {Insert singing happy 24th birthday}, I have made the summer playlist!  You can go here if you want to listen to it on Grooveshark. I will say that it's not perfect. 

It has both chill music and music I like to call "hype." 

I just wanted to give Bo a little present for his special day, hope you like it :) 

Here it is on iTunes. This version is more chill. 

Happy listening! 

P.S- this was my study break mom, I promise.

when it rains.

My favorite thing about rain in the summertime is the smell after rain hits the hot concrete. Makes me not want to wear shoes.

Also, and this has nothing to do with anything, but I just remembered that I had a dream last night where I saw Will Smith and Lebron James. COOL RIGHT!? I have really profound dreams.

take it easy.

I encountered one of those moments on friday that makes you feel alive:

Listening to Take it Easy with the top down, in a jeep, with a coke in my hand, on the way to the pool.

Just one of those times that makes you think....I was made for this.

I love being outside, even if I am drenched in sweat.
