today, and etcetera.

Hey y'all.

Today has been such a nice day here in Tacoma. The sun is out, we were out and about, mostly for drinks, creamer, and milk. Our windows are open letting the cool breeze in, and I'm sitting right next to my sweets. It feels like I am a kid again, just hanging out at home with bare feet, and just laying down on the couch just watching tv with my family. I'm so happy, and feeling pretty great as of late. Good things are happening at work, John's getting interviews, and hopefully they all love him. Right now my parent's are doing well, they're in Nevada right now for my grandmother's memorial, but despite that everything is well with everyone. My Dad even hinted at the want to move up north. Not necessarily Washington, but somewhere up here. So, that will be nice for when they become Grandparents. 

Some people whom I am so dang proud of are my in-laws. I MEAN! I am so dang happy for them, because I love seeing John's mom post little things about how her, and his dad go to the gym together, and how they have so much fun going together, and quite frankly I think it's freakin' adorable.

waffle cone goodness^^^ !!


So, an average day off is usually spent going shopping for the apartment, and just not really doing a whole lot. Lately though... last week we went to the Museum of Glass, which was night, and then today, was just so refreshing. Like it literally feels fresh up in the apartment. We have a candle going, windows open, music playing, and just ah, so nice. Everything is turning even more green than it already is too! Like trees, good job, do yo thang.

Today I drank iced sweet tea, got some bamboo spatulas/spoons, ate pot stickers, and cleaned up a little. I am probably going to do laundry, and just do that for the rest of the day, maybe. It really feels like things are starting to finally fit into our days better. We are making sure things are paid off, saving (slowly), and just really respecting, loving, and supporting everything we do. I'm so excited for the future with work, the advancement that I somewhat mentioned in this post is going into play! So, weeee!

Mama in-law. If you're reading this I promise to take more photos, and, AND we'll get out and explore more.

You guys, HAVE LOVE, be happy, fearless, and brave. 

Mumford & Sons, Gentlemen of the Road.

On Sunday June 2nd, around golden hour was when we headed off to the San Manuel Amphitheater. Naturally we forgot a few items such as, the tickets, and of course, my camera. It was very frustrating to say the least, but somehow we made it, with the tickets, and no camera. We were able to find my friends, somehow, in the mass of 30,000 plus people. It was crazy business. They were right behind a speaker, which wasn't the best place, so we moved to the back. Of course we couldn't see much of the stage, but we got a beautiful view of the sunset, and the mountains. When Mumford & Sons came on it was absolutely wonderful, they started off with Lovers Eyes, which sounded so perfect, and definitely was a great opening song. I really don't have any words to describe how perfect the concert was, except for the fact that they sounded so beautiful, and it was all that I expected. I got to see one of my favorite bands, be with John, and hang with friends who I've missed. Therefore it was a great evening. Have love.

A Self Portrait

So, for school I had to do this "Self Portrait" project. It said that you had to express who you were, what you you were doing, what your goals are, and how you were going to get there. I decided that I wanted to take the project quite literally. I had John, my boyfriend, take the portraits of me that are above. I am pretty pleased with how all the photos came out, and I'm happy with how I did in the presentation, even if I was a little bit nervous. If you couldn't tell already, John has a natural talent when it comes to photography, and I really admire that quality in him. It's so nice to have found someone so amazing, similar, and loving to me. I don't think I could have ever found anyone else who is like him, and I am forever thankful for him.

Photo Credit to John for the self portraits.

Why I have been M.I.A

I don't think these photos alone will describe why I have been gone, because they're just photos that I took, and that John took while I haven't been posting. I haven't been doing a whole lot up until 2 weeks ago? Because I've been helping John recover from his surgery, which I did not mind doing at all, but it really didn't leave any time for us to go out, or put on much of a happy face. BUT everything is all up to speed now with school, and my life goals, and I can't wait to post more and more!

I am not all done up in these photos, so, say hello to my bare face!
