This weekend Aaron&I along with our good friends Miranda&Shawn spent our lovely Friday wondering about the Birmingham Galleria. We had a pretty fun little day filled with carousel riding, cookie eating, and picture taking! 

SO EXCITEEEDDD

YUM :)

So it was just so good it needed its own post.
 While in Montgomery last week Miranda and I took a little trip to Nancy's to get some yummy Italian ice :)

Mango, eh.

Blue Rasberrrryyy :)

best friends make the best valentines

For that day yesterday best friend and I decided to go road trippin' to Montgomery, AL. A short little day trip but filled with unexpected adventure that made for a great February 14, 2011.

WE...

Did some goose chasing at Shakespeare Park

Visited Grace Episcopal Church. If you have a fascination/obsession with church architecture then this place is for you. Not to mention the backyard playground with a tree house and rope swing :)

Ate some Tomatinos, YUM :)

But of course, ended the day with a lovely gift from a wonderful boy.
Meet, Artie.

botany

 This weekend best friends, Miranda and Allyn, along with our lovely friend-boy's went on somewhat of a triple date to the Botanical Gardens. Even though it's the dead of winter and all the plants are dead, it was still sunny and we found ways to enjoy one of God's beautiful LITTLE GIFTS called nature.

gettin crafty

In honor of everyone's favorite holiday(PAH!) coming up best friend, Miranda, and I decided to get crafty. Insipired by Chrsitina Perri's song Jar of Hearts, we made our own "jars of hearts".

On our handmade hearts are quotes, reminders, words, and anything about anything that reminds us of love. Of course this is an on going creation to keep memories, thoughts, ideas,quotes, and realizations bottled up forever and ever. And...it's just cool. SO if you love our little art project and want to be a copy cat here are some simple instructions and needed materials.

What you'll need:

• jar
• red and white construction paper
• scissors
• markers
• brain, books, computers, memories

Instructions:

1. Gather anything and everything that defines love to you(everyone has their own personal definition)
2. draw a heart on your paper; any size will do
3. write your love down
4. put it in the jar

WOW that was easy.

music, chill. chill music.

Last night some friends and I went to one of the many hidden treasures of Birmingham to listen to some great local music. SO GO.

To The Red Cat

just one of those little things to enjoy.

the dragon layer

Last night some friends and I got together to have some fun. The night turned into a flashback to adolescence as we built a fort made out of sheets, chairs, and duck tape then piled inside to watch one of the greatest cartoons of all time, How To Train Your Dragon. Sure it wasn't the most beautiful tent you've ever seen, but it got the job done and made for some really great memories.

We were having too much fun.

Yes, a movie can change your life.

I don't even feel like I need to say anything about this. Just go see it.
