Photo Friday

I've officially been in school 3 weeks, and I can't believe how fast time is flying by. I will admit though, I'm still not completely used to this schedule... hence the lack of posts on here (sorry about that). It's going to be a crazy, busy semester, but I'll keep posting as always. It might get sparse here and there, but I love this too much to give it up. Anyways, I hope you all are having a good Friday so far. It's finally the weekend and I couldn't be more happy.

 It's been a week full of sunsets,

sunrises,

filming,

friends,

and adventures.

Have a wonderful weekend! See you on Monday.

Happy Friday everyone! I hope you've all had a lovely week, but geeze... I'm so happy it's the weekend. It's been a week full of lots of screaming children and therefore a whole lot of naps, and honestly it's been a bit of a blur. I have taken pictures, and I'm still keeping up with my project (here), so there are a few little bits and pieces I can remember. Thank goodness for Instagram.

A little collage from a Braves game that was so hot, but so fun. Check out more pictures here!

I found these awesome plastic bubbles at the Dollar Store and went a little crazy.

Hershey looking very profound & patriotic for the Fourth of July.

The lighthouse was looking very patriotic, too.

You've gotta love a pool day... until the children take over. That's the cue to get the heck out of there.

Took a pit stop at the neighborhood dock on one of my bike rides just in time for the sunset. I don't think I'll ever get tired of that place.

Puppies really do make the best pillows.

The Crepe Myrtles are in full bloom and it makes me so, so happy. Flowers everywhere.

I hope you have a fantastic weekend. Any plans?

Adventures in Annapolis (Day One)

In just a few days, my brother will be graduating from the Naval Academy, so we are here in Annapolis for Commissioning Week. Sunday we spent a whopping 12 hours in the car, so I was pretty happy to have a busy day yesterday. Just a warning, a lot of pictures of the academy are coming your way this week. There's a lot going on, and I'm excited I get to share it with you all!

We got there just in time to see the plebes finally finish the Herndon climb and get the cover to the top-- after an hour and a half of stepping on each other's heads. (read more about the tradition here)

In front of Bancroft Hall. Fun fact: it's the largest dorm in the world.

4 years at USNA, in meme form of course.

I was supposed to go to the Superintendent's Luncheon with the rest of my family, but I dropped my ticket down a crack and it was lost forever. Amanda and I got to walk around the Yard instead.

I made my Mom stop here on the way back to the house to see if I could get the ice cream I talked about here.

THEY HAD IT and it was just as delicious as I remembered. If you ever get the chance to try Hershey's Cappuccino Crunch ice cream I suggest you do it (and let me know how much you love it).

We're all staying at a little beach house that's right on the water,

So we had to go take some pictures while the sun was setting. 

I think I could get used to this.
