back to the woods.

Amanda and I had a camera adventure in the woods last fall, just for fun, and we decided to repeat the event and maybe make it a tradition. Because there's nothing like being idiots in the middle of a forest when you've got a camera with self-timer. 

  

Didn't quite beat the timer on this one.

Why yes, I do levitate on occasion.

And now, I will demonstrate the journey of a common winter leaf.

The end.

many happy returns.

My brother's 11th birthday.

Lord of the Rings marathon/Korean feast with Priscilla in Dallas. 

Priscilla!

Got a tattoo for my 21st.

The final product. I am permanently lionhearted.

A birthday present I made for Katie. Painted a flower pot, topped it with cupcake roses...

...filled it with chocolate! Not pictured: a coffee mug, which was also filled with surprises.

Birthday flowers - a surprise from my mom.

My little cake. We could barely fit 21 candles on it.

My baby. 

Thanksgiving.

Molly is very interested in the newest additions to our household. A 12-piece chicken nugget meal to go.

Bonnie.

Oh, the cuteness.
