Adventure time!

Adventures with Amber & Kait (see her lovely photos here: www.flickr.com/photos/kaitdowling )! I love these kids. Everytime we go on adventures I keep asking "WHY DO WE NOT DO THIS EVERYDAY!??" And I'm being completely honest, no matter how down on myself or anxious I might be about something, all I need is a car full of gas and good people to keep me company and I feel infinitely better. :)

washing up!

Carnival!

Me & Jenny went to the carnival & rode on the ferris wheel, which was suprisingly terrifying!

I was really really hoping to get one of those Jamacian bananas, but I it was too pricey to play & I do not feel too comfortable throwing darts about. Maybe next year. Also, I hightly recommend listening to the song "Carnival" by the Cardigans before you go the carnival, it will make you feel like eating cotton candy and wearing a girly dress.

I got a brand new pair of roller skates

I've been wanting a pair of rollerskates for the longest time and I finally found a pair at Salvation Army for 2$, hiding under a million helmets and a bowling ball. They were pretty gross before I cleaned them up, but after cleaning them up & putting on some new laces I think they look quite nice! :D I am the most akward, slow skater ever, unfortunately.

summer to do list

My second role of self-processed color film! It's very experimental--I'm only used to developing black and white film, and I was playing around with double exposures. That, plus the fact that when it comes to manual, I don't really know anything about how it...so...yeah.

Jen is usually my hand model =]
