i heart faces - beach fun!

entering a photo challenge on i heart faces using this fun photo from hawaii. it's still one of my favorite pictures i have taken.
keep your fingers crossed i win! :)

finally!

it's been officially 50 days since this little baby moved away from me.
how have i not gone crazy? or have i??
but i am off to spend every second with her, and my other favorites (brandon+robyn), as the fam heads down to cali for a WEEK for the birth of my nephew! hooray!
don't you worry, i'll post pictures of him soon. let's hope she has him while we're down there!

chairs: re-done!

i am FINALLY getting around to painting the furniture i bought LAST summer.
since i'm moving and don't have the room to take it all with me, i am selling it all :(
but if you see something you like, let me know!

today's post features two very cute vintage chairs.

from a boring natural wood to a creamy light gray.


and of course i forgot to take a before picture of my favorite one! this vintage chair has a seat covered in rope, which i covered in a sky blue paint. this chair is more for decoration because it might be a little ouchie to sit on. but i think it would be adorable next to a bed with some cute vintage books piled on the seat!


these are both for sale, contact me if interested in purchasing one, or both!
(discount for purchasing both)

BIG news

incase you haven't heard...

i'm moving to the beach!!!
well... california.

kind of excited to get out of utah, and have some adventures of my own.
if you live in utah, i will miss you.
if you live in cali, let's be friends.

i'm peacing out september 10th. but, i'm thinking of doing a bbq or some type of get together before i head out, so keep the 9thish free. ok deal.

ahhh summer

i don't understand why summer can't last for 8 months of the year.
nothing beats a night bike ride, or just laying on a blanket on a warm night.
summer, you are perfect.
