A party pooper. and I'm not ashamed to say that it's usually me.
I adore sticking to the plan and loathe being sketchy and getting into messes.
I like following rules and having fun with in limits.
I attend my weekly ppa {party poopers anonymous} meeting
Needless to say I was a little upset about friday not being what I had planned it to be.
The best friend said "Hey let's go to a concert, it'll be a super fun time!"
I was hesitant.
Thinking it was time to put on sweats and curl up to the wonder years
{which I'm currently obsessed with by the way}
I'm quadruple glad I have a friend who isn't afraid to push me out of my comfort zone.
especially when it leads to me have a fabulous time.
(being front row doesn't hurt either)
I have a crush on The Mighty Sequoyah.
They're delightful. and fun. and great. and delightful.
look 'em up if you're unaware.
Yeah, those are signatures, whatcha gunna do about it.
They're not practical. They are old and broken. But being a photographer they make great photo props.
Three vintage suitcases coming to the total of 14$. Me and Ben recently used them in a missionary photo shoot (fun huh?)
Here are some picture's to show you how lovely they (and carly) are!
(i know this one doesn't have suitcases, but its stunning right)
I'm thinking about getting some more and making a suitcase night like such
As I've said before I'm sort of stalled right now, in terms of life. I'm trying to get back into the grooves of things but it's not so...easy, for lack of a better word. I'm going back to school, finding a new home, and a new job. basically it's just a fun time. Thinking so much about where my life is heading and where I want to end up has led me to think about where I started. All my "firsts" kept popping into my head and I thought I'd share with you, bits of me.
