On my birthday and the 4th of July

So, as of a few days ago, I am officially an adult in the USA. BOOYA!!

The Sketch Pad of Awesomeness

Gel Pens of Awesomeness.

A couple of adorable journals. (apparently, I'm going to be journaling a lot this year)

PERFECT SCOUNDRELS!!!!!!!! (already finished it. It was awesome. I love Hale.)

HUNTER HAYES ENCORE!! I about passed out with that one.

Yeah.... my family rocks. It's just fantastic having a a big family.... so many pressies on birthdays, you guys. Hahaha!

Anyway, moving on. The 4th of July was epic. It always is. I mean duh. I was there. *grins cheekily*

I went all patriotic and wore the good ol' red, white, and blue, even going so far as to paint the fingernails. (I never paint mah fingernails.)

So, I read Perfect Scoundrels all morning, until everyone came over and the fun began for real. Hee! I made peanut butter and banana smoothies, and they were very awesome. *nods*

   I took pictures of the little girls hula-hooping.....

And drew a little in the Sketch Pad of Awesomeness.

And read a bit more.

Reading is a big thing with us.

It was so hot, you guys. Too hot to do anything active during the afternoon except sit and talk.

And eat. We must have food to have fun. It is the way of the family.

Or play in the kiddie pool.

When it cooled down, however, we played badminton. Wooooot!

I make such stupid faces when I play.

That game was so exciting, look at how exciting it was!!

ICE COLD WATERMELON!!!!!

We finished off the day with a bonfire, and s'mores and storytelling. (it was about fairies, and a knight, and a dragon, and an evil guardian, and then we stopped.)

I take terrible selfies. *grumble grumble*

All in all, it was a grand and glorious day. I get all all, "AMERICA! RA! RA!" on the 4th of July.

I'm American and proud of it. So there. :)

So, how was your 4th? I want to know!!

Cheers and God bless!

Thrifted outfit. =)

FIVE RANDOM FACTS:


1.) I love mini coopers, they're super cute.

2.) And Land Rovers. I love Land Rovers!

3.) Shawn Spencer from Psych is absolutely hilarious.

4.) I hate acting. I am a horrible actress. Acting, for me, is a huge humiliation.

5.) I am defo in the mood for an iced coffee. **sigh** If only we had more milk.


     So, the other day, my mom and I went to a thrift store and I found a dress I just couldn't not buy. It reminds me of the fifties.... and it was only four bucks. Woot!

     So then, I was in the mood for a photo shoot. Luckily, my little sister was very cooperative and took the pictures for me.

     Isn't it a-dor-able?

                                   Photo shoots are fun. =)

     I don't wear dresses very often. I just.... don't usually wear them, I prefer skirts. But this one I liked, I think it was the belt that did it.

     And I really like polka-dots.

   

Woot woot!

Happy belated Easter to everyone. =) I hope it good?

This is what I wore on Easter... and I have to admit, wearing a "prom-ish" dress does wonders for making a girl feel pretty:

Isn't it cute? AND it was only five bucks. Beat that.

     I now know how to do four and five strand braids. And they are awesome. And (surprisingly) super simple actually, I got it on my first try. THIS is a really well done tutorial. I think that the five strands make the braid special and really pretty....but I'm not sure how how well it'll suit for really thick hair, because it makes your hair look thicker.

                           Thanks to Poodle for the use of her hair

 I'm currently infatuated with these guys: Or...more accurately, the middle guy. So back off.... he's mine. LOL

                               

                        Oh yes. I  need to buy their CD. Seriously. :)

    There. I have posted. And that's it for now. 'Till next time then! God bless.
