Exploring around Town

Hello everyone! This, will be my last adventure before the assignment is turned in. It won't however be my last adventure. Anyway, I went over to Erica's house and we did a little walking around town. Seeing as I've never really gone off on my own in town, this was kind of a big exploration. Who knew we could stumble upon so many picture-worthy things? 

The generic girl photo. -sigh- But still, our shoes kind of represent us? Maybe? 

Julia was there. AKA- White flip flops. 


As was Erica...obviously.

And Maja!

And so we set off, on an adventure for Ice Cream, shopping and any other fun things we find along the way.

First Stop: Marion's!

90 dollar sunglasses. Fun stuff. After seeing the price tag we decided this really wasn't the store for us.

So we went to Coldstone's!








Obviously I got chocolate! And for an added twist, I got some crunched crunch bars on top.
The ice cream was amazing!
Then we left.
So then we continued to walk. 
And dance. 
And tie our shoes :]

As we were walking, I kept stopping to take pictures of the flowers and trees around us. It was so pretty, and while slightly irrelevant, I decided to share the photos with you.





I love how you can see Maja and Erica in the background!


As we were walking back we saw this mural of doors. Julia and Maja both lunged for it. Maja pushing Julia away in the process. I was surprised I caught this, but I'm glad I did!

Was it worth it Maja?!?!

After all that, we continued walking.




...And now we goof off...

Pretend to be super heroes..

Make faces at Amy..

Kartwheel..


Then we got to see Erica's dogs! After about 100 bad pictures of them, I got to these:







And at the end of the day, everybody pretty much did this...



Sigh. Oh well. People just don't appreciate how seriously I take my projects ;)

And on the way home, the sun was setting and I pulled out my camera for some more pictures. 

My dad has a dream catcher hanging from his car mirror. And while I hope he doesn't ever fall asleep while driving, I decided it would make for a really cool picture with the scenery around. I like it anyways :]

Bye everyone! Happy Adventures! Mine were great, and I've had a lot of fun with them. Not only has this helped my photography skills, but I've also learned a lot about myself and about the kinds of things I like taking pictures of. I've learned to be a little more consistent with my blogging and to find adventure and happiness in the little things. I also have a large collection of pictures to look back on when I get older, and start to care about what I was like and the kinds of things I used to do. 

Off to my next adventure :]

Hello out there! So, today I decided to make some Valentine's Day cards since February's coming up, and I don't know how much time I'll have then. So here they are! 


Sorry this one is sideways. Tilt your head? I had gotten black ink on it by mistake so I had to put more on it to make it look like it was supposed to be there. I'm still debating whether or not I like it...

This one is smaller, but most valentine goodies are. The stamps were actually some that I had found from when I was about 7! They came in those cute little packages and were super tiny. 

This is my favorite.



Went a little crazy on this one with doodles. 



And that's all for now! 

See you on my next adventure.
