july!

july started in omaha with adventures, jedi council meetings, concrete tubes, wall to wall beds, and crazy good food. 6 girls, 2 air mattresses, and 2 couches = endless fun.





then we spent some good afternoons in the west bottoms, and celebrated bastille day with even more borrowed patriotism than last year. crepes for everyone!








later july was spent in indiana with the best hummus, many cookies, and much more america's next top model. we learned a lot about posing and what not, then binge-watched bravest warriors and ate donuts like true models. also note the best blueberries I've ever eaten pounds of in just 24 hours. picked fresh from a blueberry ranch and everything.

bring it on august!

friday the 13th.

a full moon on friday the 13th called for a little pirating and more cake eating.

rainy day miyazaki party.

Kiki's Delivery Service, red bows, pancakes, and black cats. it was the best way to spend a rainy evening. trust me.

welcome june.

just the best late night mac and cheese, a little fruit painting, and donut day. I'm okay with this kinda summer.

summertime.

we kicked off summer break with an impromptu welcome summer party. stripes, crowns, cake, and garlands were on the list for obvious reasons.





also I've been playing with little paintings of my favorite things, and making killer cover art for mixtapes.

happy summer!

season of the tradition checklist.

time to break the blog silence I suppose.
in the past week we've made commendable progress on our extensive list of fall traditions, and we visited the Nelson again! (the grounds that is. we only had a tuesday to offer and the museum scoffs at tuesday goers and locks the doors. rude)




we spent some quality time at the pumpkin patch eating hot dogs and roasted marshmallows, giant pickles, and whatnot. tasty cider slushies also happened. when sufficiently stuffed for the moment, we picked out our perfect pumpkins with our favorite little pumpkin, then grabbed many apples and headed home for massive amounts of homemade spaghetti and meatballs and cheesecake. naturally.







today, after massive amounts of barbecue etc. and more celebrating, we carved our perfect pumpkins. though some may say we got carried away with the space references on our moon pumpkin, I think it's total perfection. =) we even shared the joy of making stars in the pumpkin with a screwdriver. too much fun.
