Happy Hump Day!

I don't have time to do a proper update before work, so good morning from Stevie and my owl slippers! More on Stevie this Friday, stay tuned! ^.^

A Gorgeous Grand Rapids Autumn Morning

Andrew and I volunteered for the United Way 5K in downtown Grand Rapids the other morning. It was so hard to wake up after a long day of moving (with more moving to be done later that day), but it was so worth it because it was a gorgeous morning (and Starbucks was open early, thank goodness)! Here are just a few shots we took while waiting for the runners to race by:

 Hey, it's not so cold out here! And have you tried the Anniversary blend? It really is kinda spicy!

 We were stationed at the Sixth Street Bridge. Not really an area of GR I have been in, but so pretty!

Pretty city.

 Hey, cutie pie.

 When I told him to smile.

 When I tried telling him to frown. Look at the pretty fall tree!!!

 Boy band wannabe.

After a day of moving, no shower, not enough sleep. Rejuvenated by the beautiful morning: )

Happy Wednesday! They are just about to talk about women using Old Spice on the Today Show, which is what I use! Women's deodorant doesn't cut it for me: / Now I don't feel so weird!

In the Morning

it's going to be a beautiful and exciting day! i just know it. i'm getting ready right now and then hopefully the day will go a little like this: farmer's market, gluten free food fair, seeing my friend josh who just moved here, weeding a little bit outside, having some beers on our front porch with our friends brad and kate, and who knows what else! for now i'll leave you with some film photos of one of my cats (who lives with my parents, not me), ellie! she's such a pretty girl.

and now it's coffee time! hope you enjoy your saturday: )
