Such great heights
it's such a shame that we take the places we grew up around for granted. seriously, i've lived around these parts for most of my life and i've only discovered the beauty of Maryland Heights in my adult life. i can only count in one hand the amount of times i've been up there. on a recent nice day, Shane and i took a hike up there and had our share of fun exploring the area.
have you been up there?

cute baby pt. 2
last fall, i was lucky enough to meet Josie and her parents. i was even more lucky to have gotten the opportunity to capture a photograph of her standing up for the first time. she recently turned one and they came back to let me photograph them for the second time. this time, i set up a cute little picnic for them in a secluded spot decked out with cupcakes and balloons.
what a fun little shoot it was. Josie is a lot more active now...but i guess it comes with being one and the whole family is a treat to photograph.

i am a robot!
my little buddy and i made a cardboard robot the other day out of found items. we went around to a local business with our little red wagon and picked up boxes, recycled goods, and extra craft supplies from my place and went to work!
we ended up with a happy boy and a dapple robot.
i love this little kid!

thrifting!!
i've been so lucky to have found so many cameras to add to my ever growing collection (hoarding). most of these cameras were under $8...with exception to the Canon AE-1. i'm lucky and most of these still work! some of them came with film in them! i just cannot wait to finish the roll and get them developed!
do you have a collection?

our adventure
on Saturdays, Shane and i like to go thrifting. i'd say it's one of our favorite hobbies together. his mom used to take him with her when he was little, and i'm just a hoarder. we've found so many great treasures and deals...i'll have to remember to take photos of them and share!
yesterday, we decided to pack up my whole camera collection and went on an impromptu adventure as it was his birthday. we didn't get to take any photos of my collection...but i took other photos and i wanted to share!
fun times!

what we make
happy Friday everyone! before i go back to work, i just wanted to pop in and show you what's being made around these parts.
last night, Meg made delicious S'More cookies! they were so good!
Shane finished his electric cigar box guitar out of a vintage cigar box that he thrifted for a couple of dollars and some found supplies. this guy is uber talented, but doesn't want anyone to know about it, so SHHHH! he actually carved the handle himself! it sounds so good hooked up to the amp.
and today, your's truly made a dinosaur tail with little C as my helper. he got distracted after a little while, so i had to finish it up all by myself, but i'm certainly not complaining. C is completely into his dino phase and loves anything T-Rex related, so when i saw this tutorial mentioned on Craftzine's blog, i totally jumped on it!\
it was so adorable i want to make more!
hope everyone's having a fantastic Friday. off to work i gooo!

26
yesterday, i turned 26. i still feel the same as when i turned 23. except i'm a lot more achy and i just figured out that i could only eat a row of the Samoa cookies instead of a whole box in one sitting. (it's getting too sweet for my poor teeth.)
i'm not really big on birthdays so i just went about my day. slept in, worked, yoga, followed by a nice and quiet dinner with my work friends, and ended with a 3 way call with my besties. it was stress free and no one got hurt. a good start to 26 for sure.

where have i been?
dear friends. unfortunately, i've had a string of bad luck. i've been sick for nearly a week (it's on it's way out, but man! it has been annoying!) and my computer got a virus! ICK! (it's away getting fixed as we speak) on my only day off, it has been raining and dreary. that's ok though, Meg and i have turned to the tube and started a movie marathon. we just finished watching Pan's Labyrinth and are about to watch the Big Lebowski. i'm sipping on a bubbly coke with Remy nestled in my lap, there could be nothing better right this minute.
