ugly. sweaters that is! I love my IWA girls! They make a crappy day so much better. Last night we had an Ugly Sweater Party! A first for me. :) We had treats, games, and a photo booth. I haven't laughed that much in a long time! It's so fun to get together with girls that are going through pretty much the same things I am going through and laugh and support each other! Love you girls!!

Just some prints I took with dad's film SLR and edited to brighten up a winter day.
Remember spring and fall?
Even winter is sometimes pretty. Don't let it get you down.

Channeling My Inner Garcia

I just deleted a whole post that I wrote because it was boring. I'm kind-of boring. Everyone I know has better stories than me. WAY better dating stories than me. Better New Years goals than me. BUT! I did do something crazy. I channeled my inner Garcia. I died my hair teal.

Thanks to Cousin and 4 hours of heat I have two strips of teal in my hair.
CUTE! Maybe I'm not so boring after all. . .

p.s. sorry i forgot to take an after picture. Now it has mostly washed out! Just believe me that it was cute. And don't ask mom's opinion.
