Weekly Wrap-Up | Photo A Day

Here is the weekly wrap-up from 7/14-7/20!



7/14 Old School: The neighbors up north had an old 90s style jet-ski with the splatter pattern in bright neon colors. What is more old school than that?!

7/15 Torn: It was too cold and rainy to swim, so we went to Short's Brewing Company in Bellaire, Michigan. I was torn between these 2 shirts for C, but ended up getting a completely different one anyway. Go figure.

7/16 Listening To...: I was sitting at the end of the dock, listening to the water move and the birds chirping. It was idyllic and precious.

7/17 Sunshine: This is a precious picture of my oldest niece, E. The sun flare is great, and I love that she took it herself



7/18 Admire: I got new glasses. I was admiring them in this awkward selfie I took. Can't wait for them to come in!

7/19 Curly: it was late at night and I never took my picture...we were at a bar with someone who had curly hair, so I sneakily (not really) took this picture, taking care to just attempt to capture the curls. Not my best, but I got it done. #weaksauce

7/20 Moment: I was about to have a great moment where I read a book and munched on some caramel corn. Perfection.

Weekly Wrap-up | photo.a.day


Another weekly wrap up for the books! These are photos from 6/14-6/18 and all of them are from while I am in Florida visiting family! The prompts are from Fat Mum Slim and her photoaday challenge, check it out!




14. cross. i took this picture at an origami owl party (google it). i was at my sisters friends house and as we were walking out the door, i saw this pretty cross hanging in her hallway...so i creepily took a picture of it. 

15. lovely. now, i am in the minority here, but i don't like to be hot. hot = sweaty = annoyed esther. BUT, being in the water when it is hot out is lovely. so i took a picture of the empty lounge chairs at the pool.

16. in the shadows. we were at the beach, little talbot island state park, and i pretty much stayed in the water the whole time. but when i wasn't in the water, i was in the shadows under the beach umbrella.

17. peaceful. this is my sisters cat, minnow. he was being super snuggly and napping. 

18. quirky. this is my 6 year old niece, E. she is a quirky kid, she always wears socks up to her knees to go to bed, she has a super specific way that her bed needs to be made and she hates kisses (sad face).

Stay tuned for the next weekly wrap-up!!!

High Five for Friday | link-up




Once again, will be linking up at thelaurenelizabeth.com! Hope everyone had a great week, mine was full of water and fun activities with family in Florida! 

1. 
We went to beautiful little talbot island state park on Monday. The weather was perfection, the water was crystal clear and so refreshing. I got sunburned (*shakes fist*) but it was still a great day spent playing mermaids.

2. 
 
 
My sister and her husband went away for the night, a much needed mini-vacation for the two of them. I happily babysat these two cuties-I love the opportunity to help my sister out AND have quality time with my favorite nieces!

3. 
I have been able to have some snuggles with this cutie. He may bat at my feet all night long, but he is cute so I allow it.

4. 
We went to Aquatica in Orlando -- it's a few hours away so while i did not take my phone into the park, I did snap this car selfie on the drive down.

5. I also went bridesmaid dress shopping with my sister and oldest niece. We had a "special" day with E, and hit up some stores and did some wedding thangs. 6 months away...oy vey!
