honeyed time




day 145

It's been a lazy, rainy day. I spent most of it sitting on the couch and cleaning. Photoshop CS6 came in the mail but thus far installation has proven unsuccessful. The error message says that the installer has failed to initialize. Has anyone else had this problem? It's frustrating because I want to do so much that I can only complete with photoshop and not having it work is pretty discouraging. We shall see if it works in the upcoming days. My dad is troubleshooting as I type.

Batonga 30 Day Dress Challenge: Day Twenty Four



the dress: as dress // shirt: mother's closet // cardigan: target // shoes: forever 21 // ear cuff: icing




Sunny yesterday, rainy today. Sadly the rain is more well known in the summer than mister sun. Hence not very many photos today. Though the usual rain is just showers, risking my camera's life was not on my list of things to do. It was cold, so I wore the dress long and layered it with my trusty heavy cardigan. Now I'm so warm and cozy even when getting rained on.

I'm wearing this dress for an entire month to raise money for the Batonga Foundation, which supports girls in Africa by giving them a full education. You can read more about it here! Every little bit helps.
Thank you and have an awesome day!

Batonga 30 Day Dress Challenge: Day Twenty Three

+ 365



the dress: as dress // socks/shoes: forever 21



While at the mall my friend said it was finally sundress season, so I decided to keep things simple and let the dress stand alone. With warm temperatures even into the late hours of the night and the midnight sun still shining overhead, sometimes simplicity is better. Today almost seemed like summer.



day 144






It was mostly a quiet day, driving people around and spending some time at the mall, then returning home to build tents and play board games and run around outside. The finale for American Idol was tonight. I cried over the proposal and I have no idea who the happy couple was. I just love seeing people love and be in love.








The dress challenge is almost over, but there's still time to donate to the Batonga Foundation, which supports girls in Africa by giving them a full education. You can read more about it here! Every little bit helps.
Thank you and have an awesome day!

our colors matched our names



day 143



I pushed my luck to see if Nicholas was willing to pose for another photo, and he did! It was so much fun hanging out with him for just a little bit. He would burp in between shots and I would run around trying to pick loose grass while the random lady across the street stared at us.

Here are some behind the scenes shots. They just make me laugh so much and I had to share them:
