brothers and ice cream.

hi, remember me? i used to write on this blog...
anyway.
its been a really long time since i'd gotten my brothers dressed up and taken them out to have a "legit" (i don't know that my photography could be considered legit, but i digress) photo sesh so i decided to take advantage of what would have been the perfect weather (had it not been for the wind) and go down to a nifty little spot here in TX to snap some shots.

the boys did so good that afterwards, we decided to get some ice cream. normally i'd prefer froyo over ice cream any day, however, when it comes to coldstone. i die. there is not much better than coldstone creamery.

{cake batter ice cream with brownie and cookie dough. my absolute fave.

i got addicted to that particular mixture while i was in hair school and its satisfied me every since.}

{do you see any family resemblance?...}

overall it was a lovely weekend. happy monday, dears!

fall+pumpkins=love.

there is something about fall and pumpkins that just make me so content with life. so, this weekend, we hopped on down to one of the local pumpkin patches and had a grand ole' time. there were pumpkins, gourds and squash everywhere! (as well as pony rides, bounce houses, and a hay ride. COZY!)(please ignore the seriously white balanced photos. something was wrong with my camera and i didn't know until i go home and uploaded the photos.)

fall is so cozy. i love.

what'd you do this weekend? and have you entered my give away yet? there's only one more day to enter. you can go here to do so.

go here to see all the photos from my weekend.

a date. {& probably the most random post EVER.}

over the weekend my brother turned 10. as the doting oldest sister i am, i take all of my siblings on one-on-one dates for their birthdays. in this case i took both of my youngest brothers out but they are best friends and basically inseparable and i quite enjoy both of their company so i considered it a treat for myself.
boo, the birthday boy, got to choose where we ate {applebees} and then i treated them to a flick as well {the smurfs - not my favorite movie in the world, but they enjoyed it and that's what's counts}.
we had fun and i can't think of two other boys i'd have rather spent my evening with.

raise your hand if you love poorly lit photos.

yeah, they're my fave too.

no but seriously why do all restaurant photos end up with an orange-y glow to them? how do i avoid that without using my horrendous flash? i'm just all about the natural light.

you know what else i'm all about? 1993.

1993 was the year i got baptized into my church and was also my last year living in Las Vegas, NV. i spent my last year there playing lots of Star Wars and X-Men with my friend, Matthew and my sister. and tuning into Dinosaurs every week.

 that was the life.
