i don't know what they are.

we have the most beautiful little fall flowers blooming in our yard. i don't know what kind of flower they are (my grandma could tell you!) but they sure do make me happy. its nice to know that while everything is changing and dying and getting ready to hunker down for the winter, some things are still beautiful and bright and cheerful.

don't get me wrong, i love the fall. in fact, its my most favorite season. but for some reason these little flowers in my front yard just make me smile.

♥dallas in bloom.

this weekend, when my sister and i went to the Art Institute of Dallas for our tour, we stopped in at Whole Foods for breakfast before the tour.

{honey flavored Greek yogurt, my favorite. nom nom.}

they had the most beautiful flowers there, all in full bloom. i wanted to take them all home with me!

{"and i'm like 'thanks a heap coyote ugly, this cactus stinks almost as much as your abandonment'."}

i was never one of those girls who was all bitter and said "i hate getting flowers from men. they just die" yeah, number one that just shows me you've probably never received flowers from a man and secondly, yes, they do just die. but for the short time that you have them, they are beautiful and bright and hopeful and happy and they represent someone caring for you.

how could you not like that?

blck.

guys, i am down in the dumps.

its been a fun week, but its been a stressful week.

do you ever just get in those moods where you feel like crying for no reason?

that is how i've felt today.

didn't want to get out of bed,

didn't want to talk too many people,

didn't want to do much of anything.

basically just... melancholy.

i need a pick me up.

something like:

{ice cream}

rocky road ice cream is my FAVE but it has to be the kind with the real marshmallows. none of this marshmallow swirl crap. we're talkin' bout the real deal here.

{flowers}

okay so i know flowers just die, but i love them.

{happy music}

owl city is my happy music at the moment. mika would work too though.

{hugs}

i'll take cuddling too.

or, of course,

{cupcakes}

from 25 main please.

i hope you guys had a spectacular week.

because you deserve it.

think of a wonderful thing,

 

{here is where i got the: flowers, and owl city. the rest were from weheartit.com which SIDE NOTE! instantly put me in a better mood when i went there and saw this first off}:

can you spot what made me smile? if so then you know me too well. =]

if not, let me help you out:
