Snow!

View from our window this morning

Blessed sunshine! Thank you March. Miss Evelyn and I have been on several walks, now that the weather has finally gotten warm. Of course she just falls asleep as soon as I put her in there but I enjoy it immensely. It's so nice being able to just go outside for a little bit instead of being cooped up inside the house all day. It gets old. Fast. Today we walked over to the park close to our house and walked around the track several times. It was so fun to see all the little kids playing on the playground. It got me a little excited for when Evelyn is that age and we can have fun on the playground too.

But for now, I will push my little girl who is asleep in her stroller to my hearts content.

Yesterday night, this happened.

Jake and I finished our last engagement shoot yesterday and we had so. much. fun!

Loved the people I worked with. We got some pretty awesome shots.

And the weather? Can you say B-ea-utiful?! Seriously both Monday and Tuesday were THE perfect days to take pictures. We will receive them next Friday so I gotta be patient. Which I am so not good at. It's something I'm working on no worries.

Getting my nails done with my G-ma for the first time. Doing a pre test before bridal pictures. No fake nails for me though.

Can't handle them.

Now THIS is what Autumn should feel like. Still a little chilly, but the beautiful sun is out and shining.

Not thirty four degrees and snowing.

So I'm thinking the rain has got to stop. At least for a couple of days so I can go swimming!

Granted, I'm not ready for 90+ degree weather but a little sunshine would be nice.

Please?

Forget about slushing. It's snowing and the flakes are huge! I saw little kids in their snow gear playing outside and it made me want to cry.

Come on Spring! You can make it. Please?

Spring is here! It is apparent all around campus. The flip flops and capris have emerged and you can start to see the little flowers pushing up through the ground! I love it. Spring tends to give me a new surge of energy that winter sucked out of me. It's awesome to have this new surge of energy, but it makes it so difficult to stay focused on studies when I could be playing outside, flying a kite, or going on a bike ride. Friday was a beautiful 70 degrees and Saturday was the same. I needed to run stairs around campus but I decided that hiking Waterfall Canyon would be just as good, if not better! So I grabbed my roommate and another friend and hiked up Waterfall Canyon. It was perfect hiking weather. A little breeze in the air, and the sun shining. Throughout the hike we ran into thousands of butterflies! They were everywhere! We made it to the top after about an hour and fifteen minutes, hung out by the waterfall for a bit, then started to head back down. There was still snow in some parts of the trail so it got a little slippery at times. I slipped and fell flat on my butt in the snow and had this awesome round circle of wetness on my butt for the rest of the hike. I just love being out in nature. I wish I had time to go hiking like that every day!

Weather for today: 50 degrees, a little bit of a breeze and shining!
Oh how I wish it could be like this every day! I just want to walk around campus all day and not go to class. I don't even have to wear a big warm coat, gloves or a scarf. Heck I can just wear a scarf instead of a coat. Most of the snow has melted and you can see the grass! The sky is clear and the birds are chirping. Pure loveliness. Perfect day for flying a kite! If only I had such a thing.
