An un-official goodbye to Colorado.




My time in Colorado has almost come to an end. I'm NOT ready to go yet. Just a couple of more weeks?? It's been fun. The weather has been perfect! I will miss sleeping with the windows open at night and the late afternoon thunderstorms, the dry air...I'll miss the open sky and mountian veiws. I will miss the small mountain towns and their tourists, the over priced shops. I can't make up my mind where I'd like to settle...San Diego, Colorado, or the beaches of NC...It's a toughy.

Went on an outting today in a small town called Manitou Springs. LOVED it. It was packed with tourists and locals shopping and eating lunch. Something else I noticed were all the Hippies running around. The smell of pachuli oil and incense was all over the place. Reminded me of the South Park episode where the CO town was over run by Hippies. They were seriously....everywhere.

Strawberry Shortcake

As most of you know, I was planning on taking a trip to CO to visit family and friends. I was REALLY really looking forward to it. But, we had to reschedule. I'm totally bummed. I was already packed and ready to go. So, to ease the pain alittle bit, I decided to have a photoshoot with Adalie this afternoon. She's been chowing down on some grapes and strawberrys and I thought I could get some cute pictures while she ate them. Plus, my mom bought her this cute t-shirt that says, "Someone Loves Me in Mississippi". I was going to have her wear that on the plane ride....*sigh*

As usually, the dog next door saw Addy out playing and had to come visit her for a while. It's funny, he barks his head off at everyone who stands out back except for her. She has a way with animals.

Here she is wearing the t-shirt, her big sister's old pair of Converse, and a tutu I just bought for a past photoshoot. She's STYLING!

London Bridges

Happy 5th of July everyone! My 4th was pretty uneventful. No fireworks...no grilled hamburgers. I was okay with not seeing a fireworks show, but I was thinking and wanting some grilled food all day. Instead, I chose to eat out at KFC. It's still good eating...but It's not a grilled hamburger...

I had a photoshoot on the 3rd with a sweet little girl named London. She's a pretty little girl with a mind of her own and was not interested in having her pics taken in the least! I forget what it's like to have a two year old. Always chasing them around. They always want to do the opposite of what you want them to do. And if you dont let them do what YOU want them to do...they make sure to let you know how unhappy they are! But, at the end of a crazy day with your crazy toddler, they always let you know how much they love you and the day's stresses all melt away with their sweet kisses making tomorrow's crazy day something to look forward to.
