i got back from san diego early evening on the fourth of july, and after spending all day flying we got back to jessica's house with enough time to change clothes and check our email from the past four days and then it was out again. but it was for fireworks. fireworks were beautiful. watching all those colors light up the sky and noticing how ( Read more... )

yep. so it's official. i'm a lobster again. well, i guess only partially. just this pretty big area on my back. okay like all of my upper back. and some of my shoulders. but my face didn't get burned! so that's good. today i spent a good 4 hours at the beach. yep, the beach. but when you live in chicago that means lake michigan, not the pretty ( Read more... )
