Throwback: Disney (part 1)

Last April, I went to Florida with my family.  I had been twice when I was 2 and 3 years old, but I don't think that really counts.  So it was kind of like the first time I had gone.  Yesterday I thought about how badly I wanted to go back, which inspired this post.  We went to Disney World and Harry Potter World when we were there.  Strangely enough, going to the grocery store there stood out a lot to me too.  Anyway, we spent about 4 hours in Harry Potter world, just because I love everything Harry Potter.  I loved Animal Kingdom and Epcot in Disney World.  But I really loved the Haunted Mansion at Magic Kingdom; I went on it nearly every day of the trip.  Anyway, just as a way to try and relive the warmth and sunshine of that trip during these cold months up north....

I went on this and was very proud of myself.

Hopefully I get another chance to go to Florida soon, I'd definitely prefer the sun to the snow any day.

A Day Downtown

When Juliette visited earlier this month, we went downtown.  It was really the first time I've shot in a public place where there are a lot of people, so to be honest I was a bit nervous.  But after about two minutes I was comfortable as could be, taking pictures and whatnot as usual.  Then we went onto a side street, in front of the old mills.

I wore a 3/4 sleeve striped shirt (my new favorite), a skirt with small pleats, grey tights, metallic pink flats, my rose bracelet, and a DIY hair crown.  Juliette wore a black leather skirt, black tights, lace tie shirt, a tan and black blazer, Nine West boots, and an assortment of bracelets and rings as always.  Photos of me by Juliette.

Missing the Summer

The winter seems to drag on forever in upstate New York, and I can't help but to think of how much I miss the sun get a little disappointed.  Obviously it's been fun so far, I have friends up here and we've managed to keep busy during these cold months.  But summer means all kinds of wonderful things.  Sandals, beaches, no tights, green grass, warm weather, travelling, and most importantly: SUN!!  I'm already excited for summer, and I just can't wait for spring. I hope for many fun adventures THIS summer, though it may be months away!!  That being said, here's a look back at summer 2012 and the things I'm looking forward to most.

Flowers! Lots of flowers! - Trips into the city - Beaches - Pets - Old family photos - Candy shops.

Hope you're looking forward to warmer weather as much as I am!
