What time is it??

ADVENTURE TIME!!

So here's how it went...

It was a beautiful day out. I had to work. Of course, right? So on what seems to be the last nice day for a while, I'm stuck inside with no windows. Luckily enough, however, I got out of work early. So I ran straight home (yup.straightsprinted), got my adventure clothes, camera, newest book, and headed out to the river. What happened later was to be expected.

I frolicked. For hours I climbed, crouched, jumped, fell, and read. It was an extremely beautiful day and I was joined by many a jogger and biker. None who wanted to be in my pictures though. :/ This is the bike path that goes through South Elgin along the river. Used to be where Liz and Wrigley roamed, but now it's where I go almost every day and each time I walk or bike it, I find new places that I want to capture. In the picture above is this luscious patch of tall soft grass. I laid out my jacket and read for a little bit.

Top: No idea.
Bottoms: Thrift
Shoes: Urban Outfitters
Tights: Forever 21
Earrings: Goodwill
Book: Through a Dark Mist. Don't know anything about it. Just grabbed it. S'alright.

Finally, after many different locations, I came upon the spot I had longed for.

The worst part, though, was having to turn around and go back.

But tomorrow is another day. Another day that I have off. Another day that will probably be rainy... YAY! So now I'm back home, alone, comfy in Max's game room, with music blasting, and The Lorax waiting to be watched. Hope you are all having a great day. Anna needs to make a big, HUGE post about our mom's stay. She'll be home on Sunday. :)

On a cold Monday night...

I decided to write up a post. Here's an outfit from tonight that I wore out to dinner with Max. Fun facts: I took these in our backyard, our neighbor saw and totally called me out, it was super awkward and embarrassing. haha

Shirt: Forever 21

Jeans: American Eagle

Shoes: Ross

Necklace: Borrowed from my mom

Watch: Gift

On the 29th Max's parents hosted a murder mystery night that was super hero themed. It was a hoot. I was Shiver with the powers of ice and Max was Stingmata with the powers of poison, Brooke and Sam were Blue Blaze and the Wisher. When the time came we all jumped into one car and drove over to their parents house. Stopping at the stop lights was the best because people would look over and see...

Janine had made the most delicious food too, as always. She made some very potent rum/wine drinks with fruit. Very good, but very strong. haha Just like I like 'em!

Then she had appetizers, main meal, and dessert! She went all out and always does a great job at playing her part, which is always the host. She's really good at not giving anything away. Here are a few shots I got from Bill of all of us being crazy. haha

Embarrassingly enough, I had bought that dress a couple years ago online cause they girl modeling it made it look really cute... not so much in real life... Perfect for this party though! The night went great and we always have so much fun. Cannot wait for Halloween. Oh, and I can't forget the after dinner shots of rumchata, my new favorite!

And this weekend my cousin, Corbin, came to visit from Virginia. On Friday we got lunch and I showed him the new house. We just hung out for a while and it was really nice to catch up with him. We used to be really close when we were young, always picking on Anna. haha It's weird being so grown up now especially thinking of him being a father!! It was good to make some new memories to go along with the old ones. :) My best friend came home this weekend as well. Max and I went out to the Filling Station in St. Charles with her and her boyfriend. We met a few of his friends, Max got hit on by a table of guys, and then they came back to our place to hang out some more!

I'm going to go down and visit her in 2 weeks for SIU's unofficial halloween. Pretty stoked for that. It's kind of a big deal and it's awesome because the past couple years that we've gone we haven't been 21 so getting in was no problem, but getting drinks was another thing. Then again, there was that one year I ended up crying in a Jimmy John's at 2 am dressed like a dog and eating ice cubes, so I can't say it was too hard to get trashed... Can't wait to see what this year brings! :D All for now! Hope Anna and our mom are doing okay!

Playing dress up.

So recently I went thrifting on my way home from work. I probably shouldn't have since I'm about to move out and, therefore, don't need any MORE clothes to pack. But 1) it was pay day, 2) I hadn't been in a looooong time, 3) it was on my way home from work. How could I resist?

Anyway, I was really excited about my purchases and I really wanted to show Anna all the cool things I got. But we've tried to show each other clothes over Skype and it just doesn't work. We usually have a bad connection and even if we don't, you still can't get a good detailed look at the article of clothing. So I decided to do a post about it. Now, I might have had a little too much fun with this assignment. I LOVE playing dress up. So take a peek at the newest additions to my wardrobe and let me know which is your favorite outfit! :)
