A handful of pretty pics...

Has this summer gone by fast or what? It’s almost August for Pete’s sake! I try to think back and remember what I’ve been doing but it’s a blur! There’s been crafting and weddings and parties and more crafting. And HEAT. This is about the time where I start wishing for winter. I want to wear my sweaters galdangit and throw a couple (hundred) snowballs!

But then I stop myself because I know wishing for time to go by faster is a major no-no. I’m usually the one spouting off about relishing small pleasures and living in every moment. But I guess I tend to forget that more often than not. Luckily I have a great Manfriend that allows me to divulge in my random spurts of “living in the moment”. This time I got a bug to start taking photos again, and he abidingly agreed to drive me around to find some hidden landscape treasures.

He knows all the little back roads and prairie trails so he’s basically the perfect picture taking chauffer. He even minds my sudden STOP HERE’s and the occasional BACK UP THREE INCHES commands. Yeah I’ve got it made…and I know it…because I don’t take anything for granted…riiiiiiiight…

Anyways I want to share some of the photos I snapped while on our little expedition. Enjoy these little moments (with a vintage twist!) frozen in time...

Love wild sunflowers...

I try to imagine what this schoolhouse was like when it still had kids running around...I wonder how many could fit in there?

Pretty waves

So cute...

Pretty sunset to end the day...
