everyday that you want to change, you can

SO, this past weekend, Olivia and I went to the Common Ground Fair AKA the most amazing place ever. Full of hippies. I want to live there... forever. 

Highlights: 
Goats galore. I love these goats. 
Sheep too, and a really cute calf.
Plus the chicken/turkey
Sweet Annie — a really good smelling herb(?)
 a yellow VW bus
the entire political tent — I got some bumper stickers: no nukes, bread not bombs, and bikes not bombs.
AMAZING posters. Olivia and I got three :)
..and all of the hippies.







how cute?!

I gotta keep myself free {adventures part 2}

002. Part 2 of the adventures Olivia and I had the other day. We saw this huge spider — it was probably about as big as my palm with it's legs stretched out! It was slightly frightening since I'm sure it could've swallowed my finger whole (maybe an exaggeration). It was also really cool, and Olivia and I will definitely go venturing in the field again.























{amazing photos of fuzzies (as I call them) blowing through the wind}


LOOK AT THIS SPIDER!! I am not afraid of spiders, but I have to admit that this one is kinda freaky. Apparently it is a black and yellow argiope AKA a "writing spider" — the same kind that Charlotte was from Charlotte's Web :)

we're locked up in ideas {adventures part 1}


001. The other day, Olivia asked me to take some photos of a couple of her outfits {posts on her blog are henceforth coming.} SO... we rode our bikes down to this large, random, hay field near my house. We were originally going to do a bunch of different outfits... but we got extremely pre-occupied with other things in the field: hundreds of crickets, several praying mantises, and a HUGE spider.

part 2 coming soon

P.S. like the new design? Thanks to Olivia Collins
