lazy day

(Shorts: Ross. Shirt: Swagggggggg. Sunnies: Betsey Johnson.)

some say vacations are one huge big lazy day, i disagree. most of the time vacations for me are usually packed with activities and nonstop going, which i love but some days lazy days are needed. today was one of those, us girls woke up, made some breakfast and made our way to downtown Santa Cruz. we missed out first shot at the movie, so we settled for a later time. to spare some time we walked around, shopped, and of course at the one and only pizza my heart. 

i love my friends, and when i'm around them i realize how important it is to laugh.

p.s i updated 'hints of happiness' check it! 

sun burnt baby

(Dress: Ross. Sunnies: Betsey Johnson.) 

i'm so sun burnt it's not even funny. don't laugh ok? while most woke up and made their way to the beach, i slowly lifted my bum off the bed and begged for some tylenol. and while the 'others' basked in the warm sun, i hid while reading/finishing my book. there was no way this lobster was getting into a swim suit, i opted for the maxi dress.

i cant believe i still have 2 more fabulous nights here. i'm having the time of my life here, surrounded by my friends who i love the most.

tomorrow nicole and i are catching a movie bright and early!

have i mentioned that i've been playing an unhealthy amount of yahtzee?

beach week

(Shorts: Mimi Chica. Flannel: Thrifted.) 

hey there! i'll be away for the next 5 days! i'm spending the holiday week in aptos, such a fabulous beach town. i'm here with my best of friends, literally touching distance of the beach all week. we spent the first day laying out eating watermelon. watermelon is wonderful...do you like watermelon? everyone should at least attempt to eat a whole watermelon once in their life. well i'm off to venture off for the rest of the night, but i'll be back tomorrow. have a fabulous 4th of july!

p.s. the pictures with my straight face are strictly a joke, don't ever think that i take myself that seriously. 

children

(Shirt: no idea. Shorts: Marshalls. Headband: mom's.)

today i babysat my little cousins, and it was funny. i kept falling asleep, while they were watching tv. it's not my fault that yo gaba gaba is boring, and the couch was so so so comfortable. any who once i woke up for the 7th time and realized that i must do something with them, we went swimming. oh and major points for me: i made a peanut butter and jelly sand which then 'cookie cut it' into a rabbit shape. can you say the best babysitter/cousin/girl ever?

oh then i forced the little one to take pictures for me blog, she was mighty confused why i was being so vain. oh, the things you do for blogs.

it was a sweet one

lecturing the bystanders........listen up kids....

no, i'm not talking about me, but thanks. last night 2 of my most fabulous girlfriends had a sleep over. (yes i said girlfriends, my mom constantly says that when she's talking about a friend or friends that happens to be a girl.......i hate it...i guess it rubbed off on me) any who, it started off with me walking through the door and instantly wanting to make sweet potato fries. since i'm the most domesticated friends, i said i kindly offered. sweet potato fries are seriously the best tasting snack. ever. so we made our way to the store, grabbed everything and any that made our mouth water and walked out the door. now of course i couldn't eat half the crap you crave when you're having a sleep over. and why yes your taste buds change you when have a sleep over, didn't you know that?
