That One Time I Dyed My Hair Brown and Went On Vacation (Part II)

The second day of vacation my sister and I went to Six Flags for the first time ever....and let me just say...AWESOME!! I died over all the Batman, Superman (Smallville/Tom Welling anyone?), and Coke paraphernalia. 

And this, my friends, is called "Supreme Funnel Cake" and can I just say that it's strawberry chocolaty goodness was TO DIE FOR.

And this was my little sister after experiencing her first upside down roller coaster:

I was seriously hoping Tom Welling or Christian Bale would be there walking around,  but no luck. Maybe next year...

That One Time I Dyed My Hair Brown and Went on Vacation (Part I)

First of all, I cannot BELIEVE that it is almost August. Seriously, I have no clue what happened to the past two months. 

Therefore, it has been nearly 2 months already since my vacation! My first vacation in 5 years, yo!

And it was glorious.  My sister-aka my best friend- and I went to the Baltimore/DC area for a 5 days and went to many, many places and ate at many,many more. haha.  

Our first day we went to the National Geographic Museum in downtown DC and saw the Titanic exhibit. If you know me at all, you know I LOVE the Titanic.  The history of it, and the movie. This exhibit was incredibly well done! And BONUS...it had real props used in the movie! AH! 

Observe:

To the right of this picture there is the real cherub statue the used on the bottom of the grand staircase on the set of the movie.  Of course I had to walk down the staircase like Rose:)

 Here is my sister (and then me) standing next to a lifeboat the used in the movie!!

 And this is a model that they used for shooting some underwater scenes in the movie:)

And this is me geeking out over Leonardo DiCaprio :)

We thought this was fitting....

I'm flying, Jack!

A Kind of Perfect Wednesday

Some of my favorite days are rainy ones.

And some of my favorite, favorite rainy days are ones spent at the movies. 

And favorite. favorite, favorite days for me include eating at one of my absolute favorite places in the world: the Juice and Java....a little hole in the wall that my friend's mom introduced me to a few years ago and I have fallen in love with. Seriously....SO good.  The BEST smoothies in the world and the Chicken Popper Fajita is TO DIE FOR.

Last week my sister and I had a favorite, favorite, favorite day and went to the Juice and Java on a rainy day and then went and saw People Like Us at the theater.  (Chris Pine anyone?)

(me sis and me )

This picture sums up my sister and I's relationship PERFECTLY!

My Nephew Is Hilarious

So, I have an 18 month old nephew. And he is stinking hilarious.  I am so blessed because I get to spend a lot of time with him and there is not a day that goes by when I see him and am not practically rolling on the floor laughing at him. He is just a kick.

Not to mention, he is stinking ADORABLE!!

 This is his cheesy grin that he does when he is hamming it up, or... when he's in trouble.

 I know I am bias, but seriously, cutest little boy ever.

He has a slight obsession carrying around handfuls of dog food and throwing them piece by piece at our 2 dogs. And a few weeks ago when my sister and I came home from vacation, he was just super excited and hyper the rest of the day. Plus, he's figured out how to start undressing himself. All of that combined equals this:

(sorry it's sideways, my mom shot the video haha)
