the heart as it is | courage • grief • beauty

These are the days of…

Visiting new coffee shops ! This was open during the Oakdale Morning Market:

Finding an antique camera at a thrift shop that I ended up doing a lot of research on for how to work it, but then ended up not buying (even though it was only $10!):

Going to Pinecrest Lake again on July 4 to go Kayaking ! It felt warmer this year, so we even got in the water to swim around a bit:

Celebrating Jacob’s birthday !

Revisiting a coffee shop and flower shop place near where we ate for Jacob’s birthday dinner:

Getting my film developed (from last year) ! Here are some of the photos:

Planning our honeymoon trip for October to Hawaii !

Hanging out with JJ (he licks his paw a lot so my dad put a dog shoe over his paw):

Playing Farmville again, and finally getting the border collie !:

Making homemade applesauce:

Buying this really cute morning bun to eat for breakfast while my stomach goes through whatever it is going through:

Also finding out that 99Ranch was founded in the 1940’s by a Taiwanese immigrant ! So cool to learn more about my heritage.

Anyways, thanks for reading if you have !
