me, my camera and the sun..

today was an unexpected ray of sunshine.. literally, the sun was shining! it was a nice change of pace from our recently stormy seattle weather. well, the sun was making me so happy and i had to get out in it! so, i decided to go adventuring.. all by myself! i grabbed my camera, sunglasses and lipgloss and headed out to see what i could find to do! i ended up at alki beach (a favorite of mine) and had fun walking along the shore and taking pictures.. and of course i stopped in at starbucks for an hour or so. it was a gorgeous day and i quite enjoyed spending it with myself =]

here are some shots i got today. the black and whites were my favorite..

i really like this one.

snow in february!

me in the snow

we woke up this morning to 5 inches of fluffy white snow! it was beautiful. i went on a 2 hour walk in the snow with my mom and dad.. we ended up at cutters point (a local coffee chain) where we split a mocha frappe.. even though it was so cold outside, we were hot by the time we got there and needed something to cool us off. it was a good day =]
