Visit From Atltanta

Today was so great! My aunt is visiting from Atlanta, so I spent most of the day with my Mom and Aunt catching up. We went for lunch, then picked up my little sister from school. After that we went shopping and I bought some new make-up brushes, blush, bronzer, and nail polish. Now I'm relaxing with a peppermint and ginger tea watching last weeks episode of The Vampire Diaries. I LOVE this show!!

Station to Station

Ashley of Opheliac and I took these photos a couple of weeks ago. It was a Sunday and the boys were cooking us dinner and watching the football game, so we decided to get some outfit shots in before the sun set. 

Some one commented in this post asking if these Aldo shoes are comfy. They are surprisingly comfy despite their height, but they do have a narrow heal so I do find them difficult to walk in when I'm not on a flat surface. I really struggled walking along the train tracks because of the rocks for these photos! In the first photo I was sweeping the rocks of the rails so I could keep my footing. Luckily, later down the tracks we found a broom!

Sun is Shining

I finally felt well enough to venture outside today! And I am so happy that I did because it was gorgeous out! The weather was perfect. I didn't even have to wear a jacket. I took a little walk up the street to Tim Hortons, bought a hot chocolate and sat outside enjoying the sun. Afterwards I walked over to a nearby hair salon and booked myself in for a trim tomorrow afternoon. I'm so excited that I'm starting to feel less nauseous and dizzy. I was also excited that I felt like wearing something other that baggy button up shirts and sweatpants. My little adventure wore me out though, and I am in need of a little nap. It's so funny that a little walk down the street can tire me out, but I guess my body is still recovering. Sleep Sleep Sleep.

Blind Beggar

I wanted to wait to post these pictures until someone posted some actual pictures of JP and the guys playing on facebook, but I haven't seen any yet. I'm such a bad blogger and girlfriend! No real outfit pictures and no pictures of the band! Just photos of me and my friends. 

JP's band, No Days, had a really good turn out for their first show. The pub where they played, The Blind Beggar, was packed! I'm glad we got there early because the tables filled up fast and a lot of people had to stand. 

My outfit for the show was a little black t-shirt dress, leopard leggings, tan leather jacket, and my Aldo wedges.

I can't believe it's Wednesday already! I'm going a little stir crazy, and can't wait to get out of the house. I've been patiently sitting at home, taking it easy, waiting to heal from surgery. I ended up having to go to my family doctor to get some more pain medication because I felt like my face was going to explode. Saturday, Sunday and Monday were spend laying totally still in one spot all day, trying to sleep off the nauseousness from the pain. Now I'm back on the painkillers and the nauseousness is gone, but I'm too dizzy and loopy to leave the house. It's also pretty awkward going out in public with bruises on your face. I'm just hoping that I feel decent enough by the weekend to visit with my aunt. She lives in Atlanta and I miss her like crazy!! Can't wait to see her <3

Little Blue Dress

A couple of months ago my little sister and I decided to go through old photo albums to find pictures from when I was little for mine and JP's wedding slideshow. This was one of the photos we chose. 

This is me and one of my brothers, and my moms cat Simba outside of my Grandma's house.. I was obsessed with this dress. I would try to wear it everyday. Blue was my favourite colour, and this was the perfect twirling dress.
