live in the sunshine.

a fair description of my life the past couple weeks would probably be:
pancakes, laughing, books, sunburn, wrestling, goat cheese, milkshakes, singing, mangoes, surfing & being in love
got back to hawaii a couple weeks ago & it's been good. so good.
chase proposed the night i flew in! in our secret cave where we had our first kiss. it was perfect.
i turned twenty, which i understand to mean i can no longer justify stupid decisions with the reasoning that i'm still a teenager. i'm finally grown up.
chase & i have been on a very exhaustive milkshake hunt, trying to find the best shake on the island. still in progress.
i got an internship with honolulu magazine for the fall! i'm incredibly excited about it.i've also been interning with a travel website called dguides.com, writing articles about the island.
mostly i've just been enjoying being a bum, taking online classes & working a bit but otherwise playing in the sun, surfing, reading books & singing songs.
but.. i miss my girlies!i miss my maggie elize & her sweet sweet voice.i miss cat & her creativity.i miss em & denise & my little persian creature.i miss girls surf squad.
can't wait for fall time.

my heart is an apple.

there's something so sweetly summer about plucking a raspberry from the bush & popping it straight onto your tongue.

my sister claims the kids eat two berries for every one that makes its way into their buckets.

. . . i guess i'm still just a kid.

mountains beyond mountains.

i love

mountain air, sisters, sunshine &

singing shamelessly
