behind the lens: in the garden

I've really been enjoying the pretty flowers blooming in the backyard lately... 

behind the lens: after the storm

 This past weekend brought some crazy storms here in Minnesota.

Many trees were uprooted, millions without power, roads flooded....

Once the rain gave up Alvi and I went out to capture some photos and check out the damage

The peonies are about to bloom!

Spring is finally here... just a few months late.

spring time jams

Well, the sun came out today so it was automatically the best day ever. 

Now, I'm topping it off with a documentary on The Wizard of Oz and browsing one of my favorite Tumblr pages The Yard

(Don't you wish you could live inside every single picture? Just me?)

a new trend to try this summer: peek-a-boo socks

Peek-a-boo socks are my new thing. 

I'm loving them so much. 

All thanks to Ms. Kendi Everyday

Whats sad is that I'm just assuming the summer is going to be cold enough for socks. You're disappointing me, Minnesota!

happy birthday taurus!

Happy Birthday Taurus!

** by the way,  I chose materialistic because you love all of the finer things in life. 

It's not necessarily a bad quality ;)
