a beautiful saturday at the atlanta temple

la familia Zuniga was sealed.

it was a piece of heaven.

with all the hermanas

(mom and i stick out just a bit)

same weekend, two weddings

the second one was complete with swans on the lake!

the happy mr. and mrs. granadillo!

i worked with cristina @ bynum plumbing

with my new job, i miss having her to talk to!

though it was fun to finally meet all the people i had heard so much about.

that night was my first cuban food experience.

i think i fell in love.

ha!

and how ideal that the very next day,

there was a Groupon for Papi's Cuban Grill !!

i was all over that.

the first fruits!!!

nothing beats home grown.

i have a new love for hydrangeas.

ours are beginning to bloom...



i have a crush on tom sturridge.

...wouldn't you?

thoughts from my week:

1-  i believe in angels

2-  don't be selfish...we are often the answer to other people's prayers.

3-  living by myself is lonely

4-  at age 24, the possibilites are still  e n d l e s s...

5-  i miss kevin.

6-  be flexible. life, or even days, rarely go how you plan. 

7-  some weeks, i only want to wear dresses. i find it refreshing.

after all, there is nothing wrong with feeling like a lady.

especially when you are one

cutest movie i've seen in a long time.

iLOVEit.

it will be going in my collection.


daily doodle:

it's been one of t h o s e days.

i am also quite convinced that no matter where i end up...

my heart will always want to be back in georgia.

i used to dream of living in the city, but i think i'd hate it.

i love downtown...but i don't want to LiVE there.

i love the beach...but i'd miss the trees and the lakes and the parks.

i have family out west...but i would shrivel up in the dusty desert.

noplease!

i need lots of trees and green. peace. and a friendly variety of people. 

i   love   georgia   best.

sumR

may 20th.

i did have a nice birthday.

24 years down!

we went downtown to eat

and saw the new pirates of the carribbean

in 3-D on IMAX - go big or go home, right?

dave and pete were there too.

i didn't take like ANY fotos of the evening

shame on me.

but thankyou to those who made my day not so ordinary.

the garden is sprouting up!!

(the sweet pototoes)

the maters are almost perfect for

fried green tomatoes!!

mmmmm...

the romas and cherries

the "still to be planted" ones

i wanted some BIGsunflowers in the veggie garden

a while back i planted some seeds in cups for starting

and once they were a few inches tall, transplanted them into the garden.

well, some d a g u m  b i r d s ate them.

chomped the leaves & stem, to NADA!

uuuuuurgh!

so i planted some more.

i noticed a couple barely poking up through the soil

and made a mental note to make some "cages" to protect them.

going out only a few hours later...

 those bLAsted birds had already destroyed what was hardly there!

i WiLL have my sunflowers...

and my bamboo plant has doubled in height...

am i supposed to trim it ever??

or do i just let it reach the ceiling?

i had to speak in church last Sunday.

it was good for me.

the difference between what we do

and what we are capable of doing

would suffice to solve most of the world's problem

everyone has inside of him a piece of good news. the good news is that you don't knoe how great you can be! how much you can love! what you can accomplish! and what your potential is!" - anne frank


the greatest waste in the world is the difference between

what we are

and

what we could become.

- ben herbster -

become

who you were born to be

there is no need for latter-day saints to worry over things of this world.

they will all pass away.

our hearts should be set on things above.
