30DPC: Day 25

Day 25: A picture of your day.

First meal of the day: Michigan's favorite Donut Shop (We never eat donuts, but everyone here raves about this place! Had to try it!)

Indulged in our donuts while getting our oil changed at Uncle Ed's.

Sheely runs errands with us.

Strawberry cheesecake donuts, errands, cookie baking, and catching up on Netflix...pretty good Sunday!

30DPC: Day 24

Day 24: A picture of something you wish you could change.

I could stand to grow a few inches taller. Obviously.

Day 23: A picture of your favorite book.

Not sure what my favorite book is these days, but I remember loving these classics when I read them years ago, and would love to read them again.

30DPC: Day 22

Day 22: A picture of something you wish you were better at.

Disgusting picture of us in our PJs over fall break

My college roomie Jen and her then boyfriend (now husband) Jack, took me home with them to Medina, Ohio over fall break. We bought and carved pumpkins, and for whatever reason, I have zero artistic pumpkin carving skills. Mine turned out looking like it was carved by a kindergartner who was blindfolded and had one arm tied behind his back, and Jen's entire family still makes fun of me to this day about it.

30DPC: Day 21

Day 21: A picture of something you wish you could forget.

I went to Hilton Head one summer with the Belew's and made the mistake of not putting on sunscreen the first day we were there (back when I was a stupid college girl). I spent the rest of the trip looking like a lobster, wearing loose clothing, and requiring Sarah's younger cousins Katie and Allie to rub aloe and lotion on me daily. Over the next few weeks the pain went away, but my skin peeled off in disgustingly large pieces, including my scalp. I will never, ever, do that again...no mater how badly I want a tan.
