Simplicity.

Today I decided to go on a walk. All by my little self.

So I got all bundled up and headed out to face the cold. 



I have walked down Main St. and through Brunswick hundreds of times. 
But I always have a purpose in doing so. 
Today I just walked to walk. 

I absolutely LOVE living in a small little town. 
We have an ice skating rink right in the center! 
I LOVE just sitting and watching the whole community come together and skate. 

Today there was the cutest little father and son playing ice hockey. 

And I couldn't help but laugh at these two other kids! (The little girl and the one in mid-fall)  They literally fell every other second. 
But they would just get back up... and fall again! 

Its so neat that when you just step back and take time to look... 
the things right in front of you are absolutely amazing.

Bowdoin Besties!

These two girls are some of my best buddies at Bowdoin! 

They have made my college experience oh so wonderful. 
Everyday I look forward to seeing their beautiful faces and hearing all their crazy fun stories! Plus I love the nonstop eating, long runs that feel short because we have deep conversations the whole way, laughing our heads off at the hideous blanket we made, planing trips and them actually happening (BOSTON AND CALIFORNIA) or counting down the minutes till sundae bar! :] 
We have had so many fun times... and there are so many more to come! 



They defiantly make Maine absolutely amazing. 

The best of friends.

I absolutely love these boys. 


Probably the most amazing guys you will ever meet. 

They make me so happy inside. 

 I am so blessed to call them my friends. 

My dear best friend Mckenzie and I went up to visit our lovely men friends!
Had a wonderful time.
Once home I had two days before I headed back to Maine. 
With that time, and $60.... we made these: 


and this: 


and this!   


And Honestly, though we had fun making the aprons.. we were sick of it after one! 
Lets just say we are not  the best at sewing! Probably the worst! 
But at least we tried right??? 
Now buying the fabric... we could do that forever. 
We practically did. We sat in walmart.. just sitting on the ground laughing at all the funny fabrics that are in this world! 

The moral of this post is that I love my guys friends (and girl friends) with all my HEART! 
They make my life so wonderful!
 And are totally worth spending hours frustrated at the sewing machine! 
YAY for them!
