Has been hot and sunny. And HOT. So Hannah and I went to the beach…



Saturday was the last day of our ‘official’ vacation, though let me just reassure my little sister now: summer is sooo not over yet.
Hannah and I spent the last day of vacation together, starting the day, as we often do lately, with breakfast and Buffy.

Then in the afternoon we headed over to the historic Hamilton House for a horse show. Royal Lipizzan Stallions, to be precise, and they are just as impressive as they sound.






I love this shot. These two little girls were just in awe of the horses.

When Mom texted me to see if we wanted to do a movie, we said yes, if only because after roasting ourselves in the hot sun, the opportunity to sit in a cold and dark theater was all too appealing. We saw Rise of the Planet of the Apes, which was pretty damn amazing, and then went home to end the day with – what else? – Buffy the Vampire Slayer Heartbreaker (just a couple of Spike fans over here…)
I’d like to thank my family for seeing to it that this summer vacation was pure awesome with a side of awesomesauce. Y’all rock.
And not just because you’re related to me.

Vacation 2011: over and out.
Just another down day, otherwise known as Emily’s Catch Up On Life-a-Palooza
Today I…
- washed dishes
- vacuumed my room
- brewed more kombucha
- made my bed
- put away all of my clean clothes (and, in a more or less directly related way, restored my treadmill to full working order)
- virtually shopped for a new iPhone case
- watched Buffy with my sister
- ate a great deal of barbecued meat
Also…I love this video. Props to Hannah for sharing it.
Spent most of a sunny Sunday with this gorgeous girl.
Had lunch at The 99.
Walked around the Lilac Mall (she scored those great leg warmers).
Then we saw Captain America.
Again.

Came home for burgers on the barbecue and a backyard bonfire.
It was a good day.
