what a beautiful mess this is.

blogging fail.


i love summertime. i love idaho. i love my life. and i. am. t h a n k f u l.

t h a n k f u l  for: my wonderful boyfriend.
June 13th, 2010

Every summer of mine for the past four years, have been spent with this wonderful guy. June 13th was the special day. Full of adventure, laughter & quite the surprise.
(no, not a giant diamond ring - just to get that part out of the way)
We woke up early that morning after a late night of trying to figure out what to do for our anniversary. We were both super tired & i had gotten sick so we had a much later start than we had planned on (2pm-ish). We drove two hours into the wonderful Idaho mountains, destination; ghost towns! After stopping to let the dogs play in the river we saw a moose! Literally three minutes later we started driving again when we heard a loud hissing sound (?!?) yeah, basically, long story short; we blew a tire. at the very bottom of Grimes' Creek Summit. Summit= super giant mountain looking over the payette river. Bottom= 2 miles below. ha. So Aaron basically drove the fastest i've ever seen him go. Right when we made it to the top the tire was flat.
joy.

oh, did i mention that we had zero cell service?
so we sat on this corner for a long, long time.
& it was worth it, we had this view the entire time...
(but no worries, we got service...roaming & broken up...but it went through!)

i snapped this one the moment my BB got service.
H A P P Y.
i love nature. and i had a lot of fun. but we both had to get back into town because we both had work the next morning...so we were super relieved when we got through to Aaron's buddy Gary, who drove 3 hours to come and get us. Such a nice guy!
a lot of people ask me how we took allll sorts of pictures together when it was just the two of us(??).
well, i used a tri-pod and a remote.
rough life. hahaha.
It was perfect.
p.s.
Dear ____,
he's mine...& always will be.
so you can stop talking shit and being jealous.
you know who you are.
quit stalking me.
- k & a.
t h a n k f u l  for: my dad & the house i grew up in.
his landscaping and garden is like an oasis!
i'll post more garden pics over the summer. of mine & my dads. his is better, haha.
t h a n k f u l  for:  beautiful summer storms.
i have around 3000 shots over the month of june of just storms.

(you know the rule about posting blogs that take 4 hours to read...ha)
