just for kicks!

So, my good friend Madeline tagged me in this post a while ago and it has taken me a while to get around to it. It's actually pretty exciting, like when you were in Jr. High and your friend sent you a questionnaire that you absolutely had to post on your Myspace. Oh, the memories of being 13 are coming back to me! Don't act like you kind of don't know what I mean all you teeny boppers out there! So even though I'm 21 and in my 4th (and unfortunately, not my last) year in college I'm gonna go ahead and channel that 13 year old right now.

To be with my family!

 I take so many pictures, too many! But here is one that gives me a good laugh. It is from the 4th of July this last summer and I just happened to snap the photo when my nephew was being thrown in the air. Thus, the floating baby.
