oh hey there...

i went to mexico for two weeks

that was awesome. it was crazy beautiful and surreal. 

i was there? what? 

i still cant believe it. 

these are my two best pals from the trip , my car mates , my bunk buddies & the two funniest people ive met in a long long time ... wes & jen. i miss them terribly. oh how i hate distance... well... no... i dont hate distance... i hate not being able to jump across it whenever i want. 

i miss everyone from my trip. they were all my family. love them. 

i swam with sea lions

had dolphins swimming under and around my boat 

saw whale sharks under my boat. a swordfish. flying manta rays. 

dove for clams and ate them. ate raw scallops from the bottom of the sea of cortez

had gangs of bullseye pufferfish following me at all times whenever i went in 

bird watched the most incredible species

slept on cots on the beach underneath hundreds of stars every night

got a mean tan 

and didnt break any of my nails 

so all in all... amazing trip. wanna see photos? OKAY SURE! 

thats just some. i am still waiting for the other photos to surface from other peoples cameras. 

my soul grew larger from being in mexico. 

its a great place. 

so yeah

. i'll leave you with that.

i'm stoked for another year in Tahoe for the 4th of July. last years 4th was super hilarious and crazy ... brooke & i went to tahoe to her friends house on the lake and it was just some wild weird party and we walked out into the lake to watch fireworks. i love & miss my brooke! ah! '

tomorrow i am going to the lagoon (2nd picture down below) for a swim & tan sesh with audra. jackie would come... but she missed her flight back from florida. haha. i miss jackie. i miss all my friends.

lets get summer started

here are some good photos to get your summer time vibe flowin :

san fran get away

so i went to sanfran for a day really .

i got to megs around 7:30 on friday and we ordered a cheese pizza & relaxed , went to bed early.

then saturday we went to Haight to find some new heels for me... i found the best pair ever. i am soooo pleased with them. i want to wear them everywhere

i also came across this: bansky!

then we went to Oakland for our shoot with Michael Blackmon .. it was so fun . i cant wait to see the images from it. it'll be awesome. meg & i got some photos together too which will be way cool to see!!
then after the shoot we went out to meet up with Claire & Erin at Crepes on Cole in the Haight for dinner/dessert & wine (or beer in megs case) . Erin is from Glasgow Scotland and she has an accent ... i love her. and Claire is from Switzerland. so we were all Euro girls. well kinda ... meg just loves to talk in different languages so she counts because of that. haha

then after we were done being extremely loud and ridiculous in Crepes we walked up the street a bit and found a bar called Finnegans Wake so we had to go in . but it was mostly older people but we had fun anyway. tooons of fun. the guy who was sitting next to us bought us all a drink each which was so nice. but we decided he was a vampire .

i took some photos with my phone but of course they are all fuzzy & dark but they are fantastic anyways.

me & my meg!

me & claire .... this is my favorite photo ever right now!!! it makes me so happy!

meg, me, claire & erin! smooshed... i love them.


and amazingly meg & i made it back by 10:30 . we are wimps.. and we love to sleep... so we prefer to just crash early.. haha

here are two photos from megs back deck

i love San Francisco!
