tuesday tangents

#1. got my school pictures today. haha it always makes me feel so nostalgic to get these.

it also made me nostalgic for summer. 

missing a tan.

#2. Taylor seriously has the WORST luck with cars.

we just bought him a brand new car, because we've been having so many problems with his poor little truck. He has been SUCH a good sport about not having a working car the past couple of months.

Of course, he walks out to find this last night:

 Can you believe it!?

He's had this brand new car (which means brand new tires) for less than three weeks!

there was a huge wood chunk stuck in the tire.

good going, tay. ;)

#3. Love being able to facetime with this cutie.

I can't wait to see him in just three weeks!

#4. I also like facetiming with this ugly. 

haha just kidding, M.

We have "ugly face contests" all of the time on facetime.

It's usually a pretty close tie.

#5. I seriously have the best mom-in-law ever. 

The other day, she texted me to tell me to come over after work where a glass of cold milk and warm chocolate cookies would be waiting for me. Perfect on a brisk fall afternoon. Is that the best news or what?

#6. Watching Taylor and his brother together always makes my heart smile.

They play video games while I watch movies on my laptop. 

best life, I tell ya.
