Tidbits

What a nice weekend! As always, it went far too quickly. But I was able to see many friends, talk on the phone with my family, and even relax a little bit! Not to mention to a bit of cooking/baking (which is a favorite pastime of mine).
Not a bad end to a very tiring week. And now it's back to the weekly grind tomorrow! I'm not quite sure I'm ready for another full week of work, but-is anyone really?




These photos are from a week ago, but I haven't got around to posting them yet. I love this vintage dress with the fun detail down the front! I'm always amazed at how much better quality vintage dresses are than dresses you can buy at a store nowdays. This dress is fully lined and just made so well. I always have to wear so many undergarments under my dresses that I buy new- I love not having to wear like 6 slips on a summer day!



Yesterday some friends and I went to the fair in town. We didn't go on any rides or even eat any fair food, but we did get to see some amazing animals! I got to pet an elephant and it was just the most beautiful animal. I patted it's head and it nuzzled me and put it's head next to mine! What a gentle giant...Love elephants!





In other exciting news, I sang on the worship team for the first time in church today! It was so much fun! I felt so amazing up there singing...can't wait to do it again! I love finally getting involved in a church after moving around so much after transitioning to college. It's nice to have a church home!







Hope you all have a splendid week!
God Bless,
KJA


Philippians 4:4-5
Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice!
Let everyone see that you are considerate in all you do. Remember, the Lord is coming soon.

It is funny how you can buy these vintage, well-put together dresses for potentially less than a store bought dress and it be built better... I feel like all my vintage jewelry holds up much better than any jewelry I buy today, too! How about that. :D

That dress is so preeeetty! I love that color of it and that stripe design going up one side. It's so cute with that clutch!

Have a lovely lovely week (even though we all don't reaaaally want to start it... you're right, weekends just fly by!)

Beautiful dress! I agree that vintage pieces are made of better quality than what you get today! And petting an elephant? How fun!!

I happen to agree that elephants are the best animals in the whole world, magical! And that cute scarf and purse just make this outfit.
