picture an hour......more or less

i've seen the "photo an hour" feature on many blogs, and wanted to try it out! i work 6 days a week, so most of my days would be pretty boring to document. (unless anyone finds excel charts super exciting?) so i tried to capture my "weekend" last saturday, when we met up with joe's folks for some breakfast, got some shopping done, and did a little diy!

i picked up these great old lady pants from the thrift store a few weeks ago, and while i'm pretty sure culottes are the epitome of chic, i decided i would help them out a little by shortening them into some cute high-waisted floral shorts! not bad for $5! (the kitty in the photo was just a bonus they threw in)

and... ta-da! the finished product:

outfit // top: forever 21 // belt and wedges: urban outfitters // shorts: thrift + diy

9 am: we met joe's parents and grandma for breakfast at this cute place called dad's kitchen, where i had the most delicious french toast of my life:

11 am: joe and i do a little thrifting (and gifting?) this storefront is so adorable!

12pm: joe's mom had bought me a cake pop from a cute little bakery. this one was labeled "harry potter fire pop" (this was the weekend of the movie premiere) i failed to notice the word fire, i just got excited because it said harry potter. it was a mix of delicious chocolate fudginess and super spicy chili-ness.

i am really wimpy about spicy foods :(

2pm: we ventured over to the mall with the goal of finding me a new purse, and were successful at urban outfitters:

4pm: relaxing at home with a book (and there's that cat again......)

*i'm just kidding. i'm not sure how many pictures i've shown of my cat amelie, but she is actually mine and i love her more than is probably healthy :D

6pm: we bbq'ed up some dinner and brought it all outside to enjoy the cooler weather:

we did do some other things throughout the day like computers and tv, that weren't too worth documenting. all in all, it was a lovely day off from work!
