lately i cannot seem to help my obsession with the 1960s. our house is being taken over by it.
when editing pictures on picnik, my mouse could find the "1960s button" with my eyes closed. i may be taking this thing overboard, but i love it. everything becomes more nostalgic.
above is a beach picture that i've always loved... and now ~ i love it even more with a 1960s twist. if you love pictures as much as i do and you don't have picnik yet, you should.
there are gillions of different editing combinations...
but once you find your favorite, you'll never go back.
{our yellow house: bits and pieces are coming together}
{hoping we have a green thumb}
this house has a story.
{i wish i knew it}
the only story that i know... is that everytime michael and i drive from his parents house back to charlotte: we pass this house. AND every time i would say, "michael! pleaaaseee can we stop and take pictures of that house?" AND not wanting to turn back around, we would pass it everytime. SO! We went into this one really old antique place we had been before looking for 1960s furniture. {I managed to find a nice looking hutch, but he wanted $425 for it.. and that was not my kind of deal} I asked the man where he got it and he said, "the old house with the pink shutters," as he pointed down the road. He said, "yeah they're gonna burn it down soon, so we emptied it out."
okay ~ long story, but that is how i FINALLY got michael to stop and take pictures of this place. because they're going to burn it. apparently the family who used to live here owned a lot of land.
i think it's magical.
appreciating the fall colors on the blue ridge parkway...
after wcu homecoming!

im not sure michael likes so much attention on my blog.
but he's real cool.
