gardens grow on paper

I went babysitting tonight. Ahlee and i drew a garden picture together.
[p.s.- i liiiike how little children's brains work.]

It feels like it's the end of the week already. But really it's only tuesday. Goodness me.
[I think lots of naps are in order to get through the week. TRUE.]

And it's finally starting to feel like Fall. The first day. I bid summer a bittersweet goodbye.

Dear summer,
i bid you farewell.
i will miss you.
love, me.

Dear autumn,
i'm beginning to adore you.
i really think it's time for you and i to be friends.
love, me.

Hope life is joy to all you.
Love.Mandy.

i was rather blunt today. or at least i thought so.

I think i'm getting sick.
And i'm just dreading the thought. Goodness.

Bend today.
Poster passing was smashing.
Benefit concert this weekend.
Now they all know.
It was a goodly job.

Homework. Almost done.[phew]

And.
I really like this song.

love.mandy.♥

Love,
tandymandy

bird-day day.

She's 19 now.
A lovely 19 year old.
I liiiike her.

Her birthday:

A hunt full of witty little things.
It took her more than an hour.

Drank tea.

Park date.
It was darling. Every bit.

We all went to the movies.
"Letters to Juliet"

She got a kindle.
Named it 'Trey Francis'
Bahaha.

And tonight,
the ballet.

love...tandymandy

my lips matched my skirt

My day: pure joy.

All about pink lipstick and oldies in the car.

And...
I rode my bike.(heart) It was dandy. Made me smile big.
And then i went and picked bouquets. We have a smattering of flowers in our kitchen these days. I liiike it.

(3 days to go)
Bird-day shopping for bell was a success. I'm not even close to being nearly done but it's all coming along nicely. I'm glad. Her bird-day is going to be rad i tell you. Very rad indeed. I still have so much to do though. O my.

I have a song stuck in my head. "Almost Lover" by a fine frenzy. {Courtesy of kirsty.} It's been playing over and over all day long. But i can't say i dislike it. I'm rather falling in love with it. Seriously.

Tomorrow is:
Cramming on the birthday stuff.
Letter writing.
And sunSHINE.

Hope life is beautiful.

Love, Tandymandy

right now

ME:
singing to myself at the library.
(that man is giving me a funny look)

nine letter word

i am ridiculously proud of my cupcakes

I made them today.
Can you say smashing or what? Who wouldn't want to get a box of those? I sure would. And if anyone ever does give me a smashing box of cupcakes, i would LOVE you forever. *hint* *hint*

It rained. I liked it. And right now, i kind of wish it would rain everyday. Just so i could dance in it. I would be so completely happy.

Tuesday: 3 loaves of homemade bread were made.
Wednesday: All gone.
Darn.

Prom picture.
Tomorrow is
partly cloudy.
school.
little dress.
and
team dinner.
I bet i'll have a jolly good time.

Have a delightful thursday my lovelies.

little joy makes me HAPPY

Hello two O Clock in the morning. I rather liiiiiiikkkkeee you.

I couldn't sleep. O dear.
I have my hat on.
Listening to Little Joy.
Reidlee, you got me hooked.
And i must say, THANK YOU.

The weekend:

Un Prom turned into Prom.
And i can't say i liiiked it, but i can't say i hated it either. Who doesn't like a chance to spazzy dance in front of everyone. Cause i have to say i don't mind it at all. It's rather fun.

I curled my hair.

Church was beautiful. I simply adore listening about peter.
Afterwords Bell and i went on a little stroll to 7/11.
(want to know a secret? I always feel like i'm going to get mugged in 7/11. Ugh.)

I think i'll go glue pictures in my inspiration book and watch where the wild things are.
That sounds adorable.

Good morning my lovelies.

love, tandymandy

It's going to be rad i tell you.

i can't complain.
it's sounding pretty legit at the moment.

I think i'm getting sick, though.
o no.

just so you all know
"I'm not getting sick."

I LOVE the weather.♥

hope you all have a rad day.

tandymandy
