combat boots = hip.

i'll be honest. sometimes i take sleeping in a little longer over having more time to choose an outfit. but since my early class was canceled due to the art history convention in new york, (bless the art history gods) i had a little more time today.

i am obsessed with these boots i borrowed from hannah.

happy first birthday, mark!

our dear baby mark:

happy first birthday!

i remember one year ago when we were in the hospital with your mommy and daddy waiting to greet you.

little did we know all the joy you would bring us. i have loved every moment spent with you and

i can't wait for our adventures in the year to come!

love, 
aunt sarah

honey cough drops and tissues.

I'm sick. (like I-sound-like-a-chain-smoker-when-I-talk-and-I-can-barely-breathe-through-my-nose-or-throat sick.) My whole body is sore and my legs are especially sore. Like I did 100 lunges yesterday. Or in the past week. I didn't. And I know I'm really sick when people tell me how awful i look. i must look pretty bad for people to be so honest about it.

still, in the last few days, i've had some happy things to cheer me up:

a book: i started reading the book thief. it's very different, but i'm liking the way it's written. a drink: corey brought me hot chocolate. yes, i ask myself all the time what i did to deserve such a good friend.

a birthday gift: leslie gave me a very awesome mug with handwriting on it. seriously, this girl gets me. and my obsession with tea. and england. and wishing i was british.

a wedding: olivia and justin's reception and an excuse to see london friends!

a commercial: even though i can't recall most of the super bowl (my mind was especially hazy on sunday) the trident vitality gum commercial made me smile. (also, yay green bay!)

what kinds of things do you do when you have a bad cough/cold? what cheers you up when you're sick?
