alexa rae: detroit

are you ready for sensory over load? 

yeah? 

i would advise you to take my word when i say that this girl is beautiful. 

but fortunate for you, you can see that for yourself. 

thanks lex for being my muse, thanks for loving taylor swift just as much as i do, and thanks for debating with me who her newest song is about 

{i am still hoping it is about john.. she however feels it is about jake.. she is probably, very likely, right}

all photos were taken on my grandpas Nikon FM2 - and none were edited besides the occasional black and white ones.. i am a sucker for black and white. 

thanks detroit for not always being the worst and occasionally making me thankful to live here. 

and thanks lex for having my favorite face. 

lets go back now, okay?

lets re listen to love story as many times as we can, among the tailgating people! 

fyi: the newest taylor song? iTunes alone counts it at its 177th time playing it, but thats not counting my phone and iPod or youtube... im not obsessed. but her cd comes out in t-54 days

who is coming with me to NYC that week!?!

im so far behind in blogging. i have finally gotten my summer to do list finished and set, now its time to move on to the social side of it all. which is this. so bare with me as i decide which photos to share and which to best leave in iPhoto to chill and reminisce together. photos can do that, right? share stories with each other and compare inside jokes? thought so. 

anyways. this is our trip to georgia. I suppose its only the favorite photos of the three of us. per usual, these are all from iPhone. 

maddie and kale are awesome. i can and have gone on and on {and on and on} about how and why i love them.

a kinda/sorta mixtape for this trip: 

kales choice:

maddies choice:

my choice: 

the avengers. duh. 

to make our moms worry  

we need to plan our next trip together! like, yesterday.
