sweet tea + my canon rebel t3i!!

"friday night football is king, sweet tea goes good with anything

and the peace and quiet makes such a beautiful sound,

nobody eats till you say 'amen' and everybody knows your mom and them,

you can see who loves who for miles around...

in a water tower town." -water tower town (scotty mccreery)

a roadtrip in april.

 

 ((note to self: clean your lens. ))

>> two weekends ago, we took a mini road trip down to a part of Southern Colorado. my papa was delivering a few houses for his work, so we decided to ride along. it was so warm and sunshiney (yes, sunshiney is totally a word)  the entire weekend we were there. we drank coffee, listened to music, read C.S. Lewis, stopped at a lake, and took four hour naps. (they were ahh-mazing.) oh, and did I mention the mountains were absolutely gorgeous? <<

xxx.

p.s. my camera isn't here yet. I totally made a completely stupid mistake and ordered the Canon t3 instead or the t3i. Anyhoo, I sent the t3 back, and hopefully in the next couple of days my t3i will come. :) #lessonlearnedthehardway
