steppin' out: colour ess-plosion.

whattup party people.

i hope you all had a terrific weekend because i sure did.  i had two photog-sessions & a whole lotta quality time with my two main men.  our weekend involved some around-the-house-DIY, some fro-yo, some of sam's tasty cooking & a whole lotta time in our sweats.  wins all around.

saturday morning we got the crazy idea to make a toybox/bench thing for the living room & after about half an hour of plans-drawing & designing, we were off to home depot for supplies.  our creation involves wainscoting on the sides, trim all around the edges, white paint on the outside & bright blue paint on the inside & chalkboard-painted-panels on the front.  it all sounds good in my head, we'll see how it pans out.

i did manage to get out of my sweats long enough to dress up for a few hours at church.  looking at this outfit in retrospect, i'm thinking i shoulda gone with my brown boots since the whole ensemble was loud enough without introducing the red ones, but whattyado?

ya live, ya learn.

i'm also kinda excited because i just purchased another big-girl camera lens.  i took the plunge & got myself the 50mm f/1.4.  it won't come for a week or so, so i probably won't get any sleep between now & then.  you can expect a lot of loopy posts on account of the no sleep.  this girl is excited.

and last but not least, a giveaway winner!  congrats to:
