iiiit's HAT WEEK again!!

so to start off another week dedicated to delightful toppers (now that it's finally cold enough to wear a hat without having your head melt off) here is what i wore for church tonight!

jb darling didn't wear her hat because she was a little discomobobulated (yes that's a real word)... she got rearended yesterday 8/  and ht week officially starts tomorrow!!! yay!!

so i have my "wonder woman" dress (it has that cool squiggy thing on the waist) and vintage gold gloves from before and a vintage pillbox!  hot pink no less :)  getting dressed i was running around looking for the hat pins but to no avail... so i just had to not move around a whole lot :)

i'll try to post some detail pictures later.

loves!

Gallagher-ween

it was a dark and stormy night.....

well not really but i just thought i'd set the mood for our

Happy Halloween

post!   Since Halloween fell on a school day and 

we are busy little schoolgirls, we only had a short time to do this shoot. 

 Buuuut, we got to spend all day dressed up in proud Gallagher plaid!

this is even the official Gallagher hair accessory

by gift of JB :)

we found a book about us!!

;)

    jb found an interesting section ;)

'

we are still alive... i promise :)

dear lovely friends

i know it seem that jb and i have plumb fallen off the face of the earth but we haven't... i promise :)   apparently our teachers don't care that we're trying to keep up a blog!! anyway we have pictures from two "events' to post... which i will try to make happen this week.  we're on Thanksgiving break this week and i'm going to be trying to get things done like crazy!  i won't make any promises except to try to get these up by sunday.   tomorrow morning i'm planning to get some pictures of my sister in this cool little abandoned house on my grandparents ranch (where i am for a few days)... i'll try, sometime soon, to scan in and post some other pictures i took out here... 

anyway, while trying to work on my design project ;) i stumbled across this cool website that creates word bubbles... you can copy/paste a body of text or a url and it will organize the text by how many time they occur... super cool :)

so i put in WeTwoPair and voila!

i will not use this to waste time

i will not use this to waste time

i will not use this to waste time

i will not use this to waste time....

i will no....

ooo hey i could do jane austen!!!

just a thought on style

in my lookings and findings i came across this fabulous picture and quote and thought that they were just destined to be together :)

Posting as Mrs. Dork

Why, hello. My name is Mrs. Dork.

Yeah, I haven't posted since I got married (or much before I did, due to crazy wedding stuff), and, hello self, you've been married for almost a month! 

So basically this is my Hi-I've-got-a-new-name-now and I'm-married-now-!!!! post. 

Juju and I have had very busy summers, full of weddings (fine, just mine), adventures in Belize, camp, and more adventures. I'll be honest, I'm not even sure where all Juju has been this summer, since she hasn't stopped going! And it's really hard to get by without seeing your BFF for a MONTH!

We wish we were able to blog more, but life oftentimes gets in the way. However, we have some super cool/rad/awesome ideas for the upcoming months! And since we will actually be able to see each other almost every day at school, it makes blogging so much easier.

So stay tuned for some fun new challenges! 

Hearts and cupcakes!

time marches on..

oh.my.flippin.goodness.GRACIOUS!!!!  
i'm out at my grandparents ranch in west texas and it is hot and dry like nobody's business...there is only grass where the hose is running and where the windmill tank has run over...   not to mention that, after a neighbors violation of the burn ban, a good chunk of the ranch has burned, leaving nothing but a ghastly, charred, and spindly reminder of what was once there.  so in remembrance of what used to be and to memorialize the beauty within the burn, a friend, angela, and i went out and took pictures amid the remains.  most of the images are on film from my old pentax but we did get a few shots via iPhone.  i will get the prints scanned and posted (but don't hold your breath... you might pass out before i get them up.. (;  ).

today angela and i went into town to hit up the local resale shops before they closed and believe you me, we got it big time!  i went into town with $50 and came back with $17 and two armloads of stuff and a gallon of milk and 5 bananas :)   so i'll be going home with a total of 3 new/old suitcases, 5 vintage thermoses, and 5 new pictures in the frame, 2 more vintage cameras (and a flash) and one pair of vintage ice skates!  no, i'm not a hoarder... i'm a collector ;)

here's a bit of my score

sorry about the terrible picture.. i think the camera on my phone has like 3 megapixs :/

i'll have to post  better pic of that fantastic 70's mini dress that in the center.. it's colors are super crazy and it's super cute!!

until now...

my life, especially in the summer, is like one giant fruit salad...  i'm a mango and my summer activities are different fruits that are all chopped up and tossed together... so far my salad is pretty full of variety and it's only the middle of july!  as jb and i have both been busy out of our wits, our posting has been a little.. well.. nonexistent i guess you could say :/ tomorrow another fruit will be added to the salad.. but fruit is a rather strange way to refer to one of the largest events in my best friend's life... a beautiful ceremony that will mark the beginning of her life as half of a greater whole, the "better half" of something beautiful.


(please note that the above portion was written the day before the wedding but, procrastinator that i am, i am just now finishing it.  by this time the happy couple is somewhere off in the Caribbean.. )


anyway.. here is a sampling of the princess and the party :)
i can't wait to see the pictures from the photographer!!

 

anyway :)

i'm in the process of travelling to florida for a sort of family vacation...

(i saw process because it's going to take us about 4 days to get there... we only live in louisiana but we have friends and relatives all in between so we have to stop and stay the night or at least for coffee...)

(i say sort of because my dad has to go anyway for a big conference...)

so i'll try to take cool pictures... somehow since i currently have no camera

(digital that is... i'm going to take some with my vintage Pentax but i'll have issues trying to upload them (; but i shall try! ) 

toodles!
