to be honest, the last few weeks have been long and a little sad. not a lot, but a little sad. just sort of mundane and seemingly meaningless. doing the same things, not getting to really see or feel the sunshine, feeling a lacking in close friendships/community near me, nothing really to look forward to, blah blah. i don't know. just down. i don't mean to sound like a bummer, it's just how it's been. i think a lot of us feel those things to some extent this time of year. so it was so very refreshing to my soul when i had this saturday afternoon to look forward to, with these two beautiful and inspiring women, katie and emily. (like when i say inspiring, i mean emily johnson is freaking moving to thailand to teach english and work to rescue humans from sex trafficking... yeah... inspiring!) i'm thankful for it.
and we snapped a few pics while we were together. (the good ones were taken by katie beard, the great!) we did two of my favorite minneapolis winter things... minneapolis institute of art and the copper hen! of course of course!

beauties with such good hearts.
^^ oooh lexi lex... your hair's getting long, girl! like nasty long. i am semi-embarrassed (but clearly not embarrassed enough) to tell you that the last time i had my hair cut was... last january... yep. i'll just leave that there.)
if i ever have the pleasure of an afternoon in minneapolis with you, i'll take you to the copper hen and buy us a skillet cookie. i love to share beautiful things and that, my friend, is a BEAUTIFUL thing. ha. i also was thinking how fun a date with someone you really like would be there! huh?!
hoping for many more afternoons like these.
