Remember when I used to do "Scenes from Life" posts all the time? I sort of stopped doing them when I started using Instagram, but I realized recently that I miss having more everyday-life-type photos taken with my real camera as opposed to my phone. So I'm going to try to do them every now and then in addition to the monthly IG wrap-up posts. Anyway, here are a few pics snapped over the past week.
We bought some pretty hydrangeas for our little square planters on the front porch. I love that you can get purples and blues and pinks all in the same plant.
We also got a new door mat with popsicles! Having a fresh pop of color greet me as I come home has seriously been making me happy. And it may not look it from the photo, but it goes so well with the hydrangeas; there's some serious color harmony going on. :)
I mean, look how cute it is! (I got it at Target for $12.99, I think, if anyone's curious.)
We have been seeing lots of bunnies. Peter counted five in one afternoon the other day. And a couple of babies too! I think they probably like our yard because we have lots of weeds and wildflowers, haha, and we are always the last ones on the block to mow our grass.
We passed by this colorful building last weekend. I love that they decided one color on the trim just wouldn't do and needed like five. I'm pretty sure it's a co-op so I guess that means the people who live here are awesome.
Peter made me a little boat out of his metro receipt when we were sitting on the train. When I came home, I saw that I still had my homemade confetti out on the table from taking product shots of new notebooks for the shop, and it seemed meant to be that I should take a photo of my little boat too. :)
Hope everyone has an excellent Friday. I'm looking forward to catching up on some sleep this weekend and maybe taking a peek at some new art exhibits. xo, Mary
What a happy looking building. And I think I might need a boat instead of a bike to get to work. It's been raining cats and dogs over here!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE hydrangeas. They are my favorite- I even had them in my wedding bouquet. And I agree- it's so fun to have all those colors wrapped up in one flower. Great shots!!
ReplyDeleteThat door mat is rad and I love the metro receipt boat. So cute!

ReplyDeleteLove these little snapshots! Also your doormat is adorable- that has to be happiest one I've ever seen! I love it :)
ReplyDeleteThe buildings in Alexandria are so pretty! I really need to take a visit there especially since we'll be staying in Virginia longer than planned.
ReplyDeleteThe hydrangea are so pretty! And your new mat is great! Bunnies are just so cute...I can't help but pet the ones at the farm store every time we visit!
