Beautiful Bride! (WE STAN A QUEEN!!) Congratulations Elise and Grant! 
Rodeo Drive! - July 7. That random gas station on the way to Mammoth where the women’s bathroom line is always 6 miles long while the mens takes .03 seconds to get through.

Daisy and I are sitting in childs booster dining seats. yes, we fit. yes, we are children. and yes, we’re as cute as we are silly. - July 9. Lake McCleod, Mammoth Lakes, CA.

- July 9. Shady Rest Campground, Mammoth Lakes, CA.

I love this picture that Keely captured because it’s one of me genuinely laughing. (Probably at an “I barely know her!” joke… That I cracked.) I was with my favorite people in my favorite place sporting my favorite jacket to wear when camping. And I think I’d just eaten a s’more which is why I was covering my mouth. Anyway, I will forever be in admiration of Keely’s talent of capturing candidly beautiful moments like this. Thank you Keelan. - July 10. Lakewood, CA.

- 7/11. Various 7/11s in the 562.


I tried to justify drinking four slurpees in a day with the fact that I’d totaled 11 miles of running and six+ miles of biking that day. Work hard, play hard (in other words: what in the world is “moderation?”). - July 11. LBCC.

- July 12. Bek’s House.

we sometimes do these really nice dinners at Bek’s house. this time around, some of the boys cooked for us, while us girls wore cute clothes and looked pretty. it is always so nice to just hang out with my best friends while we also look our best, simply for the reason that we can. I love this group of people. I also love the fact that, since graduating high school, our group of friends hasn’t shrunk from people drifting away. rather, it’s gotten even bigger! How cool is that?! what a blessing these peeps are to me :) - July 13. LA, CA. (Little Tokyo).

squad 🆙 - July 17. Carson, CA.

our smiles are tired but our souls are refreshed. Hannah is familial, familiar. good company. a sister. - July 18. Seal Beach Pier, CA.

my calves were suffering this week. So instead of my fartlek, I biked 20+ miles. S/o to Kenneth for generously lending me his bike! - July 18. Lakewood, CA.

we took the puppers to the dog park for the first time in a while!!! 
LOOK AT THAT HAPPY PUPPER. - July 18. Azusa, CA.

quiet time. I like to, quite literally, go up to a High Place to be with the Lord. I believe every person should have a local “safe place” to go, and this is one of mine. - July 24. Carlsbad, CA.

Golden Hour lifeguard tower.

my roommate and I have started this summer tradition where we text each other every time we’re at the beach or when we go on a trip. this is the one I sent her from Carlsbad. 
sunset - July 26. Local nearby high school.

as a mi-distance runner, I THRIVE off of time on the track. cross country tends to be a rough time for me because it’s such a long period of time to train without track-based speed work. this season our coach added in a new xc workout on the track, and it gave me so much LIFE to do! here’s me draining my legs after the run, feat. mismatched socks :) - July 29. Redondo Beach, CA.

PC @ keelan long ! - July 29. Bakers and Baristas.

lunch with my dear friend Amanda! what life-giving company she is! love you chica! - July 30. Angels Stadium, CA. (for the record, I’m a Dodger fan. #WestSiiiiide)

michaelangelo clouds 
sunset city - July 31. Bedroom Window.
