So I am on a mini beach vacay with the fam. We have invaded my sisters house on the gulf coast for the Memorial Day weekend and already there have been many high-jinks. Something about getting my brother, sister, mom, and myself together tends to lead excessive trips for ice cream, talking as loud as we can all at the same time, me getting in trouble for saying bad words, laughing until we want to puke, and teasing mom for every thing she does/says (poor mom, but we can't help it she's so cute!) I cannot stress how much fun we have, but the most unfun thing happens on these trips.....bedtime. I hate for the laughter to stop even for a necessary thing like sleep because chances are I've guzzled coffee and probably a two liter of coke all day (plus I was born a party animal) and I sit in bed by myself unable to sleep. Usually when I am trying to fall asleep every thought in the freaking universe decides to dance around in my skull which is annoying but tonight I feel kind of like Buddha.....I've reached a level of enlightenment (it's okay, feel free to roll your eyes.) I've decided that I am a good person, defiantly not perfect....but good, and my intentions for the world around me are good and I am not the only person out there that is good. I focus alot of my thoughts on the things and people that are so horrible in this world and alot of selfish thoughts and excuses on what is wrong with me but why? I feel when I'm so focused on the negative I am not celebrating all the amazing and beautiful souls that I am surrounded by. I feel encouraged to make every day into the most epic and magical day that I can even if that just means focusing on things differently than I normally do. I want to encourage everyone to laugh as loudly, genuinely, and as often as you can because I swear it is like releasing joy in the air and sometimes people need to breath that in! Okay enough tired mommy thoughts here are a few " pics" of our beach excursion using a cool app called waterlogue, it manages to turn my mediocre snapshots into watercolors. I'm definitely addicted.
