Trip of a Lifetime...Documented

3 guys, 44 days, 11 countries, 18 flights, 38 thousand miles, an exploding volcano, 2 cameras and almost a terabyte of footage...all to turn 3 ambitious linear concept based on movement, learning and food...into 3 beautiful and hopefully compelling short films... -Vimeo

These videos and the stories behind them are truly inspiring, makes me want to rewind life and go back to when I traveled around Europe and document my trip in an innovative way like these talented guys.

Bottle Bangles

I saw this cute idea for displaying bracelets on Pinterest, and figured it was way too easy (and so cute) not to do. I guess you could say it was my first "Pinterest Challenge", a fun little challenge I saw at Young House Love. 

I found these cute old Coca-Cola bottles at a flea market in Iowa, and knew they were the perfect size! I just soaked them for a little bit in hot water and the labels came right off.



I was going to spray paint them, but I had too many colors going with my bracelets I thought they looked cool clear.

My bracelets are much easier to get to now that they aren't in a basket in my drawer, and this only cost me $2! I will try something a little harder on my next Pinterest Challenge.

A Windy City Wedding

Just got back from an amazing wedding weekend in Chicago. A great friend of mine from college married her perfect match! It was a beautiful wedding, and a great time with old friends! We made a long weekend out of it, and got to see a lot of Chicago, and do some fun things around the city.



The architectural boat tour was great! I learned a lot of neat things about the amazing buildings that make up Chicago. I have always wanted to take it, especially after seeing The Breakup. Our tour guide was great, but he was no Vince Vaughn.

Enjoyed some Chicago beers: Goose Island, Honker's Ale and 312 Urban Wheat Ale. I love the Goose Island beer tap handle.

Stopped to rest and have a treat, I had to take a picture of this amazing ice cream display!

Gorgeous Wedding (and wedding party) at the Assumption Church.

I know they have these street dancers everywhere, but I am still so entertained by them.

I had to stop at my favorite Chicago sandwich spot, Potbelly.

A 26-foot tall controversial statue of Marilyn Monroe on Michigan Avenue.

I saw some interesting pictures being taken underneath poor Marilyn!

Finished our weekend off with some sushi at Naniwa on Wells. This roll was the biggest I have ever had! It had 4 kinds of fish in it, and took me 3 bites to eat. You can see how big it is compared to the regular sized roll next to it. Man was it delicious!

What a great weekend with great friends and great weather! (a nice break from the triple digit temps we have now in KC).
