Watercolors, anyone?

One of the best things about smart phones is finding cool new apps to play around with. Today, I found a good one: it turns your photos into watercolors. It's called Waterlogue and it's awesome!

I was browsing Pinterest and I saw a blog post about this app. I was intrigued, so I downloaded it. Then about ten minutes later I saw a tweet from House Beautiful about the same app. I then spent the rest of the afternoon playing with it. 

At $2.99, it's more than I typically spend on apps, but I seriously love it! Now I just have to go through all of my pictures and find some awesome ones to play with!

 

Octobragram.

October was a very, very good month. We went home to Charlotte at the beginning of the month. Graham stayed home, my mom & I took an awesome little getaway to the Bahamas. We did the Komen Race for the Cure. We took Hermione hiking. We ate so much good food. And now I am very, very happy to welcome November, the holidays, and all of the fun that comes along with this time of year =)

Happy November!


Fruity drinks =)

Lifeboats are scary. Even when it's just a safety drill.

Beautiful beaches of Atlantis.

Pretty sunset.

Charlotte, North Carolina... Home Sweet Home

Our beautiful city turned itself pink for the Komen Race.

Hiking with our sweet puppy.

All eyes & ears.

So smitten.

It doesn't get any cuter. Period.

Trouble.

So sweet.

If only it were this easy to make a decision about the election.

Loooooove our monogrammed pillow from Ballard.

But not as much as I love our new Bassett sectional.

Pumpkin cupcake with cinnamon cream cheese frosting.

White Chocolate Cranberry Cheesecake

Cutest sushi roll EVER.

Best ever Apple Pie

The candy our office passed out for Halloween. Oy.



June-stagram =)

Well, it's that time... time for me to throw out my favorite instagram photos of the month =)

I am really surprised that so few of my friends use it. I wish more did, because I'd love to follow more people, and of course have a few more followers myself. If you're a fellow instagram addict (and don't mind being bombarded with photos of my adorable fur kids), follow me (stayinggolden83) and leave your name so I can follow you!

No cat is as beautiful as him.

Sweet, sleepy girl.

LOVE the folded paws!

This made Graham happy =)

Love the reflection of the clouds in the water.

Beautiful.

Graham needs to steal this sign.

Pretty clouds & C-130's

Decent grocery store sushi... the Outerbanks Roll

Cutest pets/bff's ever =)

Buddy wants to go visit Graham...

I love evening walks... just me & the pup.

C-130's are the bane of my existence.

I never realized how much my fish face looks like a kissy face.

Love this picture: My view at the end of my 6 miles with Hermione.
