Fall church camping trip - 2014

I'm finally going to post 
my Fall church camping trip pictures!
although i was only there for a day and a half!
we went to Indiana dunes (where we always go on our
fall camping trips!). i must say it is one of my favorite campgrounds
(if not my very favorite!).

i must admit i was very bad at taking pictures this
trip so i have hardly any!

when we arrived on Friday night people were all gathered around 
fires or going to bed. but than Grant and 
Hannah decided to take a night hike to the beach with 
whoever wanted to go! so i thought i'd join 
since i had been in the car the  past
2 hours.

so we all set out (most of us in pajamas!) 
with a few flashlights! it was so pretty
at the beach and on top of the dunes with all the
stars! perfect star gazing spot ;)




the beach there is just marvelous! and this time
i was able to go running in the morning :)
that was fun! and i suggest you don't wear 
tennis shoes! i ended up taking them off
within the first minute we were on
the beach! its much easier in bare
feet down by the water! (i don't even know why
i had the crazy idea to wear them in the
first place!!)
Me and Esther












i spent my day walking to and from the beach!
after lunch, me and some of my lovely friends went 
back to the beach, climbed a dune, found a warm sunny
spot in the sand and sat there for a few hours. drawing, talking
and making sand art!




the sailboat i made!


me and Michaela! one of my bestest friends :)
lake Michigan♥ 


 the sunrises  and sunsets are so pretty!

 went to the coolest observation tower
with these ladies!

 yet AGAIN!! i see a large bug
on vacation!

 the tower was only 2 stories tall, but it WAS
already on a dune sooo! it had a great veiw!


 here is Michaela again! such a cutie ☺



 Rebekah, Charissa and I!! too of
my very bestest friends ☺


Me.


and so, it was a lovely camping trip and
i can't wait to go back this fall (Lord willing!)

i apologize again for the lack of pictures, but
i didn't always have my phone or my camera with me!

this post has taken a whole month to put together because
i had some problems getting my pictures up! so i WILL
post about Christmas and my birthday... but i wanted to get this post up
first! 


i hope you are all doing well!

Have A Whimsical Day...

DIY inspiration wall

today i'm going to show
you how to make an inspiration / photo wall.
it is very easy and way to much fun ;D

what you'll need:

1. magazines 


2. pictures and a photo cutter! (if your
pictures aren't already cut!)


3. washi tape


4. colorful pens


5. scissors 


6. regular scotch tape to hang up most 
of your pictures ( unless you plan on hanging
them all with washi tape!)

so, start by cutting all your pictures than 
all your magazines (anything that inspires you
or a good quote, bible verse, etc.)

than lay all your pictures and words out.
 now you'll need to arrange them how you want them to
be hung up! (it's easier that way!)

than choose a spot on your wall and start taping! 

on my wall, i put the words evenly mixed in
with the pictures so that in one corner i wouldn't have a million
words and than no words on the rest of my wall!

here it is!





artwork from my close friend Hannah!


that marque arrow light is a gift i got
from my friends :)
and those are some of my Disney sketches!


thats it!

i hope you will have fun doing your own!

Have A Whimsical Day!
