built a couple forts, played with trash, collected beach glass, and stacked rocks along the shores of Lake Erie.

finally saw a real headstone with a skull and crossbones on it!
yeah, my bucket list is a little strange…
got glasses!
(…and then another pair, and another and somehow ended up with a small collection!)
started geocaching + found lots of neat places along the way.

that we still haven’t moved into.
turned twenty-six and honestly had the best birthday party ever.
hunted down waterfalls all over Ohio.
created a hashtag for my cat and his stupid faces.

these ridiculous photos never fair to cheer me up.
crushed on the ocean…
… and the desert.
discovered that I love coffee.

And oh so much more!
