    project 365 : days 295 – 301

    by Kaylah Stroup October 30, 2017

    295 : 365 Kitties, and a most appropriate shirt.

    296 : 365 Lurking around an old cemetery with my dude on a rainy day.

    297 : 365 One of my largest plants. Sadly, I think this guy is on his way out. It was thriving in my last apartment where it was able to live outside but these days it just doesn’t seem to get enough light. I really appreciate Professor’s grumpy cameo.

    298 : 365 Will I ever stop obsessing over these rainbows? I think not.

    299 : 365 My little sun kittens. You guys, all of a sudden, my two babies are becoming close than ever. I’ve never actually caught them cuddling with each other but they have been sitting together a lot which is a new thing. This is so exciting!!!

    300 : 365 My other life, at the flower shop.

    301 : 365 It’s been raining for like a week straight. I can’t decide if I hate it or love it. I did finally go out and get a cute photo with an umbrella which is something I’ve been meaning to do for like ever so that’s cool! Also, this sweater is the bee’s knees!

    Hope your week is off to a great start! Happy Monday!
    xoxo
