virginia beach

my beach vacation with my dad's side of the family 

was dedicated to relaxation. we slept as much as 

we wanted, we ate what we wanted, we did whatever 

 made us happy. the whole week was very therapeutic for me, especially 

when my closest friend, rebecca,  joined us half way through the week. 

i regret not taking more pictures on this trip but instead i was more focused on 

getting some much needed r&r. what is pictured is just a glimpse into 

what a typical day included. dragonflies, home cooking and lots of ice cream!

swallowtails

sorry for not having posted in a while! 

i've been very surprised to see that people are still 

looking at my blog everyday without me having to post. 

thank you! 

here are some generic butterfly pictures. when i 

was little i use to think that seeing a swallowtail 

was an omen of good luck.
