Puppy Portraits

This week I was the MOST sick I have ever been in my life! I almost did not get some pictures because I could not get out of bed. So I photographed one thing that was always by my side: Opal! And I tell you, do I catch her in some awkward positions.

28. Chewing 29. Melding in to Sean 30. This was a "so sick, just take a photo quick!" moment

31. Somehow managed to lay behind the pillows 32. Sitting pretty on the ottoman. If her tush fits she sits

33. Mom needs to trim her nails 34. Waiting for me when I got home

Keep on truckin

7. Discoveries on our walk 8. Boyfriend trying to cheer me up 9. Wording 10. Feeling ill at work and keeping hydrated 11. The frost covering eveything! 12. The skies parting on a cloudy day.

13. Opal, today, playing with a pumpkin. She never ceases to amaze me. 

This week has been a bit of a bummer. I have been working every day, and seem to be catching the flu, but these photos make me remember the little moments that keep me going. :)

Revamp & Hike

Hello all!

I am back in action. Not only is it summer time, but I have graduated from college! School was getting so hectic that I completely abandoned my blog in favor of research papers. Well, not in favor, but I had to get it done. It feels great to be back now that I am done with school, and now I can focus on things I love again! Adventures, crafting and blogging!

You may also notice the blog's face-lift and new name! The original title of the blog (the oBitchuaries) was a reflection of the blog in that I bitched a lot; it was more like a newspaper column. However, now that I've really got a hold of this whole blog thing I decided that the name Lefties are Lovers is a better representation of not only the content but where I am at in my life.

SO. Here we go! (again) And I promise, I vow, that I am here to stay. I have time on my hands and I am going to use it to my fullest.

Yesterday Sean, Opal and I went on a a little (long) hike up Bald Hill in the Philomath area. Hiking is one of my favorite summer activities. Here are some pictures I took on the hike::

Heading to the main path.

 Getting on the main trail.

 Have you ever wondered what these things are? I learned that they are a reaction the leaf creates when wasps lay their eggs on them!

 View from the top.

 This is where we stopped for a little snack.

 Sean munching on a vegan burrito.

 Yummy!

One of the best signs I have ever seen!

Hikes are amazing. But don't forget your sunscreen and water bottle! I am so excited to be blogging again you guys! Also, I'm looking for some new blogs to read so please leave a link to yours so I can check it out. Spread the love!

A winter day in an itchy sweater!

This day my boy and I went out with our baby Opal for some fun in the winter sun! It hasn't been sunny in Corvallis in weeks and this day we needed to get out and take advantage of that vitamin D. This wasn't really supposed to be an "outfit post" (Im not a fan of those) but I kind of posed like it was one!

I don't know if you've ever heard the phrase "put a bird on it" but that basically is the running motto of my life. haha Portlandia. I feel like mother nature when there's a bird in my hair! All I did was take a bird and nest decoration from the craft store and hot-glue them to a piece of felt, and then glue that to an over-sized bobby-pin, and VOILA! you look like a crazy lady!
