happy today

when i went home to visit my family this weekend, i found my grandmother's hankies in the backyard. they are so pretty! my mother has been going through my grandmother's things & she found all of these beautiful hankies. she hand washed them & hung them out to dry. i love finding vintage surprises : )



we had a picnic lunch out on the grass too. the days are getting so nice with chilly mornings & warmer afternoons. i love fall so much.
i've been so busy with school & life in general lately. also,....i got my driver's license!! haha. i'm turning 24 this year, & i thought it was about time i got it : ) (i really dislike driving, so i'm pretty happy with myself). 
when you are busy busy like i have been, & you are so tired at night (too tired to blog or write papers), you watch movies! & i've found some good ones : ) wild target with emily blunt (top photo) & the greatest with carey mulligan (bottom photo). i absolutely love both actresses. i loved what carey wore in the greatest & emily is always so funny! 
so tonight i am going out with my parents for a celebration dinner (for passing my driving test) & then i have two papers to write :/ aiaiai. ok that's all for now...oh i got a lot of movies from the library too, so there will probably be some more movie recommendations soon : )
