Beneath Your Beautiful

I just like their voices, the song and the music video.... I guess I like it all huh...

Labrinth feat. Emeli Sandé - Beneath Your Beautiful

She makes me want to cut my hair. Her cut is so great.

Another Year of Life...

Twenty and nine....... wow.... who would have thought that I'd see this day but I'm thankful to have seen another year of life. I don't always deserve it, but God continues to bless and keep me around. Part of me still feels like I'm 20 ripping and running around in these streets and the other part.... yea... the other part realizes I'm getting older. This past weekend was my birthday and I had my annual Birthday Dinner. I was so glad to see everyone that came out.

The Family 

 

My Brother Adam

My Twin who lets me invade her 

house year after year with all my guest. Thanks!

My gorgeous youngest sister ^_^ 

 Good food, good friends, good laughs and a good time.... that's all I'm here for.

So thanks to everyone that came out and made my birthday special. As well as to everyone that called, texted and everything else. I'm truly blessed to have each and every one of you in my life. Love you, KP


P.S. Can I just say I ABSOLUTELY love my dress?! I've been waiting to wear this dress for a minute. It has this grown woman feel to it, its so great. Ok.... I'm done now ^_^.

NYE 2012

I spent NYE in Toronto with my roommates and friends. We kept it pretty low key, just inviting over a few friends. You know me... friends + food and I'm good to go!

One thing I absolutely love about my girls is that we have a good time just by ourselves. We got fully dressed in hair, makeup and jewelry and never left the house. Truthfully.... I barely left the couch. I was sick and wrapped in a blanket most of the night,you just can't tell from the pics. Honestly.... I only got up to take pics o_o. 

My roommates.

I absolutely love these girls!!

The girls

Me and Anto

You gotta love Dwight. 

Strike a pose

New friends!

Happy New Year

If Love Could Have Saved You

This past weekend at my mom's church they had men's day, as part of their service they wanted to take a few moments to remember my dad. One of the elders said a few words about my father and what he meant, the men sang one of his favorite songs and since it was men's day they asked my brother to say a few words. So the night before my brother came up with the following poem.

Listen..... If love could have saved you, you wouldn't have died.


Live. Love. Smile. Enjoy.

7 Random Musings From the Weekend

(Its clearly Wednesday.... But I wrote this all out on Monday lol)

1. I really enjoy having people over for dinner and hosting. I wish I could do it more often.

2. Be confident. Sometimes you just gotta take a chance and go with it.

3. I actually really like skating. I don't know why I don't go more often. I secretly wish I could dance on
skates. I don't dance in real life how I'm gonna dance on skates is just... beyond me... but whatever.

4. I'm growing as a person. The loss of material things doesn't bend me out of shape like it used to. ( I broke the screen on my phone over the weekend...I was blown but shrugged it off and went about my day)

5.  Sometimes you just don't want to do anything, cook, plan, organize...etc. Everything is a down right chore!

6. Winter is coming! do you know how sad I am that its getting cold?!

7. The feeling you get when you have read a book in its entirety is great. Its almost a feeling of accomplishment.

 Tasha, Me, and the god bro out skating

and also my dinner guest :) 

 Skating

Live. Love. Smile. Enjoy

The Cold Is Coming....

I'm pretty sure that last Friday I wore my last summer outfit ( Last time wearing shorts) for the season. I abhor the cold. I'm a January baby born in the Windy City and can't stand the cold! Summer and spring are by far my favorite seasons. I live for summer dresses, short skirts...well...skirts period, shorts, tank tops, sandals and open toe shoes! You can miss me with layering, stocking and tights, jeans, boots, jackets and coats, socks and closed toe shoes... I'm growing weary and depressed just thinking about it! I'm trying to free them legs and be free! But y'all don't hear me....

A fedora and side braid is such a summer look to me. 

Free them legs!!! 

Goodbye shorts *sigh*  till next summer.

Have I mentioned I love off the shoulder tops?

Summer I'm gonna miss you and your hot weather and warm nights. Winter is coming *SIGH* but I'll see you in a couple months ~ KP

Live. Love. Smile. Enjoy
