wow its been a great couple of weeks , i have done so many fun things!!! my trips were both so awesome, and i also had some fun adventures in between! look below for some pics documenting these glorious summer days (can they never end???)
first came one of my bff geli's surprise party the night before I left for Seattle!!! idk if she was really surprised but we had a fun dinner and took lots of cute pics . . . afterwards we went to starbucks to play cards lol good times
next i stayed on bainbridge island for a week!!! it was super super pretty and the weather is no joke perfect . it was right across from seattle and we had a view of the ocean and the skyline . bainbridge is a cute little upscale town w a diner & a pizza place & an art museum & a harbor . we spent lots of time trying to be adventurous and pretty much failed at hiking and kayaking :) the trip included a bajillion ferry rides , one of which took us over to vashon island to visit my grandma/where my mom grew up . we also went in to seattle a couple times where we shopped and went to a sounders soccer game which was really exciting . i liked to pretend i was on greys anatomy while i was there aka my fav show ever (christina is my idol). finally , the last day we stayed with my cousins who are literally THE BEST i love them

| r u gruene w envy?! |
have you noticed I like taking go pro selfies?!?!? (also can u tell i have a huge variety of friends? :) ) anyways, one day we set up three slip n slides in sarah's backyard and it was actually so fun (i wish i was a kid again). we also did a little swimming and geli lost what are the odds and got dragged into the pool in her clothes in front of some senior boys and i haven't laughed that hard in a long time. that night, we watched "we are the millers" which is hilarious!!! but don't do drugs ya feel
another day we went hammocking bc it was only like 85 degrees (thats huge for tx in the summer where its 95+ everyday). we ate pretzels and listened to music and felt awkward when cars passed us but its ok :) i rlly wanna buy an eno but i don't have $/a place to hang it in my yard . maybe someday???
later we decided to be adventurous and take a day trip to gruene . it was actually fun and gruene is only like 45 mins away . naturally , we stocked up on icees and candy for the "road trip". when we arrived the wait was super long at the gristmill so we shopped around for a while . they had some super cute tees & the town is super small and filled with boutiques . the wait was soon over and we soon went back to the restaurant to eat lunch . the waiter was so nice aw and i had a really good tortilla soup , only downside was we were outside and it was blistering hot . after about 2-3 hrs in gruene the heat got the better of us and we decided to head home ( i rlly have no idea why i typed that paragraph no one cares what i ate for lunch. . . .whatever this blog is mostly for me to remember my life so srry)

| stan goes to the beach go follow @adventureswstan on insta |
finally , we took our trip to seaside, florida and it was a BLAST!!! the road trip was ROUGH (13 hours not counting the stops but red box helped us survive). we stopped at some super yummy cafes to eat along the way (tried beignets and they taste like heaven), and split the driving up into two days . once we finally arrived , we went down to the beach and it is literally PERFECT . white sand, clear blue water the whole package . i finally sea(side) what all the fuss is about (am i funny yet?) we stayed in a house and had a party bc the kids slept downstairs . . . we did lots of puzzles and played apples to apples while listening to 5SOS . besides the typical beach fun (making ourselves sand mermaids , stand up paddle boarding , and jumping the waves , seeing dolphins) we also visited the towns of seaside and rosemary beach . they are pretty fancy and everyone rides bikes around its so cool . seaside had a block lined with food trucks and frost bites was everything they said it would be (#yummy). def bought some solid tshirts . thanks jemma for taking me!!!! ps i also had a lot of fun taking go pro videos on the trip and if u wanna watch the one i made for seaside or gruene just look on my vimeo ;)
going to get ice cream, cya l8r
