five links for friday.

missing all my sweet teammates this halloween weekend! here we are in all our halloween get-up before practice a couple years ago.

 and here's five links for a happy friday and a lovely weekend:

1. check out my dear friend courtney's blog, C is for. she's writing about her life and current battle with cancer (and about how her dad helped save the chilean miners! seriously!)

2. i was cracking up at these great costumes genieva found! all you need is a garbage bag!

3. love these prints.

4. in case you missed it, check out my friend drew's beautiful wedding.

5. if you've got a few minutes this weekend, listen to this conversation between the dalai lama and other religious leaders around the world. they discuss different principles of faith, and how each relates to the pursuit of happiness. i especially liked what rabbi jonathan sacks said at one point, 

"sometimes we don't need to pursue happiness.

 we just need to pause and let it catch up with us."

have a happy weekend.

xoxo.

in case you're interested, here's both the best and creepiest halloween costume i've ever worn. my freshman year of college, my friend alyssa and i were those crazy dancing people from the ipod commercials. it was pretty fun to dance around without anyone knowing who we really were! (and sorry for the red-eye, that just makes it even creepier!)
