I love instagram. [I also am growing to love phonto, thanks to Adam Buzard, but that’s beside the point.]
I think instagram is fun because it makes you feel like you can legitimately take pretty pictures. That may be why photographers, the real kind, don’t love instragram. I dunno. Also, I just plain like looking at what other people choose to photograph.
And since we’ve been quite wordy this week, with all the job talk and alarm talk and all, I thought today we would just focus on pictures.
So I went back through my instagram feed and picked my top 5 favorite pictures… in random order.
. . . . .
1. The lake /// http://instagr.am/p/Jp57YRGyMQ/
I love when we get to spend an afternoon on the lake. It’s probably one of the best parts of a Nashville summer. Our first outing was about two weeks ago with one of our pals who is a member of the boat club, so I took this one off the back of the boat while we were floating around.
2. Cloudy Edinburgh // http://followgram.me/i/212470302_1271735
This picture beautifully displays how nasty days in Edinburgh look and feel. This was out the living room window of my flat, that has since been sold. It’s strange to think of this picture as once-in-a-lifetime since it was my everyday view for six months, but alas. It is.
3. Jett + Annie /// http://instagr.am/p/KY1-_dGyLi/
At this week’s Vandy baseball game, my buddy Jett went with us. When we decided to take a picture, he said, “When we are both famous, we’ll be glad we have this.” Awesome, huh? This kid. I like him a lot.
[BTW… I got parental permission before posting this picture. I’m not a monster.]
4. Glitter is my favorite color. /// http://instagr.am/p/IYSjApmyM9/
It’s just true. And this glitter polish is so cheap, with tiny sparkles, that it doesn’t cement to your nails the way the fancy stuff does. Happy girl.
5. Aiden’s boots /// http://instagr.am/p/HChViOGyA5/
I was watching Aiden while his folks were busy the other week, before we had dining room furniture. He brought his cars, I have lots of poker chips, we made a road. Plain and simple. I love his little boots.

I wish I was smart enough to tell you what each border and filter were for each picture, but I can’t remember. I will tell you this- Brannan is my go-to favorite filter.
