I'm sitting outside on the back porch of our condo just thinking about how much I love the sound of the air conditioner. And...now that I think about it the sound itself is actually really annoying, but I associate it with summer and heat so the sound just makes me happy!

So, it's the hottest day of the week and I'm super excited to wear a tank top! I've been looking for a tribal print tank top for a long time and it was awesome to finally find this one at a thrift store! On another note I'm not happy to be wearing boots...even if they do look awesome with this outfit... We went hiking today and those are the best shoes I have for wilderness exploration. Why we went hiking instead of swimming on the hottest day of the week I'll never know...but it may have something to do with my mom not wanting to go during a slight drizzle because her hair might frizz. She claims she's a country girl, but I know there's a city girl in there just dying to get out.

We had a great time hiking though...even if we went farther than I thought we would. I was under the impression that we wouldn't hike that far because I have so many younger siblings. But apparently they have more endurance than me. I was done after the first mile...but no, we had to go 5 more miles... At least the walk was beautiful. Laura wasn't with me the entire time, so I tried to teach my 8-year-old sister, Natalie, to use my cell phone camera. I'm actually surprised with how well the pictures came out! I think she did a wonderful job! The rest of the hike she kept pointing out good places to take pictures. :) It was funny though when I tried to teach her the difference between portrait and landscape...she kept saying "lambskate." Oh, it was so cute!

I can't believe this vacation is almost half over! Anyways, I hope your day is fantastic! Don't forget to follow, and like Finding Inspiration on Facebook!
