Wordless Wednesday // The Pioneer Endicott

A few facts about this Historic building

` Built in the 1880's - 1890's. 

` 234 units

` It's on the National Register of Historic Places since 1974

` It was St. Paul's first skyscraper

` It is three buildings all connected and a parking ramp, in all it takes up a city block

` It used to house law firms, banks, restaurants, the St. Paul Pioneer Press offices and in the basement, horse stalls 

This is what I see every walk to and from home

Friday finds

Happy Friday! Yes, it's true mine was Wednesday:) I've been getting things done! I feel like a lot of loose ends are getting taken care of and it feels good. I hate making phone calls, but for som reason after I get it done I feel so accomplished. silly? maybe.

My mama's beautiful flowers, can we have summer back?

Yoga with Adriene  - Why have I never found this before?!! Has anyone else heard of her youtube channel or done her videos? She's good and it's FREE! I was thinking about joining a CorePower studio, but it was so expensive. So far I really like her videos and there are a lot to choose from, so I am thinking the boredom factor isn't going to be a problem. 

Mod Cloth - Where have you been all my life? Why have I not known about this online shop? So so many cute things here, I want it all!

All of these shoes - swoon. Okay maybe not all of them.... If you're about to get married I just found the shoes for YOU! You're welcome:) LOL

Learning Lightroom 5 - I know there is so much more to this program and I know I won't read a book  about it #boring. so like any other American I googled it and found this great youtube channel. I have already learned a lot just in the first video!  

Have a happy Friday and a fabulous weekend!

Ciao,

Rachel

Wordless Wednesday // St. Paul from the Cathedral

Around here lately

I have been very absent haven't I! Whoops. Sometimes life get's too fun and I run out of time to write about it. I can definitely feel fall in the air around here, warm sun and cool air. The walks to and from work are wonderfully refreshing.

It's kind of an iPhone dump. I'm really behind on editing my photos!

I had one last quick beach afternoon with some friends and my sister and her kiddos! I had to cut it short because of coaching, I was happy I could make it for the time that I did, though. Because a year ago it would never have even been an option for me to go! I am so glad I moved! 

Currently || September

I have been walking around with a hot pack on my shoulders the past few nights, seriously I don't even work full time anymore. #eightyyearoldbody

I just went to the Great Minnesota Get together last night. I'm really not a huge fairgoer, but it was a lot of fun with these peeps! Co-workers and I went to see Andy Grammer perform at the free stage. We're in this photo somewhere. Ha. He is apparently going to be on dancing with the stars! I'm going to have to watch it this season now.

The end of summer has been busy and FUN! I feel like I am finding my groove here finally! It's nice. It's about to change again next week, though. I am realizing I am going to have no life again ha ha. Because I will be coaching three evenings a week! Whoop, it's da bomb diggity.
