Sweet {dis·po·si·tion}

disposition :
1. the predominant or prevailing tendency of one's spirit
2. bestowal, as by gift


okay so sweet disposition is one of my favorite songs.
if you haven't heard it then take a listen while you read this! click here

so for some reason 
i've been obsessed 
with a few things this week.


a couple people probably
already know because 
i bring it up all the time


my great-grandma passed away a few months ago. in the process of cleaning out her house, i have been lucky enough to take a few of her things for my own. see pictures below..


my grandma was such an amazing woman. she had such a sweet disposition about her. i love feeling like by having a few pieces of her belongings, a part of her will always be with me.


while saying goodbye  to my grandma while she was in the hospital, she grabbed me by the hand and said

"amanda i wish you all the luck in the world..with everything you do"
{my grandma's sweater}
{dresser- oh how i love it}
{my grandma had style}

"a moment, a love
a dream aloud,
a kiss, a cry,
our rights our wrongs..
and while our blood's 
still young, it's so young
it runs, and we won't stop 
until it's over.
won't stop to surrender."
                        -sweet disposition, the temper trap

{most comfy chair you will ever sit in}

                            {ahh the typewriter.. can't wait to write letters to a certain                                 someone when he leaves on his mission}


"disposition determines the happiness of our predominant spirit"
