I love this boy

thats all.

musings On monday (no. 1)

(alternate title: my incredibly random veiws on brackets and soda.)
What I'm musing about today:

-I've been thinking, musing, what is the whole bracket email thing? (So sorry to those of you who have your email advertised as such)
I do know that its just to represent a real email with the @'s and .'s Is it supposed to be artsy or something? Probably so haha. :)

 

-For those of you who don't know me personally, I don't drink soda; and I'm constantly telling my family and friends that they shouldn't either :) No really. I think many Americans consume so much soda, that it's really going to become a serious issue. (it already is somewhat) When somebody asks why they shouldn't drink soda, I say "Because it's so bad for you." ( I probably could have come up with a more original response haha) Anyway. The above picture shows all the effects that soda can do to a person. Now do you see how serious this is???

So, what are your opinions of emails with brackets and soda?
I love you so much!

tidbits.

1. I never wear hats. Ever. (except for tonight, I was in an extremely weird mood.)

yucky point and shoot photo.

2. One of my rules in life: If you want to ask someone something, ask it after they eat.  
Never. Fails.To.Get. A.Better.Response.Seriously.

3. (another wardrobe fact) People generally accessorize with black or brown. Me? Bring on the brown baby.

4. I am obsessed with poloraids. Really.

 5. I love my dad. That is all.

I love you!

Musings on Monday. True Story

Well people of the world, I'm doing one of those cliche blogging category thingys.
Introducing:
Musings on Monday.
ha. ha. HA.
I don't know what I 'm going to talk about on these Mondays for the rest of my blogging career. Just thoughts, and random stuff. Maybe I should call it Random Monday. But that doesn't sound as legit as musings On monday. (why the capitilized O and not the M's? I felt like it. Thats why :)
Soooo I don't have any musings to say today, but, I have a fun post planned for Wednesday so stay tuned :)
Or I don't know any other way to say stay tuned in a cute bloggy sort of way, so just check your Google Reader. K? k.

I love you!

Bribe Jar Results + Scary Vortexes

So, here is the birthday shoot as promised. I told Jeremiah: "pose like a model for me" and he gave me the above action.

He's spunky, that one.

Here a few of my favorites, Joel was in a good mood so he jumped in a couple as well.

 

 

Our creek overflowed and as a result we had these  super scary vortexes. We crossed the creek during the shoot, so I naturally took pictures :)

I put my camera on top of the electrical box...probably not the smartest idea...oh well! (I don't know what kind of face I'm making on the left photo...actually both of them. Please ignore my creepy faces)

^^^^^I have come to the conclusion that my shirt in the photo above completely washes me out.^^^^^^

Which photo is your favorite?

I love you!

p.s. All photos are SOOC

Sneak Peek

sneek peek of Jeremiahs birthday shoot. is this cheesy? I can't decide.

The bribe jar and it's superpowers

taking photos of him is a challenge. but a truly fun one :)

I'm going to go do an actual photoshoot of my 7 year old brother today. I told him "If you let me take like 200 pictures of you, and pick your outfit, I'll let you take two prizes from my bribe jar."

Ok, so The Bribe Jar is something I created about 6 months ago. Over time I've bought little prizes, or just get them from parties and events I go to. And now, it's full of little things that would make a little boy or girl squeal...
And....*cough cough* do anything for. Hence the name: The Bribe Jar. It really is a wonderfully convenient thing to have. Surprisingly my mom didn't mind. (as long as the bribe doesn't involve my chores)

So today I'm putting The Bribe Jar's superpowers to good use and gonna go do a birthday shoot for Jeremiah. I'm very excited :)

Results in an upcoming post! (annddd I'm still working on that fishtail tutorial, it's coming people. I promise)

I love you!
