Cecily (my little sister) !!
June 29, 2009
Warning: there are a lot of pictures in this post so grab you a tall glass of lemonade and enjoy them
While I was going through these pictures of Cecily the song “Cinderella ” by Steven Curtis Chapman is playing in my mind and I feel like it is fitting.
She spins and she sways
To whatever song plays
Without a care in the world
And I’m sitting here wearing
The weight of the world on my shoulders





This is a typical Cecily face









Sabrina made us yummy Lemonade slushies!! and they were yumtastic

This is her i’m tired of the camera you can take two more pictures look… little does she know I took like 20 more!hahha


Then I became a true “redneck ” and rigged us up a slide!



I hope you enjoyed them! Hmm I think I want another slushy!
P.S. Do you like the pictures bigger sized??
Your Beautiful

I was on Whitney’s blog whitsgettingfit.wordpress.com trying to get my fitness tip for the day, when I stumbled across operationbeautiful.com/go check it out I got my fitness tip from Whitney and my life tip from operation beautiful I’m not even kidding! It is so inspiring I now just want to tell everyone I come in contact with that they are beautiful! At church Sunday a lady told me hey I didn’t get her name but she made my day when she told me I had pretty eyes, I wanted to sit a little staighter and smile a little brighter, I’m sad to say I didn’t return the favor and tell anyone that day but I will in the future today is a new day
Something that easy will brighten any ones day! We need to brighten each others day like that everyday with a simple compliment like “you are beautiful never believe other wise” It reminded me of the song by James Blunt
“You’re Beautiful” You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful.
You’re beautiful, it’s true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face”
We are all beautiful in our own way, some days it just seems so hard to remember to not be so hard on yourself but beauty is only skin deep, be more beautiful on the inside than the out! Thanks so much to Caitlan for starting www.operationbeautiful.com
So go make someone smile today, You can never tell from the outside how someone is on the inside they could be fighting a hard battle that they are losing and your smile could be what makes them start believing!
Sorry no pictures with this post !
Whitney’s Photo Shoot :)
June 22, 2009
After I took Meredith’s pictures it just made me want to practice on a person even more, so thank goodness I have 4 sisters! I feel they may tire of my camera soon! Whitney is the oldest and also one of my Best Friends I guess thats what sisters are for being your best friends when your life seem so hard they are always there with a hug and a smile to make it all better! We had a fantastic weekend We went dress shopping Saturday for ME and oh my word it was fun!!!! So Friday night Whitney put on her new dress and I said “Oh lets go take your picture” even though Matt was coming to get me in an hour he could wait a little while for me to get ready, we had a photo shoot and it was far to exciting to wait! I thought it was a great deal of fun of course I always think that when I’m behind the camera wanting to get new images, and ideas would just come to us and we would dash around the yard looking for the perfect spot to make them real!
So check out Whitney’s fitness blog (whitsgettingfit.wordpress.com) boys she isn’t taken!!! So run over there and tell her that she is gorgeous and you would like to take her off! hahha So now are you ready to see the pictures???









Ok we took a lot of pictures and I still have a few I would like to share so if you would like keep looking!

Hello blog world! I hope you are having a wonderful sunny day today! ![]()
After my awesome class that I mentioned in my last post I headed to the beach with my Sweetie and my future in-laws! Man was I excited to go be lazy… And lazy I was; sleeping late, laying on the beach all day. It was the life and I lived it up for a week! Just a warning: if you do not have a base tan DO NOT, and I mean DO NOT use tanning bed lotion with intensifier in it! I rubbed it all over Matt (my fiance) and he boiled like a lobster. Red. I don’t think he was very happy with me! (Matt, I’m really, really sorry! I promise to never rub any suntan lotion on you ever again.) I feel much better now that I have apologized to him on here. Why didn’t you tell me dear blog, that it would help my guilt if I let you apologize for me?
But back to the good parts of the vacation. We were at Surfside Beach for 5 days, and then it was on to Georgetown for 1 night where we toured the little town there and hit up the local Antique Mall, where I got a glass vase I have been wanting for the small price of $7! You heard me correctly! Usually those things are $40-$50. I was extra excited!!!
Perhaps you are thinking: Just get to the pictures already. If so, shame on you for not wanting to read all my ramblings!
With no further ado, here they are:

The beach at night No flash....

You don't have to worry blog I want be doing any of that!

My Fiance
))))

Isn't that the truth!

Well if we could only see a full shot of your face....

Yep your pretty handsome

Really cool seashell!

Us

Well hello blog can you find me?

Crabby today? (pun intended)

I was only slightly obessed with the seagulls but I will spare you

Sunrise, sunrise looks like morning in your eyes... (Nora Jones)

Lens flare yes please!

Something about this one I love!
