Smiles.

This weekend was crazy but fun. I'm really glad I didn't have to try to post every day. Becuase I would have failed.

On Friday I had a surprise birthday party for my friend Anna. It was really fun :)


The thing in her hand is a "Quadropus." I made it out of a glove. I got the idea from Family Fun Magazine. I love it. Really easy to make, really cute :)


I'm not very good at frosting cakes. Hence the... interestingly shaped squiggle around the edge. It was tasty, though.


Anna and I. I should have cropped that, I know, but I'm too lazy... I hope you enjoy our lovely wall.

The next day I had a photo shoot with my friend Anna (a different Anna). It was fun. She makes a good model :).


(It's supposed to be a heart, in case you can't tell. It got a little squished.)


When she was trying to get on to the swing. Funnily, I think this one turned out one of the  the best of all of the swing pics. And she wasn't even expecting it.



Lollipop :)

So, while waiting for the pictures to upload, I was browsing my favorite online store, ModCloth. That place amazes me. I love this jacket, this tee (llamas!), this dress, this camera, and this cup. And... pretty much eveything else on their website. You should really check it out, it's wonderful. They also have a blog.

On a random note, I'm not feeling like this whole blogging thing is going too well for me. Looking back, most of my posts seem more like an online diary than a photography blog. I'm just posting some of the pictures I take and writing a bit about them. I need to find more... meaningful things to write about. I need more direction.
I've been considering in the last few days just scrapping my blog and finding better things to do with my time (like sleep). I'm spending so much time on my posts, and honestly, they aren't turning out very well.
But I've decided not to give up yet. Sure, there will be lots of days when I won't have time to write. So, I won't. And I've only been blogging for a couple of months. Hopefully as time goes on I'll get the hang of it.

I hope everyone had a fun weekend!

Well, looks like you had a fun weekend! I like the look on Shelby's face in the first pic. :) Aww.... I think you should keep blogging. I like your blog too much, and I love your pics. Oh, and you should put pictures in fb. Please? Do you even read these comments? This is too long. I'm ending it now. :)

I LOVE YOU STACEY! The party was so much fun, and you are really awesomely amazing. Do not quit blogging, I LOVE your posts.

P.S. Grace- That's not Shelby, that's my friend Sydney, who you really need to meet! :)
