Yay! William modeled for me two days in a row!
This photo describes how I've been feeling a lot recently in regards to concepts in photography. Some times my ideas for photos are bursting at the seams, and other times it seems like they blow up and disappear before I can even think of them. Either I get an awesome idea or no idea. But there was a lot of positive support for my 365 photo yesterday on facebook that it made me really strive to create another smashing image (pun completely intended). Even though I will take photos even if no one ever says anything about them, it's always a big boost to have positive things said about my pictures. So thank you!
Tomorrow I'm meeting up with Aly again (those of you who have been reading for a long time have seen her before!) to do a 365 shoot, so it will be another day filled with awesome pictures, and I cannot wait!
A detail shot is on my photography page.

In exactly thirteen days I'll be headed off to college. It's no new news that I'm extremely excited and extremely not excited to go. The feelings are weird. But we're not gonna talk about it right now. ;) But in other news, I've been starting to think about what clothes to bring and what clothes to leave behind. Both of my parents are going down with me (which I'm super happy about), and the way the airlines work, each person is allowed two suitcases for free (or really cheap, I forget the details, haha), so my parents will use one suitcase and I'll get the remaining five. Though I hope I don't bring that much stuff, it's nice to know that I'm not limited. I do want to downsize though since the dorm room will be slightly smaller than my room and I'm sharing it with my roommate Annette. :)
If there's a Target in your area, you HAVE to go right now and buy these shoes. I found them on sale and they are the most amazing shoes ever. They remind me of those saltwater sandals that everyone seems to be so obsessed with, but these have heels. The fantastic thing is that they are incredibly easy to walk in and so comfortable, I've even been wearing them inside the house! Seriously. Go buy these shoes.
I hope you all have a fantastic day!

Thank you William for spitting in our front yard, haha. I've had this idea in my head for a long time, and I'm so glad I finally got to create it!
Here's a detail shot!
day 220
Sorry I didn't upload this yesterday. It was an interesting day, to say the least. I woke up early to go to an orthodontist appointment, and then my mom and I did a little bit of shopping and eating. Then I worked on sewing my dress all day (and I'm almost done!), until it was time to babysit. The kids' parents were supposed to be home at 10pm, so I thought I would be able to take photos outside when I was done. Turns out a wreck happened on the highway right before they were leaving the restaurant so the highway was closed for three hours. They weren't able to get home until 12:30pm. I didn't mind it, but the sun had disappeared and I was really tired and didn't put forth any effort in this photo.

Today I babysat the kids again, this time just during the day. All the neighborhood kids were out, so my job was fairly easy, just letting them run around. Other than that, it was more of the same: sewing, watching the Olympics, and nothing else.
