Another weekend spent with Ky.
I took her to build a bear,
and she got a lamb, and named it Isabella.
She was really happy.
Just imagine smiles from ear to ear.
It was pretty thrilling.

The next day, we went to church with Ky's aunt Tina, and her grandma.
Then Tina decided to spoil us
and took the kysters and me to get our nails done.
HOT Pink for me & SPARKLY purple for Ky.

You see my FEATHER earrings?
They cost like $2.00.
Dang they have good shopping in Portland.

I thought I looked cute..yesterday,
till I spilt my drink all over me,
and had to walk around with wet jeans..
so I just took pictures from the top up..
because everyone knows I am wearing gym shorts in these pictures.
But for real I am.

Late Sunday afternoon.
Consisted of an impromptu stroll around the neighborhood,
in PJ's and pretty flats.
I participated in this apparel too.
Tater joined us and we strolled down the block,
and then someone started to whine,
so I tucked her into bed.
She then got out of bed, came on the deck,
and listened to my two hour conversation with Shelby.
She laughed when I laughed...It was so cute,
she was so delirious.
I have to say I am such a good babysitter
..since I pretty much let her stay up to ten pm.
But hey she's my niece.
And I'm a cool Aunt who makes macaroni for breakfast.
Pow.

I rarely find movies that touch me so much.
I was not hoping to sit down and watch a movie where I would eventually end up crying like a baby.
But it happened.
I sat down, turned on the netflix, choose an indie film I had never heard of, and fell in love with it.
It honestly was so beautiful, I texted my best friend as soon as I noticed how beautiful it was.
I would compare it to the notebook, but a PG version.
SO if you watch it, be prepared for a little life changing.
and a WHOA..when the credits roll.

My niece Ky graduated from preschool. It was so adorable!
They sang songs in spanish
..and wowza she actually participated.
It was great to see how a few years
ago she would of never sung in front of an audience
and this time she was all about it.
Ky is growing up and getting her confidence, so cute!

I like to wear this Fadora a LOT..
Wearing it means I so do not have to do my fro. & that make me so happy.

I finally did it! I moved to Washington! This move is apart of a long dream to live in the northwest, to be close to my family. Even though my move involved a lot of crying from the loved ones I was leaving I know this move will be good for me. It feels right.

I graduated! All the hard work was well worth it.
But now that high school is done and in my past, I am pretty scared about what my future has to hold.
I almost get sick thinking about exactly what I want to do with my life.
Questions and choices are lingering in my head and I have too choose very soon.
Reality sucks..I sorta kinda want to go back to kindergarten, can we work that out?
Overall I'm happy that I have graduated and am now able to begin following my dreams career wise..I just have to figure out which direction I am going.

I had an awesome eighteenth birthday! My sister Jen, came into town the night before and it was so amazing to have her there, waking me up at midnight to sing me the classic happy birthday, that was great. However, I was slightly grumpy though, I had the honor of taking exams on my birthday...shoot me. But I conquered and made it to my fabulous dinner at Magianos with my so of my closest friends and family. It was such a fun night, I wish I could repeat it over and over again.

Highlights included:
Balloons and cake from Jen
the best smelling candle & BEST gift card from the lovely M
silly card from Mr. R
RAYBANS & a HD video recorder...thanks padre
A super legit family next to us at dinner
funnnniest card ride home with all my best friends

I have been wanting to post this photo shoot for FOREVER!
Its everything I want my photography to be-so whimsical.
M, asked me to do some more updated photos of her! So we had ourselves a little adventure, trying to find the right location with little mama. But eventually we headed back to their property and we captured some of my favorite, photos ever.
Tomorrow is our graduation and its gonna be a sad day, so heres a letter to someone I'm gonna miss most....

Dear M,
The time we always wanted to go by fast is now here and gone. We will be thousand of miles away from each other shortly, but I believe our friendship can remain strong. Some people might not understand and say high school best friends will only be a memory in your past. But I know that we will come and visit each other; eat too much gelato, and take too long at anthro.
You are such a lovely girl, and I could tell you that a million times. But you don't even know how thankful I was to have you as a best friend. We had so much fun texting each other random pictures, tracking down those beautiful gray tennis skirts, maybe having too much subway, and all of our twin moments.
I'll miss you M!
Love B.
