balloons = happiness.

if you couldn't tell, me and haley really like photoshoots.

and when you add balloons as props to those photshoots, we super-duper-really like photoshoots.

{sorry the collage isn't fantastic-ly crystal-clear... i need to widen my blog desperately.}

don't worry... we did, in fact, suck in the helium and sing popcorn popping on the apricot tree {oh, those primary days...}. sadly, the video refuses to upload. sad day for all. all i can say is, popcorn's a-poppin'.

loves,

bee.

cranbrooks, flowers, and sunflares.

summer is pretty much here.
i am sosososo excited!
i just really love summer.
like, a lot.
so, greet the glorious sunshine, haley and i broke out {just kidding, they're always out} our beloved cameras, dusted off our lovely cranbrook cruisers, and headed to a neighborhood field during prime sunflare hours.
i just really love sunflares.
like, a really whole lot.
knowing us, you'd best believe we took a whole boatload of pictures.
'cause we did :)
here's just some of them. {i'll spare you from having to scroll through all 250 of them. we took them all in under 35 minutes, mind you. pretty sure that's a personal record:) }

i told you there were a whole boatload of them. sorry if your brain went into photo-overload:)

i just couldn't decide:)

right now....

okay, so i wouldn't necesarily use the word 'hate' for the situation, but this applies nicely to the way some people {okay, one} are acting in my life. it breaks my heart!
you know what?
i hate drama.
i hate it when people hate people.
it's not cool. for reals.
i feel like i have picked some fantastic friends. believe me, i am quite selective.
and we rarely come to disagreements. actually, we never do/have.
how about you simply talk about it instead of secretly doing things to hurt? that's a good plan.
but sometimes, we have to do what we know is best, out of pure love.
and if others can't see that right at the moment,
whatevs.
i hate to be a downer on my happy little corner of these here internets, but i had to share that great little blog post.
because whatever we do, we should do it with love and christ-like compassion.
anywhoo, i'm still workin' on my little design-situation.
be patient with me.
lots of love to ya!

me oh my.

dang flabbit- i had my blog all cutesy and then it got all messed up.
so, blog readers {all one of you:) } please excuse the classic-cliche-nastiness for a while while i re-cutesy.
merci!

city creek's where it's at!

my amazing-bestest-friend-ever haley {check 'er out here} invited me to go to city creek with her aunt, cousins, and sisters for her 15th birthday! let me tell you, i haven't laughed so hard in a long time. we slept over at a hotel and then woke up early {9 is dang early for us teens:) } to head on over to the new city creek. it was glorious and sparkly and schtuff. serious. we lusted over jewels at tiffany's {oohhh! lookey- shiny stuff! }, tried our best to not break 3,000$ shoes at nordstrom's, and fangirled at forever 21. i would buy every. single. thing. in that store, if i could.

it was a blast.

i love friends.

i love singing at the top of my lungs. harmonizing, no less {i've mentioned that before. but, it's even better with a car full of silly girls:) }

i love shopping.

i love birthdays.

i love european style hotels.

i love late- night juice runs {don't ask:) }

{look! we have our own safari... of pillow pets :) }

{take a good, long look at these bad boys. complete with randomanimalhair and silk flowers. they could be yours for only 3,000 buckaroonis.

really people?}

moving on....

{our dapper bunch in front of tiffanys.}

{haley and i in front of our favorite store... except maybe target. :) }

{the beautiful hoch girlies}

{the disney store is pure magic. we love rapunzel hair!}

thanks so much for making this happen auntie mo! it was so fun!
