hey, remember that time...

...when i said i would update?
like, a whole freaking month ago?
yah.
i don't want this blog to be a constant unkept-promise thing... but i secretly LOVE to write {it's my newfound love} and share, and it's important to me.
so i'm going to keep it up.
anywhoo...
it's been a busy, but perfect summer thus far.
i've been all over the place.
lake powell, indiana {all my mahself. i'm pretty proud!}, exploring my beloved utah a little more, girl's camp, friend's houses, ect, ect, ect.
it has been the most wonderful balance of relaxation and exploration and fun.
as i finish up editing/uploading all of my pictures, there will {hopefully} be a steady stream of posts coming your way!
xo, bee

3 cheers for summertime!

sorry for the lack of post-age lately...
but, i've been up to quite a lot.
school got out last friday and so far, this summer has been fantastic.
mostly, that fantastic- ness comes from a beautiful little place in beautiful utah that i love with all my heart.
lake powell.

lot's more on that little trip & other great things to come.

loves,

bee.

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!
