what. two days in a row.....

i can do this. i can really do this. if i set my mind to it i can keep from editing my photos.

granted. it's painful and similar to when i was ten and my mom made me stop biting my fingernails.

but i can do this. 

speaking of TEN. this is my niece and she's ten TODAY.

we celebrated her birthday on sunday. and of course i made her jump for me.

and speaking of fingernails.....

after we finished eating cake we set off on a long walk around my sister's amazing and gorgeous property. acres and acres of it.

her property has old fencing everywhere

and

i couldn't get enough of it

and

the old fence posts were scrumptious 

when we finished our walk i told my niece how i really needed a great photo

representing her turning ten. she wasn't too thrilled about the idea.

but entertained me anyway

sydney was her adorable loving self and i couldn't help but shoot her, too

and

as my parents were leaving. click. i got them, too.

i'm not sure if you can read "eye language" or not

but this says

"enough aunt beth. you're driving me crazy"

happy birthday sweet girl. you are loved and adored.
