We got a new friend for Lupin. Isn't he just adorable?! Well, Lupin got the wrong idea and is a little (or a lot) jealous. :( They're both a little vicious towards each other but we're hoping it works out. :/

First Day of Fall!

I am apprehensive about the change of the season. I love Summer. But I also love what Fall means. It means Halloween. Warm colors. Cardigans and boots. Pumpkin spice lattes. Crunching leaves. Crisp mornings. Apple hill. I'm just not ready for the cold weather. Overcast, gloomy days. The rain. Oh well. 

Happy first day of Fall! It was 100 degrees today!

So, I've been shooting in film. I think I'm in love.

Spare parts.

Look! 100 days left! :O

I wasn't planning on doing a Lion King photo as a part of my Disney series but after watching it in 3D a couple of days ago I decided I needed to. :)

I remember seeing The Lion King in theaters with my mom and grandma when I was 5 years old. I remember crying my eyes out with my mom when Mufasa died. This movie is definitely one of my all time Disney favorites. :)

"Everything you see exists together in a delicate balance. As king, you need to understand that balance and respect all the creatures, from the crawling ant to the leaping antelope... When we die our bodies become the grass, and the antelope eat the grass. And so, we are all connected in the great Circle of Life."

My anxiety didn't leave when Hailey did. I was afraid of that. I've continued to have disturbing thoughts and nightmares that I cannot control. So that is the inspiration for the sort of dark photos I've had within the last month. I feel like it kind of helps me.

Helping me with the dishes, apparently. :)

I do love the pretty sunsets that Autumn brings. The colors just aren't like this in the summer.

I love afternoon light. As much as I'm ready for fall to be here, I'm sad the sun is setting earlier and earlier every day. :(

All you need is love

My last day of vacation. Trying to soak up the last bits of summer sun.

I was in 8th grade. It was picture day at school. We were watching the news in all of our classes. I remember writing the date and making the 11 look like the twin towers. I'll never forget 9/11/01. 

I pray for the families that lost their loved ones that day and I pray for our country as it continues to heal.

I've been going to Santa Cruz every year since I was little. I haven't had the chance this year and I feel like I've been craving it. We tried going last Monday and that was a mistake. It took us over half an hour to drive about 5 miles. Apparently everyone in Sacramento had the same Labor Day plans as we did. So we turned around. We finally went today as a sort of "End of Summer Hurrah." The weather was crap but that's ok. It was fun. It was calming. It was all I needed. 

And now Fall can officially begin. :)

He loves laying in the sunlight in the mornings. I usually join him. :)

Today is my brother's birthday! Happy birthday Cameron!  I love you lots! :)

My co-worker took Tomas and I out on his boat today. It was so much fun! I tried (and failed) wake boarding for the first time. This is one Tomas caught. I face planted about 3 seconds after this.

FIRST DAY OF VACATION

I've decided that this vacation is a seriously needed mental health break (although I still have to go to school). I am going to sleep in if I want to. I am going to stay in my pajamas until whatever hour I want. I might not shower. I might watch hours of TV. I might take longs walks. I will lay in the grass. Basically, this vacation is to wrap up my summer and do things that are good for me and my mental health before things get insanely crazy. I think it will be good. 

I imagine this is what I will look like most of the time. :)

I'm a space-bound rocket ship and your heart's the moon

and I'm aiming right at you,

right at you.

Two-hundred fifty thousand miles on a clear night in June

and I'm aiming right at you,

right at you.

Ello there.

I tried to be all cool and make my eyes in color. But it just looked creepy.

The top of the couch is his faaaaavorite spot ever. He could spend the day here. :)
