Drops In The River

It's early Monday morning and I'm in a restless and sleepy stupor. Time passes quickly but effortlessly slow. Eyes blur and memory jogs. Remember that night on the balcony? Frustrated at the lack of depth in our speech. Wanting and wishing for life with feeling. Found but not noticed. How childlike; our ignorance- the very lives we dreamed of were the very lives we already had. How hard we worked to embrace the already possessed. As if holding a gift in one hand but expecting it to appear in the other. How silly we were; I only see now. I'm glad for that night, and for this night to see it. 

On the shore, speak to the ocean and receive silence
Only you, only you, you know.

Dusty Eyes

Nothing is sweeter than a late night diner dash with the one you love on a cold Winter night. I apologize for the graininess; it was late and I was hungry.

Thursdays

Why today kicks butt: new kicks, sassy nail polish, and my favorite mags.

Like Flowers At Last

Today I was planning on shooting with two of my closest friends, Sara and Katherine Christian. Yes they're gorgeous; yes they're twins. It was going to be awesome. But sadly, Father Winter decided to pull a fast one on our 70-degree winter. For all of you non-Wilmies, it was freezing and ice-raining all day and we were left with no place to take cover besides Barnes & Noble. It was fun though! We caught up, celebrated the completion of our first semesters of college, and laughed, laughed, laughed. Company with these two is always good company. This next week I'll be traveling on vacation with my family so get excited for some sweet photos ops Third Sun style! Cheers to Winter Break!

Taking Time

Reflecting back, this has been such a long, eventful week. Last weekend feels like it was two weekends ago. It was a good week though, with its ups and downs; both necessary for a well-rounded, character defining week. I was even able to manage to squeeze in time to visit with some close friends. But boy am I glad to take today to escape to Raleigh! It'll be my first road trip on my own. I'm a little nervous, but more excited to have the option to pull over at any given point to document the beauties I come across during my travels. I'll be posting that one as soon as possible for you guys! In the meantime, here's a little re-cap of my week so far:

Beach Baby

Penny is single handedly responsible for my love for babies. I was honestly grossed out and terrified of babies before I met this sweet little angel. Its already apparent that she has the biggest heart and has the sweetest laugh. Its crazy to she how fast she grows. I took these photos only a few weeks ago, and she's already grown two more teeth since! Seeing how quickly she grows and how much love she radiates really makes me appreciate how precious time is.
