And I'm all alone again tonight not again, not again, not again.

But, despite the truth that I know

I find it hard to let go and give up on you

Throw on your brake lights

You're in the city of wonder

I want to be you - whenever I see you smilin'

Cause it's easily one of the hardest things to do

Your worries and fears become your friends

And they end up smilin' at you

Put on a smilin' face

The colors have built up in my mind

They're bleeding through my heart

But nobody knows that they exist

Friends!

I love it when friends come home to visit. 

Who am I kidding?  I love it when friends get together in general.

 

Family Reunion

Saturday was my family's annual reunion.  I was especially excited to attend this year's gathering, as I was in Stephanie & Chris' wedding last year and couldn't go.  I don't have any siblings or many first cousins, but I make up for all of that with second cousins!  There are so many little kids and big kids we have nothing but fun whenwe all get together.  One of 

our traditions is to grab water balloons (and then anything that holds water) for a huge water fight.  The goal is to get anyone new 

soaked.  We eat a lot, play a lot, and I of course take a

ton of pictures.  Enjoy! 

Surroundings

I've been trying to go on bike rides around my neighborhood to get this new thing called exercise.  Hmm, we'll see how it goes.  To entertain myself, and possibly others, I've started taking my camera with me to capture the beautiful setting sun and green fields that are around the area.  It's a lot safer than riding with my iPod blaring in my ears. :) 

P.S. I also have this fascination with attaching some sort of lyrics with photos.  It's almost a challenge or puzzle to get the right one to fit.  I think it's cool, so just nod along and pretend you do too.  

Out where your troubles can't find you

Out where you leave them all behind

Out where the moon shines sweetly

Won't you meet me, down on the county line

Cause when push comes to shove

You taste what you're made of

You might bend, til you break

Cause it's all you can take

Everyday is a winding road

I get a little bit closer

Everyday is a faded sign

I get a little bit closer to feeling fine

*Note: Yes, I realize it's a pretty straight road.

Love burns brighter than sunshine

No I cannot forget where it is that I come from

I cannot forget the people who love me

Yeah, I can be myself here in this small town

And people let me be just what I want to be

Updates

I just felt like posting some new pictures. Enjoy!

Back on Track

Well, as you can probably tell, it's been awhile since I've updated this blog. Things have been hectic! Stephanie and I have been discussing business plans that will mostly bore you...except for one thing - our name! Milestone Photography is our name, and taking pretty pictures is our game. We are both really excited to start putting our words into action. We've been planning for (what seems like) forever, and now the warm weather is finally arriving.

We'll be focusing on senior portraits and family photos. If you or anyone you know would be interested in hiring us, please let us know: sb.milestonephotography@gmail.com . Dave is working on our site, and it's really looking good so far. I'll post a link once it's up and running, so you can check out our combined efforts.

If you want to be a model for us and have your picture on our website, let us know that, too. We love taking pictures of friends, because we already know you so well (and can make you do weird stuff, haha). Let me/us know if there's anything you'd like to see from a photographer or any comments in general. Thanks!

Also, some updated pictures of my cousins, the triplets.
They just turned THREE, wow!
They're still completely adorable...
