(seniors) sam

i don't tell good jokes. at all. actually, i can't tell jokes. tired smiles need laughter to brighten them up, so i tried my luck today... "uuumm what did the living room...say to the...bathroom...??" "uuh i don't know tori, what?" "uuum...nothing! ...because they can't talk!" yes. it's true. that was the exact dialogue.  so sam, i apologize for my lame--actually non-existent--joke-telling skills, thank you for your sympathy laughter.  but despite my super fun jokes, we had an awesome first senior portrait session!

sam loves history.  you'd know that from 10 minutes of talking to him, and he definitely incorporated special historical sites in our adventure.  he's also the school yearbook's junior editor (represent pubby!), and i've had an awesome time working with him over the past couple years taking pictures, editing copy, and going insane. haha  he was comfortable in front of the camera even from the beginning, which was awesome for me and i think shows in the pictures!  enjoy!

sam was, as usual, super prepared with a bunch of options for what to wear and accessories.






this one is so sam...

this is sam's "attitude"...we had fun with that one haha


showin' of da bling! ow ow!


gosh the light on the library steps was incredible...

aaand just to prove my excellent joke-telling skills, here's his reaction to a particularly stunning joke...

coming soon...!

oh hey there blog world!
first off I need to apologize for my obvious lack of posts...although I'm not a huge fan of excuses, I like to think I might possibly have a semi-legit one...for about the past month, I've been finishing up my senior year so life has been filled with exams, internships, end-of-the-year fun stuff and of course, graduation (whaaat??!). it's seriously insane to think that these four years are over and looking back it's absolutely incredible to see all that God's been building and breaking, molding and shaping in my life. My God is so faithful and constant it's unreal. :) But anywho, that sort of explains my absense, although it doesn't completely forgive it. BUT. I have some super exciting updates which are pretty super exciting! so, here we go...

#1: my sister is a senior. (whaaat??!) and her entire class (and friends) are seniors too. (again, whaaat??!) therefore, many of their lovely faces will soon be visiting this blog. (yay!) so stay tuned for some beautiful faces coming soon to a blog near you!

#2: I just got an iPhone. (woohoo!) which is super exciting and means that I have a quality camera on me at all times. hence, many, many pictures. I already have 596 and I haven't even had the phone for a month. craziness. so, hopefully with that, I'll be able to do more frequent, random posts about beautiful things in my life. :) I guess we'll just have to wait and see where that goes!

#3: I've fallen for tumblr. seriously, whats not to love?? a super easy blog where people share thoughts and pictures they love. awesome. soo I got one and I'm quite a fan. I'm going to start postin random iPhone pictures and verses from what I've been reading so it's going to be pretty awesome. check it ooout here! (do it!! you know you want to...)

so those are some super exciting things coming to a blog near you! be sure to stay tuned! :)
...and because blog posts are better with pictures (duh), here are some graduation roses (*sigh*)...
