Little brothers not so little.

Today my little brother left to serve an LDS mission for two years in Neuquen, Argentina.
It's not a real thing. I miss him already.


His farewell was on sunday, and he did a gave such a good talk, and I made cute cakes.

 

Sometimes he teases me too much, plays video games when I want to watch a show, and writes gross statuses on my facebook when I leave it open..

But he also watches sponge bob with me, gets me drinks when he's in the kitchen, gives me free meals to cafe rio, and other marvelous things. 

It'll be too sad not having him around.

love that kid, see you in two.

I take pictures.

Me and my best friend have a photography business? Peaches and Lavender Photography

We love it too much. (seriously, it's so fun.)
We just finished editing a engagement shoot, and I wanted to share my favorites!

You can see the rest of the photos on our photo blog.

DIY Flower Headband

Remember these pictures? these ones, right here.

Well I made that cute little hair piece I'm wearing, and I wanted to share.

Materials: 3 shades of felt, yarn, hot glue, and scissors.

First. cut out some little flower, circle, and leave shapes.

Second. take your circles, and glue in half, and in half.

Third. glue your folded circles to the middle of your flower, and your leaves to bottom.

Fourth. thread your yarn close to the middle of the flower.
p.s. i pulled my yarn apart, so it wasn't so thick.

Fifth. I attached a bobby pin to each end of my string of flowers and put in my hair.
(I found I had more control over how it laid, rather than putting it on elastic or something like that.)


As always, I hope it all makes sense :)
And I hope you like it.

April, come she will

You know when you go through your day saying "Hey, I'm doing pretty good today"
Then life says "Yeah, rach, think again.."

Spring can't come fast enough.

It's been one of those days. 

p.s. sorry for the downer moment.

p.p.s. this is my new favorite.

These winters chill me to the bone.

Utah winters are very, very cold.
The snow is deep, and wind is chilly.
And most days I can't feel my face.

These days of late, have been busy, and full.
I apologize for my bad blogging skills,
and hope you're days are a bit warmer than mine.

I'll be seeing you a lot next week.
You can count on it.

and some movie reels to write quotes on, from our favorite movies!

ohhh and this way fun camera keychain. it clicks and flashes.

It was a happy late christmas.

Hope this new year is treating you well. 

I love your funny face.

It's wonderful.
