I didn't care for the sun, 'til I was promised the rain.  

I've been learning to appreciate the things in front of me.
I know I'll miss:

+singing down main street with my sisters
+sunshine
+mountain views from my bedroom window
+simply being able to cook meals whenever I want
+inside jokes with these ones
+hugs
+my kittums
+grocery trips with my sisters
+dropping my brother off at soccer, and generally
just trying to embarrass him as much as possible 
+watching my parents pray together and be cute
+family time
+the incurable sunshine of CO
+the dryness of CO
+the quiet of the fields two blocks over
+coyotes howling and cows mooing
+the streetlight a block over
+family morning sounds of preparation as I wake
+my sister waking my to "borrow" clothing
+family prayer before meals
+mealtime
+watching my dad work in his studio
+running errands with my mom
+watching my siblings grow up

the list goes on.

The lovely M family have always been dear to my family.  The kiddos are precious, and the parents are good friends.  I was happy to be able to shoot them (oh months) ago.

This is a minute-long blurb, meant to express who I am through video.  For an incoming freshman video contest at my school.  It's not perfect, but neither am I, and this was a fun little project.

If you like it HERE(mine is the third on the list I think?), I could win.  ;) 

SPU bound 2013.

I love my family a lot.  These silly gooses.
