:) Perrrrty Photos.

My mom was doing a photoshoot with a close friend of hers, and at the last minute she asked if he could take one of me and her. There aren't that many pictures of just the two of us, and i love this one because it shows how close we are. Ever since i was born it's always been us against the world, growing and learning together. She always held me when i was feeling weak and showered me with affection when i felt alone. this picture defines our relationship.

I took this one myself, and i love it because it captured my baby cousin's real smile. His crooked grin always brightens my day and i just have to look at this picture to make me feel better. i love how the little gap between his teeth is the center of the picture, because to me thats his most charming feature and he wins everyone over with that smile.

This was at my mom's wedding this past summer, and it meant a lot to my mom that my grandpa was there for her. Moments like these are rare because it seems like my Gramps is always on the move, so doing the father-daughter dance meant he was willing to slow his life to almost a hault for this dance.
