i'm sorry.
i didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings or ruin anyone's birthday.
it just hit me. hit me hard.
jealousy, depression, longing, envy.
there is something in every single one of you girls that i wish i could have in me. whether it's beauty, strength, religion, or even wealth and boys. it all gets me sometimes. and the other night it got me real good. everything is just so overwhelming lately and i just needed a day off- which i used by the way, sunday i was in my bed all day. i watched 5 movies and only got out from under my sheets to go to the bathroom or heat up my wheat bag.-but it helped. i feel refreshed and i'm sooo ready for the new year. holla!
love aways, katie

katie, i miss you.

w+j family photos

So, as you all know i am officially obsessed with photography. And i LOVE doing it. If you ever know anyone that is in need of a photographer i have no problem with lending a hand. Also for the record: it's not a hassle! i love doing it and it doesn't bother me. So this past sunday i headed out to my aunts house to do her family pictures. She has six kids, and boy was it probably the hardest thing i've ever done. But they were so cute and the pictures turned out adorable. But just so you guys have a little taste of what went on, i will tell you. So on sunday as you all know it was a little drizzly. But all is well i thought, until at last when all the kids were ready, it started to rain, like rain rain. So we postponed it for a half hour to wait for the storm to past. And while the clouds were taking there jolly good time to float away, all six of the kids were getting a bit antsy. But finally we got down to business. Kimmy, the cute blonde twin had no problem smiling at first, but her smile progressivly became a frown. Ha but it was a dang cute one. Also, since we decided to use her backyard as the location, they had there chickens, to big black labs, and a goat named Kevin running around. But no worries they played into the pictures nicely, as you can see. I hope you guys are proud of me. And i was just to dang excited about these to not show you guys. So, enjoy.

the valley

wouldnt it be wicked if we had our own tv show? yeah, i know, totally. not the hills, or the city, but..THE VALLEY.

this is what you need to have a tv show: a group of best friends with lots of drama. (hey thats us!)

one girl likes that one boy. but the friend used to like him too? she kisses him. but likes someone else? she breaks up with him but then kisses him tonight!!! (THAT ONE IS ME!). he likes her but her heart is some where else. she texts him but she shouldnt. shes running out of money but goes shopping anyways. her parents are fighting but she fights back. she likes him but he has a girlfriend. he writes her but is she the only one? shes dating him but kisses someone else. he kissed her but...

yeah, there is always that but. and that but is what makes the show.

RIGHT THERE BABY! the but makes the valley.

and honestly, i love the buts..hahaaa

love always,

katie

Finally Mr. Thruston decided to answer me back to winter and how did he do it? No other than KITTENS. yes kittens. Here are the pictures of Molly and Dancer :) renamed to Bella and Jacob! As of now they are residing at katies for the night while i am stuck here with my mother who has been possessed by satan and lost all sympathy for cuddly little animals. but anyways i am still so happy because its the thought that counts right? even though i cant keep them...how many boys buy two cute cuddly little kittens just for you? not too many.

i FOUND it. [my Camera]

Well, it was never lost, SARAH STRADLING was just holding out on me.

No biggie though!

But anyways, I know this is super late, but here are some pictures of my adventures during October Break! Over the break, I went to Cali with the lovely Maddy Tipton and Kami Johnson. I had a blast, but I definately MISSED YOU GUYS A TON! <3kim

uh hmm...

ok, i love the new background. but i gotta say... that santa is really creepY.

thats all,

kenzie

Well, Katie you inspired me with that cute little post about Matty-boy so i decided i would post something that would make you laugh and is somewhat..very cute. It is from of course the one and only isaac (who we all know is in iowa right?) and he sent it to me today. silly boys....they're so hot and cold. i dont even know what to do with the kid anymore? :)

the sky is blue
the grass is tall
i wont let you lose
i wont let you fall
the mornings are quick
the days are few
somtimes im a prick
but i know i love you
im sorry im such a wah wah
but to you i like to lingo
even though my words are "blah blah"
we should still go play some bingo
i rode some horses
i petted some CATS
i slept in a pallet
and i killed like 50 rats
only 24 more hours
for the craziness to come
bugs are climbing onto my pores
but i beat em off like a drum
i'm glad i will be away from this
i hope you will be too
i'm ready to give you a big fat kiss
the next time i see you

cute right? silly boy.
P.S. I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT LAST NIGHT WAS KINDA A BIG DEAL. AND TO SARAH AND KENZ: I LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH NO MATTER WHATS GOING ON. I HOPE YOU BOTH KNOW HOW IMPORTANT YOU ARE TO ME AND THANKS FOR OPENING UP AND IM GLAD WE HAD THAT TALK. AND TO THE REST OF YOU....I DONT KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO WITH OUT YOU. IM SORRY ABOUT EVERYTHING AND I REALLY HOPE THAT OUR FRIENDSHIP CAN GET BETTER GUYS CAUSE YOU ARE THE BEST FRIENDS ANY ONE COULD EVER HAVE AND IM SO GRATEFUL FOR EACH OF YOU.

sexy6 baby.
love sarah fraz.
p.p.s. sarah please post things on the blog because i love you and i dont want you to feel left out. :)

rain rain..

go away. JOKE. i love the rain. but not as much as i love rainbows! this one was so big i had to take to pictures!

thats cute. NOT.

i was thumbing through my notebooks of randomness tonight to find some funny quotes for our little side bar thing when i ran across the cutest thing id ever read. so pretty much every girl has a boy that theyre (not so) secretly in love with. and sometimes that boy says really sweet things even though all he's really doing is trying to lure you in with his magical words of lies that you believe until he rips your heart out and stomps on it and then leaves a nice juicy luugiee right on top for ya. how thoughtful. but anyways! i thought that tonight we should appreciate the good side of boys before we bash on them. soo..this is what mr. smooth talker said to me:

i like how modest you are. i like how you dont want to get too into it when you kiss. i like how you would rather talk than kiss. i like how beautiful you are. i like how you get that huge dimple when you smile. i love your smile. i like how you are always happy. i like how you know the church is true. i like how independent and responsible you are. i like your brown eyes. i like your lips too. i like how you don't take yourself too seriously. i like how smart you are. i like you katie.
*did you notice how he pointed out looks before brains? aka shallow.

wow. isn't it weird how i used to believe him. i fell for him. hard. it came to my attention today that its been almost a year. a WHOLE year for pete's sake. thats a long time. long enough for me to realize that he says the same thing to all his girls. he's the only boy that i regret. and thats a strong word. regret. its like hate- its strong. and if he forgot about me so easily, then BAM i forgot about him...matt who?

F.M.L. please

So, when you are faced with the question "get hit by a car...or eat the ground with your face?" i chose = eat the ground with my face (as you can see)

everything in my body hurts and my nose is really swolen and they think i need stitches but i said H no please. sooo basically i just hope it doesnt look this bad for WINTER FORMAL :(

anyways HAPPY TURKEY DAY GIRLS.

i love you all soooo much.

p.s. zoom in. its SIIICK. literally

with love,

Sarah Fraz

BESTIES

just thought you should know, this picture like explains our relationship.

the obsessed photographer

As you all know, i am officially OBSESSED with photography. And with this obsession, comes a want to take pictures... all the time. So i finally suckered Sarah into letting me photograph her. And even though she was VERY bitter about it at first, her model side kicked in quickly. And the pictures turned out absolutely GORGEOUS. I have to admit being the photographer, at first sarah's  "smise" was... hmm... well awkward. But, in about 15 minutes she definately mastered the look (as you can tell). Thank you sarah sooo much. I definately appreciate it! And to all of you, if you know anyone that wants pictures taken, tell them i am happy to do it. 

Love you all,

KENZIE

Boxcar Children

i feel kinda toasty... like i should pop out of the top!

tonight kim and i (katie) got to drive sarah's perfecty precious purple scion. during our little three mile ride two things happened. one: i didn't crash! and two: i only ran one red light, blasted one song, and got one speeding ticket. hah! JOKE. i would never do that...in sarah's car.

-Tea Time-

On our wednesday off, we decided to shake things up and have a lovely little tea party! it was super duper fun. So, for this event mallory helped us out by avoiding the hassle of deciding who is bringing what by just deciding for us. Thx Mal! I (Kenzie) was assigned to bring tea cakes (AKA chicken salad sandwiches). Next Katie who's had past catastrophies with her oven, was to BAKE some scones. And dang were they good! She made both chocolate chip or cinnamon scones. Yummm. Sarah brought the amazing lemon bars, which turned into lemonADE bars towards the end. Haha. And Mallory, well she assigned herself to bring the "tea". ha. We had the choice of Lemonade, or Chai tea. Although the chai tea didn't quite work out... so we settled on lemonade. Which was just as good. And then our wonderful hostess Kim! She did a beaUtiful job setting up our little party. And she of course provided us with the gurgle pot, as seen above, or whereever. And lets not forget the adorable teacups that we used for our lemonade! haha. We had just an awesome time, and I can't wait for what off-the-beaten-path thing we do next. TaTa for now, I am off for some tea.

Thx, and luvvv you guys bunches

KENZIE.
