Changes

Wow! It seems like changes have been piling up lately. 

I'm going to share three of the main ones.

1. Styles

Not only my style has changed, but so has fashion's style! I remember a time that I couldn't find one skirt at Walmart, or a decent shirt for that matter. But now, I don't have to just choose an outfit based on it being "the only modest outfit in the store". Now, I have several things to choose from! (Which can be a bad thing sometimes. I end up liking too much!) For instance, maxi dresses and skirts. Long, flowy, feminine, modest....it's awesome! Yesterday I got an adorable maxi dress from Walmart for $16! It's purple and teal. :) Hopefully, I'll get some pictures of it at church tomorrow. 

2. Matthew! 

My baby brother is a baby no longer! Here's some comparisons.

Matthew today.

He'll be a year old August 5th. He's growing up so fast! He's almost walking, loves his family, and has such joy. He does have quite a temper when you're too slow getting his food. ;)

3. my photography and editing 

I never realized how much I had progressed until  I looked at a picture I took and edited in 2009. 

2009

last Thursday

Both were taken with great cameras, but due to my lack of knowledge of lighting and over editing, there is a huge difference between the 2 pictures.

So I'll close with this picture I took of me celebrating summer.

This was taken Saturday. It was June 2nd, and it was so comfortable outside due to the lack of super heat and extreme humidity. What is happening to Louisiana? We had a warm winter, and now the first few summer days were cool! Not that I'm complaining. :)

Oh, and one last thing. I made a music cd on Sunday. It's nowhere near professional, with my untrained, nervous voice and my amateur piano skills, but I pray that it will be a blessing to folks.

What are some changes you're going through right now?
