This post has been sitting on my computer for a few days now. I have been at a loss of words to fully describe the one friend who has been with me since birth. We were born and raised as next door neighbors and have been best friends ever since. We played Barbies together, rode bikes together, played soccer together. We did everything together. There are many times when our separate lives in separate states are very busy and we don’t talk. But, it doesn’t matter, because when we are together and when we do talk, it’s like we were never apart. I am blessed and extremely grateful for her love, support, and friendship through the years.

And THEN you add Bryan to the mix. Bryan and I were good friends before the two of them decided to fall in love, get married, and give the world four beautiful babies. So, I get a double bonus in this relationship and I love the entire famdamily dearly!!!!

These were taken while we were visiting in Utah this summer. Just an evening on the lake, hanging with my besties, and their pretty red boat :)

ryan and sarah…newlyweds!

August 29, 2012

Ryan is my brother in law. Ryan was my good friend long before I even met Travis (my hubs). I adore Ryan like crazy. Sooooo, I was a little freaked when he says “I am dating a girl named Sarah, and oh yeah, we are getting married next month.” Ok, so it didn’t happen quite that fast, but it was fast. Who was this girl who was sweeping into the family and I had never even met her? Skeptical? You betcha.

So, they did get married, and we sadly weren’t able to attend the out of state wedding. When we headed home to visit this summer, we were finally able to meet this brother-in-law-stealing-girl I had been hearing about. And, I loved her. Instantly. She is funny, sweet, amazing to Ryan and his girls, and all around perfect for Ryan. And a perfect fit into our family.

Ryan, I love you like always. Sarah, I love you as a new sister. And, I TOTES love you guys together :)

Annnnnnd, if you want a peek into their personalities, the next photo sums it right up :) Love you guys!

insecure

August 1, 2012

You’re insecure,
Don’t know what for,
You’re turning heads when you walk through the door,
Don’t need make-up,
To cover up,
Being the way that you are is enough,

Everyone else in the room can see it,
Everyone else but you…

Anyone who has turned on the radio in the last six months has heard this One Direction song. Why am I singing it for you now? Because I can’t stop giggling as I think about the entire Willard family getting their photogenic on by singing this song together. And dancing. Needless to say, I was thoroughly entertained the entire session.

I’ve been talking to Kelli and Shane via the internet for a long time now, and we were finally able to meet for the first time during my trip to Utah. They are the kind of people that make you feel like a better person just for crossing paths with them. What a cool, awesome, rad, fantastic family. And they have awesome clothes :)

And finally, a mini session on how to model from the model divas themselves…
