Baby Breckin::Six Months

In October, I was lucky enough to take some more photos of this cute little guy. Scotty and Jess are the nicest couple and have the most well behaved, sweet boy.

Here's when baby B was still in mom's tummy during their Maternity Pictures.
And only at a couple weeks old, Mr. Breckin.

Carla::Graduation Portraits

I had the opportunity to take my best friend's graduation portraits this month. She's graduating from ASU in the fall; she's getting her bachelor's degree in secondary education ans is going to be an amazing teacher.

I have known Carla for a very long time, we've gone through many [awkward] stages in life. We were silly middle schoolers, loud and obnoxious, terrorizing malls and any other public location we went to.

We entered high school, still in our awkward stages, ready for a new phase in life. We went through boyfriends and drama and came out of high school close as ever.

We began college and drifted apart, but when it came time to meet up again, it was always like nothing had changed.

Carla is: silly, sarcastic, caring, sincere, beautiful, passionate, lovely and just plain hilarious. She makes me laugh all the time. I could list a million words and reasons why I love this girl. I am so incredibly lucky to have a friend like her in my life.

Carla, you will never know how much I appreciate your friendship.

I love you girl!

Our visit to The Magic Kingdom was so much fun! It's the first time either of us have ever been there [I've just been to Disneyland] We woke up at the butt crack of dawn to head from Sarasota to Orlando... we pretty much got there when the park opened, there wasn't a lot of people and the weather was really nice [thank goodness]!!

Yay!!! We're finally there!!

First picture inside the park! [Aren't we so cute ;)]

Thunder Mountain... one of the only rides we waited more than 20 minutes for...

Cinderella's castle was so beautiful!

Splash Mountain was a blast! Too bad they charge you 20 bucks for a illy little picture :(

Mickey's Hizouse!

One of the best parts of the day! We searched for lots of characters, Buzz was probably the most awesome!

O dear, the teacups!

Alex spun us so fast that I thought I was going to throw up.... every time I stopped looking at Alex I felt super ill haha.... we both got off the ride and could barely walk straight...

Thanks babe!

This castle is beautiful!!

Mickey ears ice cream! I was so excited!

Beautiful sunset!

The fireworks were really pretty!

It started raining about 5 minutes before the show was about to start... everyone started to get up and leave.... so we scooted all the way to the front!

The fireworks started... and the rain stopped.

I had such a great time with Alex.... spending the day together, feeling like a couple of kids! It was a blast!

Alex and I outside of a cute little restaurant right on the sand.

My honey bunny, relaxing in the sun!

Alex with his little brother, enjoying the beautiful weather.

Florida is surprisingly beautiful in May... compared to June/July.

Alex and Andy trying to put up the umbrella. Andy, Kim, me and Alex; Andy is/was Alex's best friend growing up... he just happened to be in Florida the same time as us.

All of us at the Daiquiri Deck, right of Siesta beach.

We were pretty darn close, a good 15 feet away... they were pretty calm and really didn't want to have anything to do with us. They were big, but not huge... we think about 7 feet long or so. It is pretty creepy to sit in a wobbly canoe only a few inches from the water.

I didn't want to do it at first, but it wasn't bad. I'd do it again :)
