That Surprise I Was Tellin' You About...

Yesterday, I posted that I was going to be working on a little surprise for my readers.  Well...that surprise is now completed. ;) heehee  I am very excited to present this...

Miss Lucia (at From Under My Little Umbrella) and I have known each other (yes, in real life!) for a few years.  We met at a homeschool co-op that we both used to go to, and we don't live super far from each other.  So...on Tuesday, we got together and did a photo shoot. ;)  JUST FOR YOU!!


We'd been trying to get together for a little while, and after much planning, we had our day set!!  And of course, we took our camera along ;)

When I first got to their house, we were chattin' for a little while.
I had Lucia post that she had a surprise coming up for her readers soon... ;) 
Then we set off to do a lil' mini-photoshoot...
They knew of this really pretty old barn, so we took a walk up to it and shot some photos...



I like how this pic turned out...
Nice job, Lu!



Lucia!! ::smiles::

One of Lu's favorites :)

 It was a super hot day!  But not humid, because there was this gentle breeze from heaven...♥ :)
So we decided to hit the docks!!  Woohoo!



This is Lucia's older sister, Olivia...
ALL the photos of us together were kindly taken by her :)
(I took this ^ one of her :)

I took this one...

Lu took this one...

The river is really flooded right now and there was this place that it was practically a forest in the water!!  It was rad!!
So I climbed this one tree ^ and Lu took that pic :)  Preeeetty cool!

 Canoeing together!  Yay!
(Liv climbed a tree and took this pic ;)

 Beautiful view of Mount St. Helens...

 On an 'abandoned dock'...at least, that's what I called it :)

'Cuz we're cool like dat!!

When we had been canoeing for about an hour, we decided to head back to the house...
and what do you think we did next? ;)


Ladies always have picnics ;)
