At once I knew I was not magnificent

Here are some photos I took today at the train tracks by my house. I took them all myself with my tripod and remote. It was super fun except that I was roasting. I also found my moms old bike in the garage today which is totally vintage and awesome and I will be riding it everywhere now. PS Please view these on flickr they are so much better quality

I remember you like yesterday,

I still can't believe you're gone.

Yesterday-Switchfoot

ghosting

I love this song and music video by The Civil Wars

also it is sooooo hot, this is me barely surviving, also please note the wonderful new bookshelf my grandpa made for me. :)

Family

Brother, father, mother

are such nice words

they slide of my tongue

slippery, smooth and sweet

Great wide strides of growing up

press childhood into the shadows

now we stand eye to eye

your eyes the same as my eyes

I see reflections of rough and tumble, laughter,

lightening bugs, woods and walks

we smile, thankful at the wholeness of us

rest

I looked out the window

and saw everything beautiful

everything,

except for you

A little bit

this song is beautiful, and so is this poem

In the blue

I made this video with Brooke when she came to visit for two days.

I hope you enjoy.
