She's Country

Hey Preps!

How was everyone's Easter?  Mine was filled with lots of family, friends, and food.  I love Easter because often in holidays like Christmas with all the gift buying and events, we lose sight of the true meaning.  Easter always is such a great reminder of how much God loves us.  It makes me want to show the same self-giving love to everyone around me...and to constantly strive to be one step closer to the woman God has created me to be.

Saturday one of my best friends from high school and I got together.  She just got an amazing SLR camera with a zoom attachment.  Given that I do a little bit of modeling here and there, she wanted to test-run it on me.

We went through country roads, taking pictures, catching up...and having way too much fun considering.  It was one of those days you just wish you could replay over and over again.  We ended up at my great grandma's farm.  She passed away when I was in high school at the age of 96.  To the day she died she took care of the farm.  We couldn't even try asking her to help with things because it was always denied.  She knew how to live.  From knowing everyone, to loving everyone...to her independence... to her love of God...I hope one day I am half the woman she was.

It was a great day.  Here are the pictures from it:

Cheesin' 

Deserted barn...just decided to stop here

I'm allergic to dandelions.  Bad idea.

I am the happiest girl.

I love how he closed his eyes in this shot.  So gentle.

Childhood dream:  Wanted a horse.

Was part of the Rolling Rock hunt when I was young

Every Christmas would ask for a horse. 

There was a car coming...I live on the edge, what can I say
