These two people are the people I would consider my sisters. I've known them since I was five and I looked up to them both.  Mary (The girl in the pink) was my best friend.  We did everything together. Sarah, (The one in the stripes) was the girl who would braid our hair and explain to us we would always be beautiful princesses.  I love them both as if they were pieces of my heart.  I'll always look up to my older sisters.
These pictures were taken the month Sarah had gotten diagnosed with a rare type of Leukemia. Mary called me up crying, and I cried too.  I told my family and we all prayed that she would get better.  It was heartbreaking, to find out that the person I've always looked up to was at risk.

Sarah will always be in our hearts. January 30th, 2015 she passed away.  It's now August 18th, 2015 and I'm still struggling.  Mary is now living on her own, finding her own ways to cope with it. We're all struggling and we'll miss her until we can't remember anything at all and we've turned into dust.

Rest in peace, Sarah Weilgos. I love you.

 My brother is a wrecking ball. He's either hyper or he's being horrible. There's barely any inbetween, However, one day I found him on the couch, completely sucked into my mom's phone.  I took this moment, captured it, and decided to publish it.  This is definitely the calmest I've ever seen him besides when he's sleeping.

 This is my cat, Huey. He looks like a typical grumpy, fat cat. But when you pet him and he warms up to you, all he wants is love and to be pet.  He'll cuddle with you and watch over you throughout the night and he's definitely one of the sweetest cats I've ever met.

 I'm very fond of these pictures of my front yard. These flowers always look like bellarinas to me, with their orange shirts and beautiful, big, pink skirt.





I love dying and decaying livihng things.  Now that fall is coming, I decided to use this opportunity to capture some of the wild life that was beginning to fall apart.  There was also a dead bird on the porch but then decided that would be a little too gross for some people.
