Extras, Extras - A Mini Photoshoot

Hi everyone!
I don't know if I am the only one, but sometimes when I am taking pictures for a specific post, I find myself taking extra pictures, which is what happened last week with the Hide-and-Go-Seek Outdoors photostory. Here are the extra pictures that I took-

I loved how Saige's hair caught the light in these pictures!:)

I hope you liked the pictures, do you ever have times where your camera is not listening to you?XD

Hide-and-Go-Seek Outside - A Photostory

Hi everyone!
I'm really sorry that my posts have been sporadic, but I'm hoping to get better!

Anyway, here's the photostory I mentioned before!:)

Cecile and Saige sat in the living room, bored out of their minds. Everyone in the family was doing something different, and they were alone with nothing to do.

"What do you want to do?" Cecile asked Saige again.

"I have no idea," Saige replied, frowning. "We could go outside, I always get good ideas there." 

They agreed and walked outside and onto the lawn, sitting down and thinking. Cecile dug her fingers into the grass and thought on their predicament. 

"Hey! We could play hide-and-go-seek! I remember playing that at summer camp last year and it was so fun!" Cecile offered. 

"That sounds good!" Saige agreed. They decided on a place where the seeker, in this game, Saige, would count to thirty, and once Saige started counting- 

-Cecile sprung away, scanning the yard for a good hiding spot. 

"Twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty! Ready or not, here I come!" Saige hollered and opened her eyes. 

She scrambled up the wall and looked behind a big jug, but, alas, Cecile wasn't there. 

Saige jumped onto the jug to survey the yard. Where would Cecile hide? 

"What?" Saige whispered as something ducking caught her attention. She whipped her head to the left and spotted the top of Cecile's black curls.

"I see you!" She yelled, laughing when Cecile moaned playfully. 

This time, Cecile would play the part of the seeker. Saige snickered as she split away; she had the perfect spot to hide! 

Eagerly, Cecile counted to thirty, then spun around, her eyes darting wildly around the yard for Saige's bright red hair.  

Saige wasn't hidden in an open spot, so she snuck away, stealthily tip-toeing to the thick, overgrown bushes that would make an awesome hiding spot.  

"AHA!" Cecile shouted when she ripped away a clump of the bush. She sighed as she slumped to the yard again. 

Where was that mischievous girl? Cecile thought, an eyebrow raised. She thought about how Saige was determined to become a spy. Of course, she would have a great hiding spot. Cecile just had to find it... 

She jumped into the planter and looked around the tree, but Saige was not there.

"Bleah!" Cecile cried. Then she heard it.

A stifled giggle.

Coming from.... 

Cecile looked up, shielding her eyes from the sun with her hand. Saige stood nestled in the branches, chortling to herself. 

"Oh, Saige! If you want to be a spy, you're going to need to learn how to stay quiet," Cecile laughed and climbed the tree.

"It is my one weakness!" Saige shouted dramatically, shaking her fist.

"Don't be so dramatic!" Cecile giggled along with Saige. "It's your turn to seek, come on." 

"Oh, um," Saige started, looking embarrassed as she gazed downward. "I'm- uh, stuck..." 

"The stealthy spy becomes stuck between tree branches," Cecile narrated through bursts of laughter. Saige turned bright red but laughed, too. Cecile composed herself.

"I'll go get mom."

Birdwatching - A Photostory

Hi everyone!

Yesterday, I took these pictures for this photostory. I hope you enjoy!:D

"Thank you everyone for joining me on my pursuit for adventure!" Isabelle began.

It was a chilly morning and as soon as Isabelle's feet had hit the ground, she knew she wanted to go out and do something exciting.

"Birdwatching is your idea of adventure?" Elizabeth asked with her usual haughty tone.

"You never know what can spark an adventure. Have you ever read a book? Their adventures can start with pretty crazy things."

"That's fine, but why did you make us wear these historical outfits?" Cecile asked, gesturing to the pink fluffy dress she was wearing. 

"I thought that it would help it seem more fun!" Isabelle exclaimed and smiled. "Okay, let's go birdwatching!" 

Silently, the three girls looked around at the trees, searching for a bird.

"Are there birds even here anymore? Don't they fly south for the winter?" Cecile asked.

"There are still birds but keep your voice down. You could scare them away," Isabelle replied and gazed into a tree. 

"Has anyone else noticed all of these huge spider webs?" Elizabeth asked, her eyes wide and darting. 

"Liz, I said quiet!" Isabelle snapped, her voice lowered.

The trio continued waiting for any birds to show up and, after an hour, Cecile began to fidget. She was used to real adventures or active activities, but all of this waiting for nothing was making her restless. And Isabelle's soft murmurs of- 'Is that a bird?' 'I think I see something!' and 'Maybe that's a bird?' didn't help.

But she continued to look, hopeful that if they found a bird, they could go play a game. 

"Ooh, maybe that's a bird!" Isabelle whispered. Again. She raised her binoculars to check a tree branch, when Cecile cut in. 

"Come on, Izzy. There aren't any birds out today. How about we go play tag or hide-and-go-seek. That's still fun and outdoorsy!" Cecile said and lowered Isabelle's binoculars. 

"Wait! Is that a bird?" Isabelle pointed into the bush and Cecile sighed as she glimpsed a scaly tail fly across the dirt. 

"IT'S NOT A BIRD! IT'S A LIZARD!" Elizabeth shouted. 

"I SAID SHUSH!" Isabelle barked, then lowered her voice as she realized she had broken her own rule. "Come on guys, what books have you read where they go play tag and an adventure occurs?"

"Can we please just do something interesting," Elizabeth murmured and turned away from Isabelle.

"Just a few more minutes, Cece, Elizabeth, please," Isabelle bit her lip as Cecile sighed again. A slight buzzing hissed through the air and Isabelle swatted a fly away.

"I guess we could watch for a few more minutes, then we can play-" Cecile's compromise was cut short by Elizabeth's flailing and screaming as she batted away the fly and kept shouting- "BEE!!! BEE!!!" 

Elizabeth jumped off the ledge and darted across the lawn, hands waving as she kept going on her rampage. 

Cecile grinned and tapped Isabelle's shoulder. "Okay, never mind! Tag you're it!" Cecile raced away until Isabelle couldn't see her. 

"But guys! The birds..." Isabelle muttered something underneath her breath as she glowered at her sisters. 

"I think I have had enough 'adventure time' for the rest of the year. I'm going inside."

I hope you enjoyed the post!:D
