The Dancer - A Photoshoot

Hi everyone!

Yesterday, I realized that it has been, again, a month or more since I have posted TAUT and before you all freak out- I want to say that I am really, really sorry! I just have not had the time to go to the park and take pictures! I want to get the next part up as soon as possible and I have not forgotten about it. So please just bear with me! LOL!

 

I took these pictures of Isabelle yesterday and thought she just looked so cute. She is in the same outfit as she was from my most recent photostory, but I thought it looked very "Isabelle" and dancer-y.;)

I love this picture!:)

I hope you liked the photos!

My shoot was turning out pretty boring, but when I tried some different angles, it got better! If your pictures are bland, I would recommend trying some new angles or locations.:D That's just a random tip for today.;P

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

Do you prefer reading or going out and doing?



Keeper Crazy - Part 1 - a mini photostory series

Hey everyone! I finished writing another TAUT story! Woot woot! I've started on another one and then I have only TWO more stories to write before I finish writing my series...Which totally freaks me out.:( But anyhoo, I finished rereading the Keeper of The Lost Cities series (or at least, the ones that have come out;D) and I decided I'd make a photostory around it. LOL! My dolls have been playing a lot of pranks on people lately, and, while it's not the best thing for them to do, it's still hilarious!;)

Check it out!!:)

 

"Hey, Isabelle! We thought that we would ask you if you want to play a game with us?" Elizabeth asked.

"Yeah sure," Isabelle murmured, not looking up from her book.

"Cool, I was thinking we could play base quest," Sophie suggested.

"What's that?" Elizabeth asked.

"Oh, it's a game I played at my old home. It's sort of like a mixture of capture the flag and tag."

"Oh, hey!" Sophie moved toward Isabelle, "is that the book all about me?"

"Yeah! You're my favorite character! You're so awesome!" Elizabeth grinned.

"Oh, uh, thanks," Sophie mumbled and she blushed at the sort of praise.

"So, um, do you want to play base quest or some other game like freeze tag?" Sophie asked Isabelle, trying to change the subject.

"Yeah, mhm," Isabelle murmured as she flipped a page

"Why isn't she answering us?" Sophie asked.

"Here let me try something," Elizabeth said and walked up to Isabelle, "Hey, Isabelle, Adam is going to play a crazy hobo mountain man in a movie made by a millionaire."

"That's nice," Isabelle muttered.

Elizabeth turned away and looked at Sophie, "I have an idea," Elizabeth smiled mischievously.

"Uh oh," Sophie frowned.

"No, trust me, this would be so funny! Let's make her think that she's been reading that book for ten  years!" Elizabeth grinned. Sophie sighed.

"You're reminding me of my friend, Keefe. He's always making trouble."

Elizabeth smiled again and Sophie gave a small smile.

"Okay, what do you need?"

Elizabeth grinned and told her what she needed. Sophie sighed again but she smiled.

"Okay."

So that's it for the first part.:) The next part should be up tomorrow! Have a good night/evening everybody!:D

Do you have a favorite book? If so, what is it?:)



A Camping Trip

Hey everyone! Nikki found out that Isabelle and Eden hadn't ever gone camping so she decided they'd do it. Sophie came along.:)

"Are we almost there yet?" Eden panted, not used to walking do far.

"We are! We can stay here for the night," Nikki decided.

"It's getting colder and windier, this will be an adventure!" Isabelle said excitedly, she always was on the hunt for an adventure. She usually spent her time in books and she longed for an adventure of her own.

"Well, it'll be fun!" Nikki replied.

"Can we set up?" Isabelle asked.

Nikki nodded and the girls started taking the blankets off of their backs.

Then, the blankets were spread and everybody copied up.

It was getting later in the day and the coldness grew. Eden soon got cold and wrapped herself in a blanket. Sophie and Eden were on one blanket and Nikki and Isabelle on another.

Nikki had packed an extra blanket and spread it over her legs.

Everybody began talking about random things, about Sophie's weird habit of picking out her eyelashes, about Nikki and how she had been dying to ski over the winter but hadn't gotten to, and how Eden had gotten mobbed by crazy fans.

Night fell too quickly and Nikki and Isabelle wriggled under the blanket.

Eden and Sophie also wrapped up, and they all talked through the night.

------------------------------------------------

Hope you enjoyed! I remember one time when I went camping, I woke up and all of these rabbits appeared out of these holes, it was really cool!:)

Have you ever gone camping? If so, do you have any fun memories?:)
