Okay, so, last Tuesday...the day before my Lulu order was SUPPOSED TO arrive, it came. A day early. *hyperventilates* I mean, it wasn't really a surprise because I may or may not have been obsessively stalking the tracking thingymajing. *cough cough*
SO YES. After asking Mom every ten minutes when the mail would come, and why wasn't it there yet, and WHAT IF THEY TOOK IT TO THE WRONG HOUSE (OHMYGOODNESS), it came. I walked over to check the mail and it was tthhhheerrreeeee.
So...yeah. It's like 134 pages of BEAUTIFULNESS. *huggles it* *pets the gorg cover* #timeforaphotodump
(Wanna know another little something special? It arrived on my 16-and-a-half birthday. ^_^)
As soon as I got it out of the packaging, before even starting home :D
A little while later, the photoshoot began on the floor of my room...
Ignore my messy boxes over there in the distance XD
You get a sneak peek of chapter one -- feel special ;)
*covers eyes* It needs so much work.
Then later in the evening, I took my precious baby outside for more photo-love :)
And my OTHER precious baby was watching <3
Then I traipsed off down through the field and took a multitude of pictures in da purty grasses :D
*squeals* I'm so happy with the thickness, eeps!!! XD
I had on-lookers...at least they weren't blocking the sunlight. :P And my shadow looks cold...
Da skkkyyyyyyyy
And of course I kept getting sidetracked from the actual PURPOSE of the picture-taking... ;)
"We are her favorites. Hurt her and you die...by our teeth. We be vicious."
The cover is SO FAB Y'ALL. *flails*
Pssh. Yeah, the Kid was ignoring us. :P
This little brown-eyed darling flopped on to my lap... *pants* Goodness, he weighs a lot.
Back to the book XD
"Excuse me? I'm still here. Forget the book."
And when I finally got the doggies out of my lap, I took pictures with my flip-flops and the lovely book ^.^
That wraps it up! Hope y'all enjoyed, and that that wasn't toooo many pictures. :P Can ya tell I'm excited? Maybe? Just a little?! *grins*
Back to editing,
