Photoshoots!!!

I recently decided that my little brother, Cody, was just too dang cute to not have any pictures of him. So, being the cool big sister that I am, I dressed him up and went looking.

The process was a little difficult. I knew the destination, but getting him there was the hard part. First, we had to drag him into the bathroom, where we gelled his hair into perfection. That kid can pull off the euro hawk like no other, I swear. Then we had to go through his clothes and convince him that changing in the back of my car was not illegal, or was anyone going to come peek at him! Finally we all piled in the car and were off.

I must admit, I was the lucky one. I was wearing my jacket the whole time, and all I had to do was take pictures. Here's how they turned out:

Here he is trying to act like a "bad-boy", but anyone who knows him knows it's absolutely impossible. He's got a smile on his face all the time!






This one was our first pic, testing out the light. As you can see, it was fairly dark outside. But isn't he just so dang cute? I seriously love him to death.

He could be a Calvin Klein model, I swear. I'm actually very impressed. It was probably 40 degrees out side and he was completely willing to take his jacket off, sit in the middle of bushes filled with water and who knows what else, just so I could take pictures of him. But wouldn't you, if he was your brother? He's just so dang cute!!!

For his birthday I took him to Lagoon and we were standing in line for one of their newer rides, Wicked. This rollercoaster flies up freakishly high and sends you plummeting down at speeds that should be illegal. For those who know me, they know that I'm absolutely terrified of heights, so this coaster was a scary prospect. However, for Cody, I was willing to go through it. We were standing there, waiting for the line to go through and we're just about to jump on when Cody looks up at me and says "Sharise, if you're too scared, it's ok. We don't have to go on it. We can go on the spinny rides again if you want to." You could totally tell that he hated saying it, and that he really wanted to go on it, but he was willing to miss out just for me. Of course after that I had to go with him. I loved it, but nothing was better than spending the whole day with him.

That's all I guess. I'll really try to post more often. Everyone is getting bigger and cuter, so I'll try and put on as many pics as I can.
