FFF and my questionably 18 story!

Now I know that you probably want to see the pictures and that's the biggest reason you decided to take a look at this post but first I want to share with you something I find exciting!

I finally got my "questionably 18" moment. Whats that you ask? Well let me explain.

Of course you know that when you turn 18 you are now considered a legal adult and you are granted adult privileges-buying cigarettes, playing the lottery, getting a tattoo and sitting at bars to name some. Well last month I turned 18 and was very excited to get these privileges like most people are when they first acquire them then I realized- I don't want to buy cigarettes or get a tattoo and there isn't really a reason for me to sit at a bar either. pshhh! What can I do!? Now I suppose I could just forget about it until the time comes for me to have my moment but I did not want to wait.

You see, I don't look 18 and I wanted to test my new abilities for fun to see what people would do. Basically I wanted to get carded looking like an eleven year old just to be like HA! Yes you see I am 18. So I decided to try and buy a lottery ticket. So I mosey on up to the machine looking around to see if anyone even cares that this "girl" is doing something that you have to be a certain age to do. ID in hand I take my time deciding on a ticket still looking around to see if anybody cares. Then I select the cheapest one, still waiting. Then I get the ticket, and slowing walk out the door, still waiting (yeah, I am pretty dumb!). And let me tell you what, nobody cared!!!! I was rather bummed and decided to give up on my questionably 18 moment.

But, I finally got it yesterday! ah ha! victory! So here it is....

For a mini-vacation thing my family and I went to Fort Rapids, an indoor water park (which was very awesome by the way!) Well they have a hot tub that's only for guests 18 and older. (Don't jump the gun although I bet you do know what happens next...) My dad decided he wanted to go sit in it and thinking this was my chance I followed along. I walked by the "guard" but he didn't say a think. ok, I thought to myself. Maybe he won't even care. So I put my feet in and not a minute later I get a tap on my shoulder and I hear something. I turn around and It's the guard (score!) Since I didn't hear what he said I said what and he asked how old I was (score!) and I of course replied "18." Hes like "oh, sorry. You look so young" (yes yes yes score!) And there it was. I got my "questionably 18" moment I had been waiting for. At last.

So now that I got to tell you my story here's the pictures!!! So I think that maybe FFF might be some kind of group thing not something I just pull outta my butt. And although I am getting that idea I am not sure what to do now. Any suggestions??? I still want to do FFF so I guess I will go on my own way and see where it goes from there.

So FFF theme for today will be my Favorites from a spring photo shoot I did with my sister about three years ago (when I didn't think to take off the date stamp, lol.) I really do love these photos and am excited to put them up here so here ya go!
^This one happens to be one of my all time favorites. I love it!^
^I just love this one. I cropped it and added the words^

So there you go. Hope you enjoyed and I will try and post the q-shot tomorrow! Comment?? =]


Much Love,
