I actually got an extended birthday this year, because my actual birthday landed on a Thursday!
I got even MORE pictures over the weekend-yay me!! Those will be coming…
I had all these plans of taking Maya down to the beach for pics, but then lost my oomph mid evening. SO…out in front of our house it was!
And, while they weren’t what I had envisioned creatively… They are US. I absolutely love them!!
I love these jeans! I recently scored them off eBay for $7.50!!! And this cute vintage bag is another recent Goodwill score for $6.50!
Maya when I came out wearing this…
“Um, mom…I think your shirt is on backwards…”
I do love tops with surprise backs!
I had been using this scarf tied around our focusing stand, but then had the brilliant idea of tying it to my bag-LOVE IT!!
Maya wanted to wear her hair down, and she looks SO grown up to me!
Looooooove all these next ones!!
Me…constantly smothering her. Her….kiiiiiinda putting up with it 🙂
Maya said I should wear these “Birthday Babe” sunglasses that she found at a thriftstore. The only problem is that I forgot that the camera is looking at you backwards from what you are doing. We were attempting to show that I turned 45 but it came out 54?!?
😳😂😭
Maya “Well, at least people will say ‘WOW! You look REALLY GOOD!’” 🤣🤣
I flipped the image to correct it, but now the “birthday babe” is backwards…
I can resist matching shoes!!
Maya saw her picture on the back of the camera, and said “From far away, I look like you!”
Nailed that pose!

On me…
Purse- Vintage (thrifted)
Scarf- Vintage (thrifted)
On Maya…
Sweater- Zef (eBay)
Keeping it Real…
Here’s the 54 🙂

And….my scarf tied as the focusing point.

Good grief. I don’t even remember what I was laughing about!

And, what the HECK??!!!
(all pictures taken with a shutter release and tripod, except ones of Maya :))
