RIP High Heels

On Thursday night two of my best friends from high school (Whitney & Erika, also two of my bridesmaids) came to Joplin. We had been planning to take our engagement pictures here in Joplin for quite sometime, but every weekend we set aside for it the weather would freak out and make Whitney unable to drive up to take them for us! So we finally had the opportunity to do so yesterday. We really wanted to take them in Joplin because we could take them at Camp Cyokamo where we met almost 7 years ago.

Well first of all, it was so awesome to finally spend time with my friends again and have them visiting me in Joplin was also fun. We got to hang out with Kara and they came to class with me which was fun. So finally we got to drive out to the place where we met and finally take our pictures. We had a blast =) Cyokamo holds so many memories for us as individuals and together. We even took a couple in the exact place that we met (the old sand volleyball court... the corner still has a big hole from where we dug sand). We took some all around camp and then headed back in to town. We also got to take some pictures on a street in Joplin that is called "Abigail Lane" which we thought was pretty fun. And we ended out the day by taking some pictures randomly downtown, including a small park where my mom and dad took their engagement pictures. We then ate dinner at our favorite local restaurant (Hackett's Hot Wings!) And then Whitney and Erika had to leave... very sad, but I am so glad we got to hang out. Cyokamo holds great memories for me and my friends too... so there was some fun reminiscing.

The unfortunate thing is that my black high heels officially died. I have had them since I was a senior in high school. This pair of heels were my first really cute pair of shoes... they are the result of me branching out in my fashion. I knew the end of their life was coming... they have been falling apart for awhile now. But I think yesterday was their last run. So RIP to my first pair of pointy-toed black high heels. I will miss you. You guided my fashion to a new level and opened new doors to me.

I think that's all for now. I hope you all are enjoying the beautiful sun shiny day!
