Were you part of the Hunger Games mania this weekend?  I read the books last year, but I’m nervous to see the movie.  I hate when movies ruin the wonderful experience of the book.  And it’s happened more than once.  So, I’m on the fence.  Those that have read the books and seen the movie…was it worth it?  Do you feel angsty about having seen it?  Did it do the characters justice?  Do you feel like maybe I shouldn’t be obsessing about a young adult book/movie when I am WELL into my 30’s?

Speaking of young adults…middle school.  I photographed a local middle school’s graduating 8th graders and don’t ever remember looking this cute.  Not in middle school, and maybe not ever!

Here’s a few other sessions I had this last week.  On sunnier days.  I told Brent today I was so tired of the gloomy weather and he asked me if I meant I was tired of the last 10 hours of gloomy weather.  Because yesterday was beautiful.  I just forgot.  And the week before.  Oh, Long Beach.  You spoil me.
