This 100+ year old wheel actually made its way to Montana on a covered wagon. I placed it under my favorite old willow tree.... Well we had a love-hate relationship....
Matt my LITTLE brother, who made all the frames for these photos, ALWAYS got me in trouble with the parents. Sometimes we got into trouble together, but usually it was me who took the fall. So imagine dragging your little boots down to the willow tree... looking up at all the slim quivering branches... thinking about which one would hurt the least when it lashed into your misbehaving bum.... Yeah. They made us go and PICK the branch! But I guess we learned... or not...
My favorite part of this image is the dress, which is lovingly hand painted by Ashton. Can you see the little running horses? And yes it was cold, about 5 below with the wind chill (it's the first thing everyone asks). Sorry Laurel. XO.
