yes we did but there was a little bit of wind and we did it in the open. AND plus, that stupid orange peel is like a ghost.....it's not even there on my lip now. damn dust.

only got 1 pic uploaded and having trouble with the others.....will have the others hopefully tonight. i'll keep you guys updated. THANKS FOR THE COMMENTS GUYS!
