A Number of Things

*   *   *   Bethany’s Blog Party   *   *   * 

 1. What is your favorite color? Well, they change from time to time.  But at the moment, I belive they are brown, red, and coral.  The thing is, I like all the colors….if the world was only brown, red, and coral it wouldn’t be nearly so nice.
2. Do you floss? Yep, mostly
3. Coffee or hot chocolate? Hot chocolate.  I don’t care much for coffee.
4. Fudge or caramel? Oh, definitely fudge. 
5. Grape juice or apple juice? This is much tougher to answer than the last two…I guess I’ll say apple juice.
6. Would you rather swim in- a swimming pool, a lake, the ocean, a pond, or a swamp? Other than a swamp, I think I”ll be adventuous and say any of those sound fine.  But admittedly, a swimming pool is the nicest in my mind.
7. If you could be ANYTHING, what would you be?  I rather like being myself, come to think of it.  Beyond that, I’d answer either a good writer or musician.  It’s hard to choose between the two. 
8. If you owned a really big hotel that had 20 floors, would you put the 13th level in? It seems like it would be awefully hard to reach floor number 20 if you don’t have number 13.  So, if I’m aiming for 20 floors, I would be compelled to have floor 13.
9. Would you rather be- a dragon, a bird, or an airplane.   A bird.
10. If you could have four different kinds of ANY super power, what would they be.  Oh dear, I’ve never thought about this before…and I can’t think of any answers to this…I’m sorry!

*   *   *   Unedited Photo Challenge: Week 4   *   *   *

I’m long overdue on posting thise photo; nonetheless, here’s my last photo for the unedited photo challenge.  (Week 1, Week 2 and Week 3)

*   *   *   The Skirt   *   *   *

A while back I made a skirt and I’m finally getting around to posting a picture of it as was requested.  The pattern I used was Simplicity 2609 view D.  I must say this was one of the easiet skirt patterns I’ve ever made and I’m happy with the way it turned out :)

 *   *   *   Drawing   *   *  * 

Lastly, one of my friends wanted to see some of the drawings that I have done.  Well, I haven’t drawn hardly anything recently, but here’s a picture of the last drawing that I did.  My sweet little Faith-a-Darlin’!

And with that I think I’ve gotten caught up on most everything that I’ve been meaning to post about.   Sometime in the future I’ll try to post some of the graduation photos for you, Becky!  

Oh, Look!

It’s my little Faith-a-Darlin’

 

Can anyone say “a.d.o.r.a.b.l.e.”?!

i like springtime.  very. much.

how about you?

Just Popping In…

…to say hello (and post a couple unedited photos).  Therefore,

Hello, Everyone! 

How are you all?  Having a good spring so far?  It was wonderful to read each of the comments left on my last post (thank you much!) and I appreciate that you all are such wonderful commenters ;)  Personally I’ve been enjoying my blog break quite a bit.  I made a list of everything I wanted to get done before I return to blogging and it’s great to be making some (albeit slow) progress on it.  Upon seeing the list, my sister promptly informed me that it was too much to do before blogging.  It may be…but perhaps not, we’ll see.  Anyway, I did want to get these unedited photos posted, so I thought I’d write real quick and then disappear back to this blogging break. 

:: Unedited Photos :: 

I’m finding this challenge much harder than I expected.  It used to be I never edited photos–due to the fact I didn’t know it could be done–but since discovering this wonderful thing, I edit photos quite a bit.  The challenge has been good, though, in that it’s made me actually get out my camera quite a bit throughout the week, and I have enjoyed the challenge this challenge presented.  Though I’m not entirely pleased with how they turned out, here are the unedited photos for weeks 2 and 3.  Enjoy :)

{spring is here!}

Oh, and well, spring’s kind of here.  Some friendly white flakes otherwise known as snow, cold winds, and 35 degree weather decided to make their appearance today, too.  We’re endeavoring to be hospitable.

{p.s. I’ll post my unedited photo for last week, hopefully, sometime soon}

{Unedited Photography: Week 1}

My friend Rebekah is having a small photography challenge, and I decided to particiapte!  The point is to focus on taking a photo a week that doesn’t need any editing.    The following picture is my unedited photo for last week {Week 1 of 4}.
