Day 28 Something You're Afraid Of

Losing my home to a fire or a natural disaster.

Day 27 You and a Family Member

This is me and my great granny, this was the last picture taken of her.

Day 26 (Something That Means A Lot To You)

My little Scooter.

Day 25 (A Picture Of Your Day)

Typical day.

Day 24 (Something You Wish You Could Change)

Enough said.

Day 23 (Your Favorite Book)

Aside from the Bible, which I have in audio as well, the Harry Potter series. I have each book in paperback, hardback, audio, and some in foreign editions.

Day 22 (Something You Wish You Were Better At)

I feel like I'm good at photography, but I wish I was better. Everyone can always improve.

Day 21 (Something you wish you could forget)

I wish I could forget that Ke$ha's music exists. Not to be mean, but really. I couldn't think of anything else.

Day 20 (Somewhere You'd Love To Travel)

I'd love to travel all over my home country, then I'll check out other countries.

Day 19 (A picture and a letter)

Not sure if I interpreted this right or not. However these are letters that my late Granny Judith had written me as well as cards given to me underneath. I still cry when I read these, she and my mother were the most important people to my childhood. She loved me so much and always let me know. Unfortunately she died when I was 11 after a long battle with lung cancer. I have dreams of her getting to meet Kyle, getting to meet my future kids, getting to meet my sisters. After all these years it's still sometimes hard to believe she isn't here. She wasn't just a grandparent to me, she was so much more.

Day 18 (Your biggest insecurity)

Being overweight. I'm feeling much better about myself now that I'm going to the gym. But for YEARS I've hated myself.

Day 17 (Something that has made an impact on your life recently)

There have been several negative things to happen as of late, but I'm going to share a positive change that is about to impact my life greatly. My husband's impending graduation from college. Our lives will finally get to begin. We'll be moving, starting a family, finally getting to see all our plans and dreams come to fruition.

Day 16 (Someone who inspires you)

My faith in Christ inspires me to go on with life. I have my days when I question why God would allow things to happen, but that's human nature. And then there are those moments of pure happiness when I witness things that confirm my faith.

Day 15

Day 15-Something You Want To Do Before You Die

I want to be a mom more than anything I've ever wanted. I don't care if I am pregnant or we adopt. I just want a son or daughter. Or two or three.

Targus Monopod

I have a wonderful Tripod given to me by my mother in law and stepfather in law. But I was wanting something more compact and quicker to use. I started hunting around for a monopod on Amazon, just by chance found the Targus Monopod at Wal-Mart. It was only $15 so I figured I'd give it a try. It folds down to 21 inches, and fully extends to 67 inches. Holds my camera secure and helps take a great picture. It even has a wrist strap and a comfortable grip handle. It just screws right into your camera, which I love because it only takes seconds to attach to my slr. I also love that it has a rubber foot that can turn into a spike, that's something I love about my tripod as well. All in all this is a great deal for any photographer to have. If you lose it or damage it, it's cheap to replace.

 

Day 14

Day 14-Someone You Can't Imagine Living Your Life Without

My husband. This is my favorite picture of him. Such a cutie!

Day 13

Day 13-Your Favorite Band/Artist

Couldn't pick just one, so I put some of my favorites together.

Day 12

Day 12-Something I Love

I love, love, love Harry Potter. I have all the paperback, hardback, and audio versions (American), not to mention 3 (books 1, 3, & 4) foreign editions. I dork out and collect memorabilia and Lego sets as well. Yeah, I'm such a major dork.

Day 11

Day 11-Something I Hate

I have a huge fear and great disliking of spiders. So much in fact that I couldn't get myself to Google a picture of a real spider, I had to look for a cartoon spider. Oh yeah, and in Charlotte's Web, I was happy when the dang spider died.

Day 10

Day 10-The Person You Do The Most Messed Up Things With

I really can't pick just one person for this. I've done a lot of crazy fun stuff, with a lot of crazy cool people. And a lot of that fun involved my first car. Going to concerts, having fake fights with one of my besties, cruising around, hitting garage walls, trips from Versailles to Richmond. So I just chose a picture of me in my old Taurus.

Day 9

Day 9-The Person Who Has Gotten You Through The Most

My mom has been there for me my whole life. She is the first person I call with good news or with bad news. She is my best friend, I can tell her anything and she is always understanding.

Day 8

Day 8-A Picture That Makes You Laugh

Day 7

Day 7-Your Most Treasured Item

Since I don't consider people or animals items, my laptop wins this one. If there were a fire and everyone was out safe, I would save this. My laptop has all my music and pictures. With internet access I can access the Bible, socialize with my friends, or mindlessly surf the internet. And it's a tablet...which is epic and awesome.

Day 6

Day 6-A Person You'd Love to Change Places With For a Day

Not sure if he counts, but really it'd be awesome. Yes, I'm a dork.

Day 5

Day 5-Your Favorite Memory

 

My favorite memory to date is my wedding day. The wedding party consisted of our best friends, my little cousin as ring bearer, and my little sisters and niece as flower girls.

Let me dork out for a moment.....

I love, love, LOVE Netflix. Always thought of trying it, but figured it wasn't worth the money. Signed up for it tonight after checking out a friend's account on the PS3. I love this! You can access it via mail, computer, iPhone, PS3, Xbox, or Wii. There are so many watching options, and they have just about everything. This has me debating on canceling cable and just getting an HD antenna so that I can get the local channels. I've had an account for under an hour and my instant queue is a mile long.

Ok dork rant over.

Day 4

Day 4-Picture of your night.

 

This is the only way I can sleep. Blanket around my neck or over my head, and music going on my iPod.

Day 3

Day 3-Picture of your favorite tv show cast. 

My current favorite show is Big Love on HBO. The final season is currently being aired.

Day 2

Day 2-A Picture of you and the person you've been the closest with the longest.

Aside from my family, I've known my friend Brittany the longest. We remained friends through elementary, middle, high school, and into adulthood. She was one of my maids of honor at my wedding. We've had our ups and downs, but always come back to one another. This picture was taken the summer before 7th grade.

30 Day Picture Challenge-Day 1

Day 1-A picture of yourself with 10 facts.

1. I never understood what a relationship with God meant until I was saved. Now I could never imagine my life without Him in it.

2. Not only do I love my husband, but I love his family as well.

3. I want five kids. I don't think my husband wants quiet as many.

4. I don't think I want to go to college, but my husband and mother want me to.

5. I hate when people want torturous deaths for murderers and sexual predators. They do horrible things, but no one deserves to be tortured to death.

7. In a perfect world I would have a house in my hometown and my husband's hometown.

8. I dream of running my own animal shelter.

.....

It's been in the news for a few days, a mother in Tampa killed her two children for "mouthing off". Her son was 13 and shot him not once but twice in the head while taking him to soccer practice. Then went home and shot her 16 year old daughter while the girl was studying. The father is serving our country over seas, the mother had been previously investigated for smacking her daughter. If you are a praying person, send your thoughts and prayers to this man and his family.
