30 day photo challenge: Day 30

Day 30 - A picture of someone you miss

I obviously miss my uncle. and I've talked about that a lot recently, so I'll go with Dustin.

I haven't seen him in a while (he's in SD right now with family), and its very easy to miss someone you love very much.

My personal sweatshop: Skirt

My first real project!

My parents got me a sewing machine for Christmas (extra exciting since I didn't even ask for it) and Nicki got me a cute little sewing box with some fabulous treats inside. I was officially ready for sewing!

I chose this precious little skirt pattern from Simplicity.
my beautiful machine
Patterns are much more confusing than I thought
finished project. :)
I know it isn't perfect, but I am so proud of it for my first real project and Im excited for more. :)

craftin' it up .

Day 27 - A picture of yourself and a family member

My brother is growing up so fast. :)

day twenty seven.


30 day photo challenge: Day 26

Day 26 - A picture of something that means a lot to you
Hmm... something that means a lot to me...

Im not one to have material possessions that mean a lot to me- my family and friends mean the world to me.

But I get the idea that this question should have a material answer. So Im going to go with some jewlery I have received recently. My diamond earrings I got on my 21st birthday from my parents, and a beautiful set of pearls that I received from the Johnsons this past Christmas.
Thank you guys for the fabulous jewelry. I love the classic look. :)

day twenty six.

30 day photo challenge: Day 25

Day 25 - A picture of your day

Today I made breakfast for Dustin, Kayla, and my family.

It was delicious! Eggs, bacon, pancakes with my sweet apple cinnamon reduction. (tutorial to come)

And it's even better when served on leftover Christmas party paper plates.

30 day photo challenge: Day 24

Day 24 - A picture of something you wish you could change

There isn't anything I would like to change... if we were talking about the past or something. Because as I have said, you learn from everything. But I think this is ironic this is falling on new years day, because I'm going to apply it to a new years resolution.

Here they are:
1. Learn to really play the piano.
2. Tone my body into a cruise ready figure.
3. Get into Pepperdine.

day twenty four.
