It's Five Question Friday!

-Thought I had the stomach bug this week, but have decided it was actually food poisoning- either way, so not fun!

-I keep changing my background because I am looking for something that will look good with pictures. Everything I like is just too busy.

-Totally pumped for Project Runway to be starting! The new season is looking different-they are mixing it up!

-My sister flies in tomorrow with her hubby and I can't wait to see them!

-I would really appreciate prayer for a very close friend. She is facing some really scary unknowns right now.

And NOW on to 5 Question Friday!! Mama M is the running this gig, so head to her blog to join in!

1. Did you have a favorite blanket or toy as a kid? If so, do you still have it?

My grandmother made all three of us kids blankets. I was the only one who was not allowed to have mine because my g'ma made me a real quilt. To this day I have no idea where it is or what it looks like. SO I stole my brother's and sister's and held on to them ALL the time!! No, I do not still have theirs'.

2. Do you dream in color?

Some people DON'T dream in color? I don't believe it!

3. How tall are you? Do you wish you were shorter or taller?

Just under 5'9. It's one of a few things I would not change.

4. If you could have anyone's (celeb or other) voice as the guide on your GPS, who would it be?


I have a GPS??

Christian Kane

Or Taye Diggs

5. Do you return your shopping cart to the corral or leave it wherever in the parking lot?

I get so upset with people who are TOO LAZY to put the cart where it goes...usually taking up another parking spot or getting blown by the wind into another car. No excuse people, no excuse!!

Let's Celebrate Eternal Life

Imagine what it will be like when thousands of generations will join together as one voice in heaven, like this, singing before the Lord?

Vanity, Vanity

I wish I had a house of my own so I could decorate it. If I did, I'd probably get a beautiful bedroom vanity like this one:
It's a little ridiculous how I get ready every day sitting on the floor with my stuff all over the place. This vanity would be perfect!

I won't quite be making a purchase this large right now, but CSN Stores is allowing me to do a review of one of their products! I have already picked out what I want to review, and I can't wait to share it with you! I may even throw something in there myself for someone who leaves a comment on the review post! Hold on to your seats, I'm going to be cooking up (hint hint) something good!

Haven't seen these parts in a while

I haven't been here in a long while...aside from some a couple posts here and there.

I am on a break from school right now. I handed everything in a couple days ago, but today was my first official day off from the daily mental grind.

I wish I had written down all my blog posts ideas I've had over the last couple weeks, but I didn't.

I am looking forward to learning more about photography on my break and getting my resume all ready (not that I am looking forward to that part....)

Summer has been fun so far! I flew out to Ohio for two days to help my sister drive out here for two weeks.

We took some family pictures while she was here

I also shot up to Maine for a quick weekend. I ended up having to do school work up there, but it was still great!
In Maine, I finally got to see my college roomie who I had not seen since being in her wedding over a year ago!
Been spending lots of time with this girl while doing school work. She won't let me out of her sight!
Had a pedicure done by a guy who JUST returned from Iraq....???
and have seen some BEAUTIFUL sunsets!

Do share what YOU have been doing!

Raw(e) Flower Style

I LOVE this week's theme! I could post 52 pictures (see this post), but this one is still one of my FAVS! I took it YEARS ago and about three cameras ago!
