Ten Day Challenge: One Picture

 We're finally at the end! Ten weeks and it's all over. This is my final post in this challenge. One picture. It wasn't hard to come up with this one. It was between this one and a picture of my favorite Cape Cod beach, but of course the picture of myself won out.

This is me, by the way. When I was much smaller. We still have that laundry basket, but I don't fit in it anymore.

I've been brainstorming something to take the place of these posts on Fridays, and hope to have something new in place by next week. I've also been making a list of all the new things I want to do with this blog, so look forward to some changes 'round here in the next few months. As always, thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet! Love you all!

photo diary: topsfield fair 2011

I went to our local county fair last weekend with the bestie. These are some pictures from the fair - including before and afters of our German fries, duck racing, the prerequisite "lost children" picture and various animals and vegetables. It was unseasonably warm the day we went, which was both a blessing (80 degrees in September? I'll take it) and a curse (everyone was at the fair). We also got kettle corn and a candy apple to take home with us. We almost tried a fried Oreo, but decided it was best for our health if we just stayed away from fried cookies.

Do you guys have any fairs in your area? Have you eaten a fried Oreo and lived to tell the tale?

30 Day Photo Challenge - Day 1

Day 1 - A picture of your birthplace

This is my mom.

I was born in Malden, Massachusetts and I wasn't about to drive there to get a picture of the hospital. Hello, traffic. I could have been all lame and taken a picture of a tree or something and said "I felt truly born and alive when I saw this tree" but that would be a lie.

So I went super, super literal. And right to the source. 

Also, isn't my mom so sassy?

30 Day Photo Challenge

I just started doing this photo challenge on Facebook just for fun, and thought I would share the challenge on here as well. Each day there is a new category you have to post a picture for. Here is the list of what each day's photo should be about:

Day 1 - A photo of your birthplace.
Day 2 - If I wasn't me, who or what would I be?
Day 3 - Where I go to escape the world.
Day 4 - Look into my eyes, you'll see . . .
Day 5 - On my day off, my favourite thing to do.
Day 6 - The first thing I'd buy if I won lotto.
Day 7 - One person in history I'd like to spend a day with.
Day 8 - Look into my heart, you'll see . . .
Day 9 - My favourite food.
Day 10 - If I could go back into my past, what event would I revisit?
Day 11 - My best friend, and why I love them.
Day 12 - My first Pet
Day 13 - My Favourite Outfit
Day 14 - My first big Mistake
Day 15 - Favourite Movie
Day 16 - My Safe Haven
Day 17 - My strongest childhood memory
Day 18 - My first boyfriend/girlfriend
Day 19 - My favourite character from a book/movie
Day 20 - If I could have one Super Power, what would it be?
Day 21 - My worst fashion Faux Pas
Day 22 - What is Love to you?
Day 23 - If I could change one thing . . .
Day 24 - My biggest indulgence.
Day 25 - I can't do without . . .
Day 26 - On a cold, wet/snowy night, I love . . .
Day 27 - My biggest weakness
Day 28 - My biggest strength
Day 29 - My ultimate house
Day 30 - If you really knew me, you would know . . .

Some of them are pretty corny, but I thought it would be fun to get creative with it. Let me know if you're doing this as well!
