DAY 8

...a picture that makes you laugh.




unflattering? highly likely.
uncontrollable laughter?
every.single.time.

you had to be there...

DAY 7

...a picture of your most treasured item.




I am slightly kidding when I post this picture...and yet, if you know me and what this KitchenAid mixer means, you know that I'm not totally kidding.

I earned this mixer. I remember the day in 2006 when I finally earned it. I may have cried.

Earning this mixer meant that I had succeeded in beating something that wanted to take my life.
I love baking and I love my KitchenAid mixer, but most importantly, I love my life and the fact that it was saved.

DAY 5

...a picture of your favorite memory.

okay, this is impossible.
I have WAY too many "favorite" memories to pick just ONE.
however, any time spent with these two girls is ALWAYS a favorite memory. I love them. a lot.



2007: watching the sunrise on top of the mountain (Lizard's Mouth) with bagels and hot chocolate.

DAY 4

...a picture of your night.





A Saturday night?
Babysitting, of course.
I promise, they are fun kids. I just like to make faces. It makes them laugh, which is one of the best sounds in the world.

DAY 3

...a picture of the cast from your favorite show.

I'm not a television show junkie.
I don't dream about characters or talk to them as if they are real and in my life.
And yet, I do have a few faves.
But, the ultimate shout-out has to go to...

Alias.



Many a night were spent on the edge of my seat wondering where Sydney Bristow would go next and what color hair she would have as she kicked butt.

DAY 2

...a picture of you and the person you have been the closest with the longest.



Jordan - best friend since age 2.
I consider her my sister.
and yes, we ran 13.1 miles together and talked the entire way.

30 DAY CHALLENGE. DAY 1

My best friend is doing it.
Facebook is doing it.
I might as well jump on the band wagon...
