nice to meet you || blogging link up




I've been thinking about figuring out something like this for a while, and I am finally getting it going. This week is going to be filled with a bunch of goodies! erm. erm. giveaways and photo challenges and tutorials
and this is the first part of it: 

                    Since we are all friends here and friends know each other...



 I thought I'd figure out some way to get to know the details about you that wouldn't normally come up in a conversation. 

So here is the deal: 
- simply copy the questions below and answer them in a blog post
- then come back here and link them up below
Simple right? okay, let's get this party going!


describe yourself: tea-drinker. snaphappy photographer. period drama watcher. rainy-day lover. blogger. dreamer. lover of schedules. obsessive list maker.


if you were a crayon, what color would you be: robins egg blue. or golden sunshine yellow.

your passion: I want to make a difference in life. I want to be able to make things beautiful.and I want to be able to capture people's lives through my camera. I want to be known as someone who LIVED.

fangirl over:  Scotty McCreery and Anne of Green Gables and C.S. Lewis

favorite drink:  chai tea or herbal tea.

obsessed with: nail polish and tea.

top 5 favorite things: cameras. people. rain. tea. libraries. scarves.

gains inspiration from: rain, books, and pintrest.

favorite songs: I Love You This Big -Scotty McCreery  :: Good to be Alive -Jason Gray :: First Dance - Amanda Falk :: Shooting Star - Owl City

favorite book of the Bible: Ephesians. ((gah, it is so good.)) or 1 John. both are amazing!

a quote: "The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why." -mark twain.

ideal weather: cold and cloudy with rain. or snowing.

a quirk or two: I collect a lot of little things: scraps of paper, quotes, photos, and tea bag papers, paint chips, scraps of cloth, ribbons, etc. I hatehatehate the sound of scraping, fingernails, chalkboard, something on concrete. I start going crazy when I hear it. and I'd rather be freezing cold than hot.

    Gracie: I've always wanted to have a girl named Gracie. and in Irish it means love

a few favorite movies: October Baby :: Fireproof :: For the Love of Grace :: Love Comes Softly series :: North & South

a perfect simple day: oh, it would be raining, and I would drink lots of tea and coffee and I'd spend the day watching period dramas (north & south, emma, p&p, anyone!?!) I might bake a little, take photographs, listen to music, write, and crafting would be added in there somewhere.


well, now it's YOUR turn: answer the questions in your own blog post, and come back here and link up!
