Hey all!
This past week has been Bus-y with a capital B! So… every minute that I spend typing I am not spending on sewing a dress that really needs to get finished, so I’ll be brief with my intro to this post π

I love your photography! So many lovely pictures. π I hope you are successful at the estate sale!
I love these new posts! I adore hearing about your sewing projects (and seeing of course π ) but these Lately posts are just as much fun!
Your photography skills are amazing! I love the different lighting and angles you use! Hey! You could do a post on your tips for photography!!!
My goodness you have lots of strawberries! Sounds like our boysenberries. Care for a virtual trade? π
Thanks so much, Emily! Good idea! Maybe I will to a photography tips post… Oooh, I’m already thinking of some content… π

You volunteer at Bible Bee?! Maybe we got a box you packed! π I’m 23, but my youngest sister is participating in the Bible Bee, and another sister and I love it so much that we bought Sword Studies even though we’re too old!
And I can’t wait to see your Goodwill remake!

Wow how cool! If one of your sisters (or both!) make it to Nationals, maybe we could meet you all, as we are (Lord willing) going to be volunteering there again this year! That would be so cool!
We are looooving the Sword Studies so far, (we aren’t participating in the actual competition, but we decided just to get the studies for the first time, because we wanted to be around our good friends who host the “Family Bonfire”)! Such a rigorous, insightful way to study God’s word!
