Hello my friends!
We have yet another humorous (if I may say so myself) Q&A series down below for you all to enjoy. (They just keep getting better don’t they?) Oh! And before it slips my mind, I would like to remind all of you, to take part in the girls’ How We Wear Vintage Fashion Challenge! We have $120 dollars worth of prizes to wet your whistle, and we hope you will decide to join in on the fun! Its worth it! And now, enjoy the video!
I am so glad you all put up such nice questions! It really makes the videos so much more fun to put together! Say!
On another note, I’ll bet you all would like to know that we have just reached over 200,000 page views! We couldn’t have done it with out you all of course and I want to tell you how much we three love each and every one of you! We keep saying how much fun it would be to host some sort of blogging event so that we could meet you all in person! We seem to have a lot in common, and the biggest common denominator is our personal relationship with our Loving Savior, Jesus Christ. We praise Him for the work He has allowed us to do through this blog, and it is our constant prayer that everything we share with you all would be edifying to you, and glorifying to Him. Soli Deo Gloria! To God be the glory!
Our family lived in Ohio until I was seven when we moved to Texas. The other families we have met since 2007 are such a blessing!!! Definitely my favorite part of where we live! Friendship is such a blessing!
My favorite bible verse would have to be Romans 12:2
“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may see what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
A blogging event sounds like fun! We really enjoy following y’all’s blog!
Blessings in Christ,
Sarah
Oh my! I don’t think I knew that you used to live in Washington! Too bad you don’t live here now…I could have met you 🙂 Whereabouts did you live when you were here? I do agree, though, that people here can be a little stingy. My teacher says that Oregonians are much nicer than Washingtonians–at least on the road, haha 🙂

Hi Hannah!
We lived in the Portland Oregon/Vancouver Washington area. We live in Oregon growing up, and then moved across the river border line into Vancouver to be closer to our Church. We love and miss our old home State so much! Hmm. I wouldn’t know the difference in people’s friendliness between the States because of the age I was at when we were there–you know, the meandering young mind of a child.
Thanks for the sweet comment!

The eldest sister & singer
Thanks so much for sharing these Q+A installments – love listening to them! It looks like you sisters have a lot of fun together 🙂 And to answer one of your questions…one of my favorite Bible verses is Psalm 37:4. Thanks again!
I love your Q and A’s. They’re so much fun to listen to while I’m doing an unpleasant job (cleaning out under my exceedingly dusty bed, for instance). How many of these do you plan to do?
Rainbow Valley is my favorite and my little sister’s favorite, too! The Meredith children are adorable.
And I would say Susan or Miss Cornelia are two of my favorite characters…my sister and I are often quoting them!
Colossians 3:23!
Oh, you have to read Rilla of Ingleside!
Rilla is the second to last book in the Anne series and it is by far my favorite book!
You girls would love this book because it is about the Meredith family living on the Home Front and pulling through the heart breaking years of World War I.
Rilla is the only Meredith daughter who does not go to college but helps her family at home during the war 🙂 Rilla also has a beautiful relationship with one of her older brothers and she learns the art of serving and living for others.
I have really enjoyed these Q and A series! You are such an inspiration to me!
May the Lord bless each one of you!
This is late, but I just got around to watching this. 🙂 I enjoyed it! I am definitely influenced by my parents, and by various mothers and young women in our community. For writing, history, languages, etc, I am influenced by JRR Tolkien and my Medivael literature and history teacher.
I know I am posting late on this–I hope that’s alright–but I only just got to watch this video today. It was so much fun! Having several sisters myself, I love watching the way you three interact–there are so many things that I relate to so well! It makes me laugh with delight. I guess many things about close sister relationships will always e universal. 🙂
Charlotte, I know what you mean about struggling with pride–I have that struggle, too, and it often seems impossible to be humble! I should remember more often to ask Jesus to give me the grace to be humble.
Jessica, I love your top–it’s so pretty! And, like you, I love darker, deeper, or neutral shades, or if there’s a bright shade, I like something that tones it down a bit.
I lived in Ohio for three years because I went to college there–and I love it, because I’m from Pennsylvania, and there are many similarities between the two states. It was neat to hear you talking about your experience living there after being in the West–as I told Charlotte, my family moved around so much, and it was often hard, because people were not always very welcoming to newcomers. So it’s wonderful that you have such a great community!
Oh, thank you so, so much for the long answer – the local question was mine. 🙂 I’m a student of English language and culture, and anything of this kind, as ordinary as it may seem, is hugely appreciated! It just really helps to paint the picture, to get a feel of the place; I want to be a translator and you never know when a piece of info lodged somewhere in the brain may come in useful in that line of work. 🙂 And it was fun to listen to. 😀
I’m not sure I’d want to live there on long term terms (I’m just too patriotic for that!), but it does sound like a nice place to at least spend some time…
I wonder who influences me most. I know I’m strongly influenced by C. S. Lewis’ writing – so much so that I often don’t realise it’s his ideas I’m operating with. And I think my eldest sister, who at this time is probably also my best friend, has been a huge influence on my life, helping me along with my studies for example (she was the first one to study English), earlier she was the one who pointed me in the way of various influential books (Lewis included) and so on. And then of course my parents, where it’s really difficult to discern to what extent exactly the influence goes…
My favourite Bible verse(s), I’ve decided, is Psalm 139, especially from verse 9 to about verse 12. It’s beautifully poetical and, in the context of the whole Psalm, also so very reassuring.
And I have a long term affinity to John 3:16, which felt a bit like cheating to post, but, well, that’s what it is. 🙂
