Going on Vacation!!

Hello everyone! Gabrielle and I are going on a two week vacation with our family out to California. We are planning on doing some posts while on vacation, so look out for those. We will also post pictures from our trip once we get back.

We will have our etsy shop closed during the two week period. So if nothing shows up in our shop, that's why.

I'm so happy to have finished the blogging challenge. It was fun while it lasted, though it would have been easier if done in the 30 day time frame, instead of 11 days. =)

30 Day Challenge - Day 9

Day 23: {A way in which you want to be remembered.}

I want to be remembered for the following. My love for my family. Being a faithful daughter. One who wants to help others in dressing modestly. My love of sewing, reading, and history.  

Day 24: {A movie no one would expect you to love.}

Gosh, I don't know.

I do enjoy a good mystery like the Sherlock Holmes movies with Basil Rathbone & Nigel Bruce



And I love a good World War Two movie. One of my favorites is Go for Broke! {1951}.

As is Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo! {1944} a favorite too.

Day 25: {A recipe.}

One of our favorite recipes around the holidays is Strawberry Pretzel Jello Salad. Yummy.

30 Day challenge - Day 5, 6, 7, and 8

Day 15: {A person you admire.}

General Robert Edward Lee. A man of honor and duty. When things went bad he didn't blame anyone, he took all the blame. Also before he made important decisions, he would pray and read his bible to find out God wanted him to do. 

Day 16: {A song that makes you cry.}

Here's a secret. Songs, books, and movies they all don't make me cry. My sisters say I have no feelings. But I do. =) So there is no song that makes me cry.

Day 17: {An art piece.}

I love this sculpture by Edgar Degas!

Day 18: {A time when you felt passionate and alive.}

Ha! I still do! =) 

Day 19: {A talent of yours.}

I have an engineering mind, so I can figure out just about anything I want by myself. 

Day 20: {A hobby of yours.}

My biggest hobbies are: sewing, reading, history, and anything crafty. 

Day 21: {Something you know you do differently than most people.}

Before I was gluten-free I would have this delicious combination from Panera Bread. I loved having Black Bean soup and a cinnamon crunch bagel toasted with butter. But this the strange part, I would dip my bagel in my soup. Yum! Or, I would dip the same kind of bagel in the frozen Amy's mac-and-cheese. Yummy!  

Day 22: {A website.}

My favorite website besides blogger would have to be one of the following:
