If you're on Instagram, then my title made perfect sense to you.
This hashtag has flooded IG over the month of January and has become, well quite honestly....
addicting.
It's a fun little photo challenge that gives you a different prompt for each day.
It has truly been a delight and has given me a glimpse into the lives of so many friends..old and new while allowing them a peek into mine.
I wasn't gonna jump on board at first because I was already doing my Everyday Thanks pics but I caved and joined in. And I'm so glad I did... FUN stuff.
I mean I take pictures of everything anyways...right?
I'm thinking this will definitely be made into a hardcover book at the end of the year.
A book of snippets, glimpses, and preferences...all in neat little squares.
Yep. I can already picture it on my coffee table.
Below are all the pics from January. I numbered the first one but then decided that was too much work.. Besides, y'all are smart folks..left to right.. top to bottom.
- Me
- Breakfast
- Something I adore: the fact that this man will watch Tangled with his granddaughters because they love it so much and he loves them so much and I love him so much. ~sigh. I adore him.
- Letterbox: I learned this was another name for a mailbox. This is the view my letterbox gets to look at every day. Pretty nice huh!
5. Something I wore: my yellow scarf from my momma..it's kinda one of my favorite colors if you can't tell
6. Makes you smile: after 25 years of being "his girl" I'm still smiling :) A lot.
7. Favorite: My all time favorite place to shop.
8. My sky: took this one as I walked to church.
9. Daily Routine
10. Childhood: a friend gave me this little box when I was in 2nd grade and I was so disappointed with it so I gave it to my mom who put Q-tips in it. Well, it moved out with me years later when I got married and has been storing our Q-tips ever since!
11.Where I sleep
12.Close up
13. What's in my bag
14. What I'm reading: it's one I re-read often...I want to point them to Jesus and have a blast while I do it!
15. Happiness: for years now I always do a "high kick" as my family pulls out of the driveway as they leave from a visit. I've now taught my grand kids to do it. But what brings me MUCH happiness today is looking back as I pulled out on my way to stay with our daughter a few days and I see my husband, the pastor, doing a high kick for me...in his suit!! Oh how I love that man!
16. Morning: "Au Naturael"....bed head and all :)
17. Water: not sure if there will be any room for me in this bathtub. #grandkids
18. Something I bought: mustard suede booties for $1.99
19. Sweet: both my girls randomly gave me happies today :)
20. Someone I love
21. Reflection: (I'm watching you Nick Holden and you be looking fine!)
22. My Shoes: Compliments of my sweet Lydia
23. Something old: These are my painting clothes. They've been with me through 5 houses and the Lord only knows how many room makeovers!
24. My Guilty Pleasure: Disney's Good Luck Charlie... I watch it even when the grand kids aren't here! I'm pretty sure me and Amy Duncan are kindred spirits.
25. Something I made: with the help of Nickie Holden and God.
26. Color: .....PINK! I have a feeling I'll be seeing LOTS of this color from now til June.
27. Lunch: Ate these in the car with my way excited husband on the ride home...these were his absolute favorite flavor when he was a kid and he hasn't eaten them in years!
28. Light: taking a break from wedding shopping in the bright sun while Marcus loads up and ties down the goodies:)
29. In my fridge: leftover chicken and dumplings..was in the fridge, now its lunch!
30. Nature: flowers from a friends yard that she blessed me with to brighten my day.
31. Me again: only this time 6 pounds lighter than my day 1 pic and back in a pair of my "kinda skinny' jeans. .. a work in progress.
Well, goodbye January.
