<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">My very own <a href="http://madewell.com/">Madewell</a> bag. This bag is the cutest thing and I had my eye on it for a while, but because of the high price, I waited. Little did I know it would shortly go on sale with an extra 40% off. My parents surprised me with buying it for my birthday. Happy Belated Birthday to me ;) </span><br />

to be a photographer, one must photograph no amount of book learning, no checklist of seminars attended, can substitute for the simple act of taking pictures. experiencing is the best teacher of all. and for that, there is no guarantee that one will become an artist. only the journey matters. ~ harry callahanHannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09622355762969214337noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7188064823491018460.post-43249518255902314082013-11-08T23:09:00.001-05:002013-11-08T23:09:04.230-05:00cutie you are <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">A little story for my sweet readers... (This was written many months ago, and added to here and there.)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">"Four years ago, my brother packed up his belongings and headed off to college. He's one of my best friends and having him go away, living elsewhere, and not seeing him everyday was hard on me. I couldn't imagine him not being here everyday. The feeling of four in the house was so unknown, because all my life, there had been five.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">Time is something that flashes before our eyes so quickly. Years can pass by before realizing all those "moments'' were meant to be remembered. Even just the small ones. The feeling of waking up to the sound of family all under one roof someday becomes quiet once one moves out. You realize how much you appreciate all that you had and moments you'll never forget become treasured stories to tell and look back on and smile. I never want to take a single day for granted.There's little blessings in the every day whether big or small. Sometimes the smaller ones mean far more later on.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">I think of my 16th birthday. Going up to Josh's college to bring him home. My mom and I spent the night at a hotel right down the street from his college. We enjoyed spending time together. We had never been away with just the two of us. It was peaceful and found ourselves giddy with it being so quiet. My mom and I felt like going out for a late night Meijer run. We were hungry because we didn't really have much to eat for dinner. I saw someone with clearanced lunch meat and rotiseree chicken. My mom and I started laughing at the idea of getting that and having it be just the two of us eating it in our hotel room. So there we were, back at the hotel eating chicken together and cracking up. A moment that I won't ever forget. :) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">In the morning we packed up our things, ate breakfast and headed over to help Josh bring all of his suitcases to the car. After several trips to and from the car we were on our way. </span><span lang="" style="font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<span lang="" style="font-family: inherit;">
</span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<span lang="" style="font-family: inherit;">
</span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="" style="font-family: inherit;">I think back to when Josh left for college nearly four years ago. I wondered how I would make it through four years knowing that one of my best friends was leaving and I wouldn't get to see him every day. My family has always been so close and it's all too rare in this day and age. My family's relationship is something that I am so thankful to have as I know many families are so distant nowadays. Yes, it was hard at first to just let Josh go and being on his own for the first time but God gave us all that we needed to go on and live our lives. My mom and I basically cried for the first 3 years every time we said goodbye while visiting him up at school and having him come home. Christmas and summer break were always the hardest. He came home for a month at Christmas and almost 4 months during the summer. When he's home things are all as they used to be. And I've learned to appreciate them far more than I ever did. Josh is graduating in May. He's engaged to a sweet girl who loves him with all her heart and I am so thankful to be gaining a sister. One who shares many interests as I. October is the wedding and plans are all in the works.</span><br />
<span lang="" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<span lang="" style="font-family: inherit;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">There's memories I keep in my heart.. many car rides with music blaring loud, talking and laughing, summertime and floating on rafts while hearing him talk about work. i'll never forget those car rides. those were things i loved back then and every time he came home from school. i looked forward to those probably the most. because it was us and like things were as they used to be. i still love those rides when he comes home. i won't forget the midnight runs up to the gas station in the summer to get a frozen drink . i won't forget seeing his car pull into our court and especially those hugs.</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> "</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">Here we are four years later. He's graduated, and getting married today. Time sure flies by. </span><br />

I have a box filled with journaling paper products, gathered together from far-away friends letters. Pretties just waiting to used and created with-. I'm a journaler, always inspired, and always ready with new ideas. {If you watched my room tour, you may have noticed this box which held letters before now holding inspiration lovelies.} <3 Where do you keep ephemera?</div>

I honestly can't put it into words , when I think about how many friendships blogger has given me. Ones that I am dearly thankful to call some of my closest friends. Having a blog, and meeting others through comments and links , you'd really be surprised with just what you may find. I can think of so many people who someday, I'll have the blessing of meeting "in person". I know there are people out there who simply can't even begin to understand why someone would even think of meeting up with someone they had never seen in person before, but I think all of us bloggers can truly understand, that meeting another "blogger friend" is one of our dreams. I had the opportunity to meet two sisters who are so dear to my heart, in June. To think that actually happened, is just amazing. I'm looking forward to meeting others that I've read their blogs, or exchanged letters with someday. I hope next year will hold lots of travel, not only a trip when I graduate, but also meetings with some of my best friends. I hope to head out to a retreat also, so saving money must begin soon. :)<br />

For the longest time I've wanted to put up a vlog but haven't gotten around to it until now. Some of my faraway friends have wanted to see my room so I thought it would be fun to make a room tour video. When I made this video last Saturday, I didn't realize how long editing and uploading would take. After many hours of editing and uploading issues, I give you my first ever Youtube video. Please excuse all the mistakes and new edits on the video. Since this was my first video I've edited, I'm just getting the hang of it. Along with a couple parts I had to retake: I didn't realize my address was showing when I opened up my letter box. :) I hope you enjoy watching and I'd love to hear your feedback. :) </div>

I know dear sweet people all over the world who send me lovelies in the mail. Keeping the art of snail mail alive is something I'm happy to be apart of. Blogger opened so many wonderful friendships that I'm so thankful for and I couldn't imagine life without all my dear friends. Here's a peek at this mornings trip to the post office. :)<br />

I kept hearing about a company called Ipsy but didn't know much about it until I talked to a friend. Many beauty "youtubers" are subscribed to Ipsy, and I watched their videos but still had questions. For those of you who don't know what Ipsy is, it's a monthly makeup subscription website . Every month they'll send you 4 to 5 beauty products along with a makeup bag. Some products will be trial size and others will be the full product. When I first heard this, I wasn't too sure if it would be worth it, but I decided to give it a go, and am so happy I did.<br />
<br />
Each month you pay $10 and it arrives in a pink padded envelope..totally me. ;) My first bag arrived in April and I was so excited to find it waiting in the mailbox. I wasn't too impressed with the products inside but had heard Ipsy will have a few really good months and then one month the products will be okay. Some people will like the products one month because it's more "them" and other people will like products the next month that maybe the others won't like. But for $10 you get to try products you might not be familiar with.<br />
<br />
July's Bag came on Monday and I was super excited. Summer themed! Though I would say I'm about ready for summer to be over (this 93 degree weather really makes it hard to not miss winter). Anyways, every month I see sneak previews of pictures and I could tell this month was going to be good. :)<br />

I don't even know where to begin. Last Sunday will be remembered as one of my favorite days, a dream come true. I finally met blogger friends who I've known for 4 and a half years. When I was younger I always wanted to find a blog written by someone my age. My mom read a few blogs and came across a girls blog who had a link for a website called American Girl Fan. Little did I know this blog could open up so many doors to wonderful friendships.<br />
<br />
In January, 2009 I started to leave comments on Liz's blog and we then became pen pals. I later started writing her sister Hope. We have written letters back and forth and exchanged gifts at birthdays and Christmas so I feel I really know them. I was so nervous not knowing if it would be the same in person. From the minute they walked through the door, Liz and Hope felt like dear friends I'd known all my life. True kindred spirits.<br />
<br />
My family had a great day with their family. They came over for lunch and spent the afternoon with us talking, playing volleyball and bean bag toss, and enjoying the beautiful day God provided. After a great day at home, they joined me at Vera Bradley for my birthday celebration.<br />
<br />
Last summer when my Vera Bradley Store was having an event I put my name in a drawing and won the grand prize of the night. I couldn't believe it! I won a party for 10 which came with $100 gift card for me, and $20 gift card for each guest as well as awesome gift bags for everyone and wonderful food provided. The night was wonderful and I'm so thankful to have spent it with such dear people.<br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">If you haven't heard about this and are wondering what this means, once Google Friend Connect closes you won't get any new updates from the blogs you read. I knew I didn't want to lose all the blogs I read so I signed up. If you are interested in still reading my blog, please sign up. You can click the button right above my followers. Thanks! :)</span><u></u><br />

I truly am beyond blessed. :) <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0lMT-nNwzgSyYjkx_sXe6o3CNZ8r4zuHAGoUPhlrW13RFlUI0nC2NDNKsAM_eVC-ZbX2FGDnPXip_oXVY4s_zWnu5ez4nEtbPnLJ6GAcwZpxvyEPVxlnfmEzUSOau0bpckgplWZNHK96r/s640/blogger-image--588185550.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0lMT-nNwzgSyYjkx_sXe6o3CNZ8r4zuHAGoUPhlrW13RFlUI0nC2NDNKsAM_eVC-ZbX2FGDnPXip_oXVY4s_zWnu5ez4nEtbPnLJ6GAcwZpxvyEPVxlnfmEzUSOau0bpckgplWZNHK96r/s640/blogger-image--588185550.jpg" /></a></div>Hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09622355762969214337noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7188064823491018460.post-26250633329631531262013-03-19T22:28:00.002-04:002013-03-19T22:28:53.668-04:00Just One Of Those Days<div style="text-align: left;">

Well today was one of those kind of days for my mom and I. The kind of day where you feel like everything is fast paced and you can't keep up. The type of day that you feel like you're the only one with something wrong while everyone else's day is wonderful. In times like these it's far too easy to feel discouraged.</div>

I sent a text to my brother and thought I would share it with you in this little space of my own. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
From my brother "I hope your day went well. :)"</div>

My text: "Thanks, It's been a horrible day. haha Dad's car needs to go in because it sounds like the exhaust is so loud but mom took the jeep in because the air bag light kept coming on and they said $500 to $1000 depending on once they opened it up. It would be one of two problems. Mom said to hold off because Dad's car needed to come in. They asked about doing an oil change and found out it needs back brakes, rotors, two tires which would be $500 and some dollars. Just called after taking off rotors. Found leak that now adds $226 more dollars and Dad's needs to go in still. What a day! Never seem to be able to catch up." </div>

The phone wouldn't stop ringing and so many other things were going on throughout the day that it was just one of those days. </div>

In life we go through things and at times it feels like nothing goes right. I am so thankful to be surrounded by a loving family who is always there to encourage and be there for me and friends that I can just go to and share. I know that no matter what Jesus will get us through anything. That is a promise. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I had two songs going around my head throughout the day and felt encouraged. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Forever Reign by One Sonic Society and Everybody has those days by Jessa Anderson. We sang Forever Reign this past week at church and it's one of my favorites. :)</div>

So if you're having one of those days, know that you aren't alone and you'll get through it. :) </div>
