I thought it would be fun for me to share the story of how Amy and I met...she being in Utah and me in Texas. It was just a year ago (next week). I had discovered her blog in January 2010, stumbling upon her Valentine's day crafts. I got all excited to get crafty, which kinda surprised me (as well as my mother who tried for years to get me interested)! I get very impatient when it comes to crafts and maybe I shyed away from them because all I knew was toll painting and ...

I use this camera on auto (gasp) with the flash popping up for snapshots around my house. I try to keep it handy, but it often doesn’t even have a flash card in it. My husband also says this is his camera and ... Read More about Photography with Kristen Duke~What’s in my bag?
