Ready for the challenge? Lets go!
Day 6: Chair
This is not just a chair, but a HIGH chair — a very special high chair to me! It belonged to my daddy’s family. He sat in it as a child (and remember, he was 90 when he died). Most likely all of his siblings used it, I know I used it as a child when I ate at my grandparent’s house (ALL of the grandchildren used it). Once it migrated to my parent’s house, all of their grandchildren used it — including my sweet girl. I know at least one of their great-grandchildren used it too. When I was a child, my grandmother had about 20 coats of bright green paint on it (ha). I don’t know how daddy removed all of that paint, but he did. To me, this is a very special chair.
Day 7: Garden
I had just finished gathering eggs and putting them away when I realized I had some veggies in the garden to pick. That is why they are in my egg basket. Let me advise that baskets with big holes are not ideal for carrying okra — obviously.
Day 8: Lunch
Chick-fil-a~ Enough said.
Day 9: Big
I love my big Camelbak bottle! It holds 25 ounces. My husband picked it up the other day and turned it upside down. He finally said, “How do you use this thing?!?!” I burst out laughing and said, “Bite and suck — bite and suck.” Ha ha.
Day 10: Your Favorite Color
Ok, I am cheating a bit. I can’t pick just ONE favorite color. I do admit I love jewel tones better than pastels (unless it is a beautiful soft pink rose). But this is a photo of a hydrangea bloom that I have in my house. I love the rich blue color!
Day 11: Letter
I’m sure most people will take a picture of a letter from the alphabet, but my mind was on this letter my sister found. Before I left for Disney back in April, I wrote both of my parents letters explaining how much I loved them. I told them things from my childhood (good memories) that I would always carry in my heart. In the event that we weren’t together again on this side of heaven, I wanted them to know how much they meant to me. My sister found my Mom’s letter when cleaning.

I love the high chair. What my daughter (an avid thrifter) wouldn’t give for that one! Love your veggie basket. I wish we had Chick-Fil-A where we lived. Have a beautiful tomorrow1
The high chair is a real treasure. Wonderful to think so many sweet babies have sat in that seat.
Both of my babies have used the high chair! And I would love so much to have Chick fil a, bojangles, cook out, smithfields, and my family. Love you! Hope you have a good day.
Beth, every time I visit here to look at your photos I’m in awe. You take the most gorgeous pictures. Have you thought about doing photography as a side business? I love how you capture something simple with such beauty. Your letter is awesome and I love your veggies and flowers. Gorgeous!! 🙂
Blessings,
