I couldn't just pick ONE favorite, so this will be one OF my favorites. :) But you must read the story that goes along with the picture of all the little kids. I personally think it is highly amusing. Just go to the link below:

Love your blog! (I'm a longtime reader who rarely delurks, shame on me.)
Oh, and a fellow Goonies freak. I dragged my mom to Oregon one year to see all the film sites.
I'd enter LA but I don't even know what pdf means???

These are so cute!!! My favorite photos are the ones hanging on my wall that I took when I was in Big Bend, TX.
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh such an awesome giveaway! i actually just bought embroidery supplies yesterday to start doing this!! it would be totally perfect if i won this!
ReplyDeleteso my favorite amusing picture comes from the etsy sellers, mixed species. they are a riot!! this "radicool" t shirt photoshoot reminds me of my boyfriend, who has the beer gut...and would totally fit in with them and do a crazy photoshoot with his friends.

dang! i always forget my email!! loirinha_5@yahoo.com
ReplyDeletethanks! :)
okay... my fav. picture ever is one that i saw a long time ago in an art gallery in santa fe, nm. it was like $3500 for a little 8x10. anyway, i have never forgotten it. the image was something like this: an open yard w/ a building far in the background, a marching band conductor is marching along wearing full uniform and carrying one of those stick thingies (not sure what they're called). and following this conductor is 8 or 10 laughing children marching in a line. i don't remember who the photographer was or the name of the photo, but it has continued to bring a smile on my face.

ReplyDeleteI've loved this photo of Elsie and Jeremy since she posted it. It's just a great photo, everything about it. I love all of her others and I have many other favs but this one keeps sticking in my head. :D Super job.
I love Elsie and have been wanting some of these patterns, even though I haven't embroidered in years! It could be time to start again.

this is one of my favorites from a long time ago, my good friend brought his camera down to the embarcadero in san francisco while a gigantic pillow fight was happening. i could not stop laughing at this album.

Hi Leigh-Ann,
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I'm a guest on your blog and I LOVE IT!!!! You're such a creative and inspiring person!! And I'm also a great, great fan of Elsie, so here's my favorite picture!
You can see it at my blog http://jenneke-justwhoiam.blogspot.com/ , you have to scroll to 26 december and then look at the picture of my parents and my children with the christmastree. I can't help smiling when I see this one, because of the glasses of my mother, my son in a box and my twindaughters who look so, so ugly on this photo...lol.
My parents were killed in a car accident 6 years ago, my son is almost 25 now and my twindaughters are 2 gorgeous looking girls of 22.
You can imagine why this picture means a lot to me!!!
Lots of greetings from Holland!
Jenneke
Oh my goodness.... I love that picture of Tom he is so darn cute.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure what my favorite photo is so I will let others win this on. Plus I am the worst embroider ever...LOL
I am leaving for New York in like 27 hours.... EEEEKKKKK

-This is my favorite photo recently. My dd Meghi decided to play dress up with her kitten Miley and her (the kitten's) facial expression is priceless. She's simply saying, "Really?!"
Thanks for the opportunity.
