Super Macro
As I was trying to take a picture of the necklace in the following post, I pulled out the camera manual and found out how to take really close-up photos, using the super macro mode. While I was at it I took a few pictures of my quilt, and since blogs are nice places to put photos, I thought I'd put them here. I rather liked the rich colors and detailed texture. They look even better when enlarged.
Win it forward ...
I just got lucky and won something on a friend's blog and now I am passing it forward. How lucky are you? I double dare you to accept this challenge. This game involves a few of my favorite things: handmade goods, creativity, and gift-giving.
Here are the tagging instructions: The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you.
This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2. What I create will be just for you.
3. It'll be done this year. (might be a little while)
4. You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be a story. It may be poetry or an article on properly cleaning your face before a masque. I may draw or paint something. I may bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows? Not you, that's for sure!
5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.
The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must re-post this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me! Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it.
Look what I got from Kristy! Sorry I was a slow poke about posting this, but thank you Kristy for this very cool necklace medallion. That's so neat that you made it. For you lucky five who get a gift from me, please do not have high expectations ... that way you may actually be impressed.

Uncle Steven
Daniel's brother Steven came down from Rexburg this weekend and we enjoyed hanging out with him on Saturday. Spencer was a little shy at first, as he is with most people, but after getting to ride Uncle Steven's skateboard he really warmed up to him. Come again soon!
