A challenge for myself

 

I've noticed ever since downloading instagram on my phone that I use it a lot.

Way more than my digital camera, which is sad because really, I do love my digital camera.

And I believe I take better pictures with it as well. 

So, I'm challenging myself to use my canon more and my phone less. 

I'll still use it of course because it is fun and easier, 

but I don't want that to be an excuse to not use my canon.  

I love my instagram photos, but the photos taken with my camera seem much more meaningful. 

Plus I've missed the feel of it in my hands. 

Do you have this problem? 

If I had a day to play...

I'm linking up with Gussy Sews today for inspiration workshop week 4! The prompt for this week was "a day to play." What would you do if you had a whole day to play? 

If I had a day just to myself I'd grab a bag of books and go the park to read under a tree.

Here are some of the books I'm wanting to read:

This is the second book in the Hunger Games series. I am actually reading it right now, but I would love a day to finish it. I know that its a book geared towards young adults, but its pretty intense and just really well written. This series sucked me in from the beginning. I wish I could explain what its about, but theres so much to it, that you should just check it out yourself.

I'm a huge fan of Karen Kingsbury. I have never been disappointed when reading her books! The first series I read of hers was the Redemption series and I've read them all at least three times! Every time they bring me to tears. I love how she develops characters and writes about their faith. They are always relatable in some way and how she writes about God is just so amazing. These are two of her most recent books and I cannot wait to read them! 

I'd also take my camera to the park with me because I'd love to have a day with just my camera and me.
