Long time, no blog...

Now, it might have occurred to you that you have no idea who I am. So, here's a little about me, accompanied with pictures:

I am a sister to 4 siblings, and live in Colorado. I love to sew (without patterns), play volleyball, be outside with our chickens, draw, play the piano, play the flute, read good books, and do anything that has to do with Middle Earth. I'm not very athletic, but I do enjoy 30 mile bike rides with my older brother and sister, running with my sister, and playing sports with our church (sometimes). I work hard at some sports, but play terribly at others. It all just depends. :)

I love Lord of the Rings, so that's why I started this blog... Well, here are a few pictures to describe me:




Fanciful Farm girl


Lyrical Lass


Medieval Maiden (would be if I could be)

Simple School girl (I'm homeschooled of course)

And, that's who I am.  You even got to see what I look like.  Weird, huh? :)  

And yes, I know: this post has nothing. to. do. with. Lotr.  I'll do another post soon, about Lotr... See ya!

Hobbits



My favorite race in all of Middle Earth has always been hobbits. I love hobbits. They are so small, yet do so much. Let it never be said that size makes a difference. They were small in stature, but big in hearts. Sometimes I wish I could be shorter than I am, but, oh well! I guess I wasn't meant to live in the Shire!
