I am very excited and extremely honoured to be part of this amazing Alphanumeric blog hop organised by the fantastic Mel from I Speak Melsh. I would have hated to miss out on this great opportunity and it fits in so perfectly with Blogging for Scrapbookers (the Shimelle class, that I have just completed!). It is great to feel involved with such a friendly blogging community and it's fantastic that you have now joined us via this blog hop.
The blog hop starts with Mel at I Speak Melsh then continues as follows
You should have arived here from one of my favourite blogs 'Captured on Film' with the talented Jo. If you are lost please refer to the list above!
Initially I was unsure what I was going to blog about for my given Alphanumeric, now I have hundreds of ideas and have to reduce it all down to something not too long and boring! I was going to start off by saying this is the smallest perfect number, the atomic number of carbon, the number of sides in a cube, and the number of legs an insect has... I think you have now guessed!
I could talk about the M6, 6 geese a laying, 6 degrees of seperation, sixer in cubs (DS was recently made a sixer!), six feet under, 6th sense, 6x6 papers or what I was doing on 06/06/06 (but sadly cannot remember and have no photos taken that day either!)
Instead I will mention
which reminds me of turning 6 years old ( and also has a poem called Furry Bear which is so close to Furry Pig it deserves a mention!). So here are some photos of DD and DS on their sixth birthdays a few years ago ( DD is now a 'Tween' and DS is reaching to double figures soon!)
I haven't got any pictures of me at 6 but a cousin posted one of me on Facebook and I think it is the nearest I can find although I am not sure when it was taken exactly. I could be 4 or 5 but for the purposes of this blog hop we will say 6!! Have you any pictures of you at age about 6?
I would also like to do the folowing 6 things and may even document how it goes in blog posts:-
- look up my 6th folder of photographs and post the 6th picture
- make 6 LO's in the next 6 weeks (that will get me going!)
- in keeping with my phrase for 2011, sort out 6 areas in my house
- make 6 Pay it Forward items
- visit 6 new blogs (I might even manage this today on the blog hop!)
- send 6 handmade cards to a random 6 people who leave comments on this post!
Thank you so much for visiting my humble blog amongst all these completely, amazingly awesome blogs. I can't wait to get hopping through them all myself. Please head off to Donna's blog at Creating Room , this is a new blog to me and one I hope to visit more frequently in the future.
Todays post was brought to you by the number...
