Bittersweet { Natalie }
Hello!
Earlier this week mom, Ally, and I made a Starbucks run for some caffine therapy. Mom ordered a Venti Black Tea shaken with four Splendas. Yes, she is particular :) When it was delivered, I realized it was Bittersweet! She has an iphone which I was able to borrow in order to capture this picture. Her favorite app is called Instagram which I used to edit this photo.I think it is the perfect Bittersweet! Be sure to link up your pictures! I can't wait to see you finds!!

Bittersweet ( Jeana)
Well, I'm back after getting caught up in my birthday last week and missing my post!! I have been extremely busy with senior pics and wedding pics and wedding videos! I had the privilege to photograph my very best friend from high school's senior daughter and we had an amazing time! I think these pics have a touch of bittersweet in them....not just in color but also in emotion as she embarks on her final year of high school!
Hope you all have a great end to your week and a wonderful weekend....I know I will...I am headed to Denver to celebrate the TWO year birthday of my grandson!!!

Bittersweet {Kendall}
Hello all my colorful friends! I think I have a good match this week, with color and meaning!
This weekend I took my two boys, my dad, and my grandpa to the Tulsa Air and Space Museum. It's not my favorite place, probably since I'm a girl, but the boys love it.
The next picture didn't have the color but it is the feeling that is bittersweet for me. My dad was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma in January. He is in remission from that, but we found out last week that a spot he had removed from his thyroid a few weeks ago is malignant. This has been a rough year emotionally for my family. My grandpa currently has cancer all over his body and is suffering from "I only believe what I want to" syndrome. I guess the denial helps him deal with things, but it sure makes it hard on everyone else.
While we were at the museum, they had some veterans there talking about a trip that is available for veterans to fly to Washington DC. My grandpa was so excited, which doesn't happen real often, but when the lady said they would take a trip next year, I had to walk away, crying, because chances are, he won't make it until next year. He, with his positive outlook, wants me to fill out the application so he can go on the trip! So, I love this picture, because these two men mean more to me than almost anything. And this trip to the museum was very bittersweet.
I love your sepia finds! Keep them coming. And good luck on the Bittersweet search.

Week 38, Color Reveal
This week's color has quite a fitting name, the word bittersweet convey's two different emotions at once so it makes since that the crayon wearing this name would give you two totally different colors. When you see this crayon it appears brown but when you color with it comes off burnt orange...As I typically do I went with how it colors on paper and when I saw that it colored burnt orange I knew just want to use for my find! I have these two little Frankoma birds I picked up at the antique store that were originally meant as a gift, but while they perched on top of my curio cabinet waiting for their intended home, they kind of grew on me!
