Hello everyone! I hope that you all had a great weekend. I performed The Nutcracker for the first time ever this past weekend, and it was amazing. I spent everyday at the theatre last week and it was a lot of fun. I absolutely love performing, and I made so many great memories. ❤
As I mentioned in my last post, my family went to Savannah over Thanksgiving. It was a gorgeous day and we all had a great time. We ate at the new Paula Dean restaurant and went to the beach. Down below are a few pictures that I took while we were there. 😀
Side note : Digital Diary reached 1,000 followers in November and I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone! Your support means to much to me! ❤
Favorite photo? Are you a performer? How was your Thanksgiving? Have you ever been to Savannah?
That looks amazing! I’ll have to find my way there someday!

Hi Maddy,
I commented this on your blog the other day, but I thought maybe it got spammed or didn’t send properly so here it is. Apologies if you already recieved it.
Hi! You probably remember contributing to my discussion post on makeup a few weeks ago. If so, you’l recall that I included a section detailing the thoughts of many different teens throughout the blogosphere. The result was amazing and everyone really got into the discussion element of it. So, I was thinking I’d make this a regular thing. If you’re interested in contributing your opinions to these future discussion posts, please let me know.
Then, whenever I need your thoughts, I’ll send out an email (probably monthly) and you can reply with your contributions. If you sign up, you don’t have to participate very time. If you’re ever too busy or just don’t want to contribute that’s totally fine.
Of course, please feel totally free to say no to this.

Hey,
Aw, thank you! I have been wanting to put more pictures on my Etsy shop, but for now I’m trying to get some sales first so that I’m not losing money. I have the pictures printed and sent to me before putting them on my shop and I’d hate to end up with a ton of prints that don’t get sold. I have a good bit right now left over from a craft fair I did, and I’m trying to sell some of those first before buying more prints. 🙂
I do have an online shop where I sell my pictures digitally. I don’t have to buy prints therefore I have a lot more pictures on that one.
Thank you! That picture is a favorite of mine too. I had to put on a canvas and it’s hanging on my wall. 😊
