i got ribbons!
the lake county fair has officially started - and thursday night i got to find out if/how i placed on my entries.
my thunder of louisville photo got a first place! i was pretty unsure about entering this at all ... and apparently the judges really liked it. gold star to april for telling me to enter it.
my interior pool at hearst castle got a second place! i really like this photo ... so i'm pretty happy this one placed.
my necklace/bracelet combo in the last post got a second place, too. no ribbons for my other photos & things. and nothing for my cookies, which disappoints me a little. but i'm happy my photos did as well as they did.
amanda, pay attention to this next part. more people need to enter cakes. this is the second year i've noticed this. this year there were only 6 cakes in the display, although my mom says there were more in the little cooler that i didn't notice. but still - there's a lot of room for someone (*ehem*amanda*ehem*) to come in & blow them away with some great cake decorating.

Yea Becca! I was at the fair last night and I checked your entries out. Impressive ribbonage! I thought you were only entering 2 pictures so I quit looking after I found them and then was surprised when I saw 2 (or 3 I lost count somewhere) more. There was a cool bridge one by the stair end it was taken by an April, was it your friend? I thought it look familar from your pictures of some hike or something. I didn't know you entered a cookie... I walked past thing and wondered if your jalpeno lime on was there.. or was that cilantro lime? Anyways.. I didn't really look. I saw your necklace set and the recycled piece, but I never did find your bead. Where is it hiding at?
Congratulations! I am in love with the black and white photo I kinda want you to market it so I can frame it in my house.
april did have a really cool black/white bridge photo - i think she shot it at the dunes, maybe? my bead - if you came in the set of doors that aren't by the stairs & turned right, it was in the first display case on your left. it is SO HARD to find stuff in that building! we walk through on preview night & i'm wanting to find all my stuff (and april's and becca's), but everything's scattered around with no real order. it's nuts. but i guess you see a lot of other work that way.
bethany - thanks for liking my black/white photo! i could hook you up with an 8x10 if you want it for your house. :)
WOO-HOO!!! WAy to go with all your ribbons!! i just showed Boz your pictures - his reaction ~ "WOW! She's really good!! She shoulda done our wedding." LOL!!
'becca, that's sooooo awesome!!! I love your work and it's great to see you making it a bit more public! I knew they would love it, too! Congratulations! It must feel great! So....about the 8x10s.....????? I'll have to tell you more about it this weekend when I come to YOUR HOUSE.....can I?
congrats! i'm so proud of you!!! and yes. i actually intend to enter next year after i get a little more experience under my belt. not that i have a belt on but i think you know waht i mean.
