I have really enjoyed participating in Photo Roulette and Flashback Friday the past couple of weeks. Cara at Mischief and Laughs (the host of Photo Roulette) tells me what folder and photo to go to, and then I can tell the story around it for Flashback Friday. This tends to mean that my photos also work for In the Photo Friday, because most of my photos up until recently were of me at various events.
