I’m BOLD!
My hubby & I moved from Illinois to North Carolina…just because we wanted a change. Quit our jobs, got new ones (thankfully) & moved to a town where we new NO ONE! It’s been quite the adventure thus far!
carrie says
I’M BOLD because….I had my sweet baby boy au naturale 7 months ago! Whew, crazy challenging but good. :)
Reid says
I’M BOLD!!!
I recently painted our guest bath black! Corny for my ‘bold moment’ but with two small kids (Irish twins at that!), that’s about as bold as it gets these days! :)
nicole says
I’M BOLD! I did go skydiving actually and my parachute didn’t open!!! Thank the Lord there was a back-up!!
erica p. says

I just survived the stomach virus that affected me, my husband and 3 young kids…all at the same time! Not exactly bold, but brave!
Mel says
I’M BOLD !
After 7 years with a great man, I decided I needed to figure out who I really was, what I had to offer, and what I wanted … and so I left. After 2 years of figuring myself out (still learning), I realized the right man for me was a longtime friend … after just a few weeks, he and I went travelling through Europe for a month, moved in together, got a puppy – burger would love him – and are planning for the rest…
Moira says
I’M BOLD! Maybe because I left a good job to go to grad school…
lauren says
I’M BOLD!! I took off a semester of school to study abroad (in Barcelona I might add) to live with a woman who spoke zero English and take classes completely in Spanish! It was a great experience and I would love a piece of art in my office to connect me back with my days in beautiful Barcelona!
My Beautiful Life says
I love the house print!
I’M BOLD
-I met my husband by walking up to him, telling him I thought he was cute, and that I liked his hair. I then asked if I could take a picture with him and tell people at home he was my boyfriend. 6 months later he called me after asking numerous people for my number, 5 months after that we were engaged, and 4 months later *WE GOT MARRIED*.
Now after 10 Years together, we’ve got two boys, and he’s still the man I adore, the love of my life, and my best friend.
p.s.
Oh, and yes, I chopped off 6 inches, with my own two hands (though I did get it fixed) more than once, and had pink hair in high school)

I’m BOLD!
I take wine classes and the last one we had was on Champagnes, and I learned how to saber a champagne bottle open with a sword and I ACTUALLY DID IT! In front of a whole class of men who wussed out completely. Way out of my wallflower comfort zone. :)

I have a low paying job in the arts and I LOVE it…plus I didn’t sell out for $$ like everyone I graduated with did.
Amanda says
I’m BOLD! And one of the boldest things I’m going to do is challenge all of the women who attend my (soon-to-be-planned) wedding to donate their hair to Locks of Love the day after the wedding. I still have to plan this little charitable day, but I think it’s going to be awesome!

..because I want to become BOLD again! This trait got buried way to long! But now watch out world, here I come!
Benedicte says
“I’m Bold”
because I moved to Utah when I was 19. All by myself. with only 3 bags of stuff.
I have been here almost 12 years and still feel that it was a very “bold” move to make at such a young age.
Emilie says
I’m BOLD and I bought a recycled glass vase (like the large ones you had in your living room at your first house) and turned it into a candle holder for a tea light. Love it.
