Gratitude Challenge (II)

#4 I am grateful for "the park" where there are always beautiful sunsets. "The park" is only about a two-minute walk away coming here every evening is a treat. Beautiful water, docked boats, and the Florida sky.

#5 I am grateful for my sista'! Emily and I had a girls night the other night that entailed chips n' salsa, cookies, a couch, talks, and laughs. LOVEEE her!

It also must be stated that I had many other things I was grateful for and I may just just have to do this more than once. :)

Gratitude Challenge

I was challenged by Tara Whitney (http://tarawhitney.com/justbeblogged/), an incredibly inspiring photographer from California, to take the gratitude challenge. That is, to take five pictures in one day that express gratitude. I absolutely loved the idea and yesterday was spent being grateful for all the many things I've been blessed with.

#1 I am grateful for my quiet time. The time I can spend intimately knowing God more deeply. There's nothing better than waking up, praying and opening His word.

#2 I am grateful for alone time at Panera. I love that I can spend time reading a book with a good lunch and be wonderfully content. Oh! ..and of course the mountain dew!

#3 I am grateful for these girls (and Kylie the doggie)! I have watched these little lovelies grow up and I just love every ounce of them. The giggles, the constant bandaids (note: pointer finger), freckles sprinkled across the nose, random dancing, and dress up, of course! Thank you Lord for this family!

This is Joy. Her name is appropriate. :)

Today I was flipping through a book called "Great Escapes" while sitting on a pretty Anthropologie couch. I've been blessed to travel (and live) in some beautiful places and can easily say that Leland is a town that would qualify as a "great escape." I long to return to this quaint fish town in Michigan with tugboats, wooden shingles, and bicycles to share. Hmm...

My summer freckles are starting to sprinkle across my nose. It's a little bit exciting.

Bloggers, I have been a little bit consumed with flickr. You have the right to hate, but I'm going to cheat and export my flickr posts to here. Hope you enjoy them no matter what! :) xo

Family Portraits

Sorry I haven't been blogging lately...I know it's a lame excuse but school sucked me in. But, GREAT NEWS! ...Summer has arrived including all the Tequesta, sunshine, ocean and lovely goodness! Soo...more pics to come (hopefully)!

Fortune

It's her (my lovely sis') birthday today! I love her more than words. Yay to 22 years of her spreading this beautiful smile!!
