Sunkissed

After years of dance and gymnastics ruling our spring breaks, without either we were free to travel this year. We picked the closest drivable shore on the Florida Gulf coast. We drove through the night and arrived at 8:30 am. Then spent a week of nothing but sun and food. It was quite luxurious. To finish our stay, I grabbed some pictures of Lavender on the shore, and got what might possibly be my favorite photo ever. The colors. Her beauty. It just all came together, and quite took my breath away.

Thanks for stopping by.

My Little Wooden Village

I have been collecting little wooden houses since we moved here. An everyday decoration for years, now they just come out for Christmas. They are so sweet and carry such memories of our life lived here. Putting the fairy lights inside give off such a warm glow of love. This year they are up high to keep them safe from the crazy dog, so now I can gaze over from the kitchen and stare at their loveliness!

Are you including your favorite decorations in your December album? Please do tell!

Red Velvet Bows

Velvet bows. Luxury. Warmth. Femininity.  I love everything about them. And having a little velvet bow tree in the corner this year is making my heart happy. 

I bumped up the blues on the plaid paper and futzed with the green star paper until looked about the same. One of my favorite parts of digital!

Eight days til Christmas!

First Snowfall

I was a bit worried when I planned this page because we don't always have snow in December. But this morning when I threw back the drapes, there it was! A light dusting, but cold enough to last all day. I was excited as it gave me a chance to journal about the flower gardens. Not very on season for December, but on point for my current stage of life.

What started as a relatively green and grey page got bits of pink and red added once the flower photo was in. I'm not mad about it. :)

Little Mr. Santa

I wanted the emphasis on this one to be the reds. I switched a few of the colors on the striped paper and then darkened a few of the red elements. No journaling on this one, just the title, which really says it all. :)

I hope you like it!
