In My Bag : Being : Missing

Yesterday, I was needing business cards, but they were missing so I added them in my bag. I love being one of the contributors for www.Viewfinders.io and my most recent post is up today! I'd love it if you visited! #viewfindersio #AugustBreak2015 #thesummermiracle #summerslowdown2015 #thehereco #day28

Door : Almost : Freedom If we leave any door almost open, Jack the Cat will use his nose or paws to push it open wider. I'm not sure he's actually that interested in gaining freedom. He's got a pretty good setup being an indoor kitty. #summerslowdown2015 #thesummermiracle #AugustBreak2015 #thehereco #day26 #jackthecat

This has been my talisman since a retreat many years ago. It's been used as a necklace, a subject of photos, a teaching tool and an object to hold in my hands when things felt shaky. It was given anonymously to all the retreat goers and one piece of juicy gossip? I know who gave them out... #Augustbreak2015 #thesummermiracle #summerslowdown2015 #thehereco

Favorite Recipe : Caring : Create One of my favorite recipes is for Ms. Good Cookies that somehow got it's name from the creative linguistics of my older brother at a young age. It's also something that my mom still makes for us when she thinks we need a little bit of caring for. Because really - when are we ever too old for a little caring for? :) #thesummermiracle #AugustBreak2015 #summerslowdown2015 #thehereco #day27

I'm giving myself a little rest for #thesummermiracle. It's hard though, when my thoughts keep racing with all things I should be doing. I'm trying to allow myself some grace for #summerslowdown2015 and make some lists in my notebook to quiet my mind for #augustbreak2015. #thehereco

5 Facts:

Delight : Green : Tender This ivy creeps into my planting beds and although it's not part of the planned landscape, I still delight in it's tender, green curlicues. #summerslowdown2015 #thesummermiracle #AugustBreak2015 #thehereco #day25

We snuck out of the house early in the morning on our last day to catch the sunrise over the water. There was a gentle breeze and I love how it made the light ripple in the reflection. #AugustBreak2015 #thesummermiracle #summerslowdown2015 #thehereco #day23

Exactly one year ago, we were at the #biscuitpaintwall in Houston, and my little beauty didn't want to sit next to the wall for pictures, because she was scared of bugs. What an amazing coincidence that I was able to go back in my archives and STILL get a shot that includes the 3 prompts. I am one fortunate soul - and this truly is a summer miracle. #AugustBreak2015 #thesummermiracle #summerslowdown2015 #thehereco

These 3 can *sometimes* be friends. This morning, they were watching cartoons together in the golden yellow light that shines through our east facing windows. #Augustbreak2015 , #thesummermiracle , #summerslowdown2015 , #thehereco

I'm in denial that I'm not still looking at this view, so for today's prompts I'm playing some classical guitar songs on Pandora and enjoying the calm after the first day of school while staring into the distance through my photographs. #Augustbreak2015 #thesummermiracle #summerslowdown2015 #thehereco

The curves of the tube, the first time the 4 of them rode together, the smiles that they all had on their faces for the rest of the day.

I looked out my window at just the right time to catch these two graceful bodies hanging out on the side of the house. #thesummermiracle #AugustBreak2015 #summerslowdown2015 #thehereco

The silk on her dress was so smooth, the blooms she carried were stunning. I don't do weddings, but this was a vow renewal, so that's what's different for me today. For #Augustbreak2015 #summerslowdown2015 and #thesummermiracle

We were inspired to play with bubbles for #thesummermiracle prompt. It was a great excuse to teach the kids about surface tension and how to make your own bubble juice for BIG bubbles. I caught the edge of a bubble mid-burst for the #AugustBreak2015 prompt. The outcome? Lots of smiles, giggles and pictures for all. #summerslowdown2015 #thehereco

I exist with the earth and the light. Last minute interpretation to combine the prompts for #Augustbreak2015 , #thesummermiracle and #summerslowdown2015. Good night folks. #thehereco

Horizon : Smile : Routine - Sometimes it's good to get out of my routine and drive a different route. I smiled as I saw all the puffy clouds on the horizon. #thesummermiracle #AugustBreak2015 #summerslowdown2015 #thehereco #day30
