bringing in the tree
With each and every walk in our woods, I feel as though we are making a layer of memories of place. These new memories are laid upon other layers (and layers upon layers) from the past, which we can only dream about and imagine, for they are not ours to remember. They b...
Gorgeous collaboration Amanda! A wonderful quote, presented beautifully.
The First Day
It's funny reading your own words in print. To be honest, I really don't do it. Once my 'work' for a book is done, I don't look at it again. The books pass through my hands as I hand them out, mail them out, give them out, and I glance with half-closed eyes at it all. It's equal parts perfecti...

{this moment}
{this moment} - A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see. . . . . ...

december favorites

Thank you for this lovely and inspiring post. Just reading it gave me a sense of calm today. I have several of the links tabbed open for later reading. And gosh, I have vase envy right now.
pause & notice
It's truly December now, isn't it? Our Nutcracker season ended just last night, with our energy now shifting towards fully soaking in and loving up this time of holiday goodness. Trying to move slowly and gracefully through these fast-moving days, I find myself - as often as I can re...
I'm just loving this post! I want to get some greenery up ASAP now. Your table is gorgeous. The ideas your children are always coming up with are inspiring to adults too. I just love the hat atop that tree. So funny! Seriously, this post lifted my mood.
beginnings
I took a walk around the woods of our house yesterday, with baby on back and clippers in hand, and boys running all around me. I just wanted to see what I could find. Where were those red berries again? That's right...by the rock wall in the back pasture. I clipped some things, and we talk...
