    So pretty! I love that candy-red color of the tulips. Loved all of the images of these flowers on the other site too! Nothing like flowers to chase away the winter blahs.

    Gorgeous! I don’t buy myself flowers often enough but you’re right – you can’t beat the happiness they bring.

    Beautiful! My New Year’s Resolution was to have fresh flowers on my table every day. So, once a week I buy a bouquet (or at least until my garden comes back to life). I usually buy the cheapest bouquet, they seem to last the longest!

    The light grazing the edges of the tulips is beautiful. I love how they bend down. Lovely.

    I love tulips and how they curve, and how they catch the light. These are simply stunning!

    So pretty. I caught your series on Focus on Life too, lovely photos. Flowers are wonderful but I rarely get them because no place is safe from our cats getting to them and either eating them or knocking the vase over and spilling water everywhere.

About Me

Hi There! I’m Kelly. I am a wife, mom, light seeker, homemaker, and storyteller. From an empty nest to an abundant life, all it took was a little time, a lot of faith, and the courage to see my life differently.

You can read more about my story here.

So now, armed with my trusty Canon camera, here is where I share my journey to live an inspired and intentional life.

Welcome to my little corner of the interwebs!
