As Seen On My Walk

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in my neck of the woods.

I changed up the usual route of my evening walk with Daisy and timed it to take advantage of the Christmas lights in the neighborhood.

This corner is one of my favorites.

And these trees along the median….

sigh…..

All these years we have lived in this neighborhood and this sight never gets old.

This might be my favorite view though.

Walking up to my house. Coming home to our living room all aglow.

I just love this time of year.

    It’s lovely seeing your neighborhood with the Christmas lights and decorations! I love the moody processing you’ve given the photos to add an ethereal and quiet mood to them, almost feels like snow has fallen.

    Merry Christmas, Kelly, to you and your family!

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!
