  3. seeing the guy out of the corner of my eye before he ran the red light at my intersection.
  4. the sweet smile from the girl at the deli counter.
  5. a kick-ass directional well profile at work
  6. pansies that i thought were long gone, perking up after a few warm days.
  7. my girl’s car in the driveway when i got home.
  8. starbucks and a walk through the Gap after dinner.

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!
