my month of mornings

i’ve never really been a morning person…but recently i started taking pictures in the mornings instead of in the evenings.  i’m sharing the whole story with my friends at focusing on life today if you’d like to read all about it.

basically it started out as was a way to kill a few birds with one stone.  but as a result, i’m learning to see mornings in a whole new light.  mission accomplished.

    Beautiful, Kelly! I’m a morning person, but for some reason I don’t pick up the camera very often in the mornings. I must remedy that!! Excellent post over at FOL!

    Gorgeous! The way the light in my house is, in the winter the window of opportunity for good light isn’t very long.

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!
