picking blackberries with my dear friend ann.  getting to see her grand-moos.  sunday morning french toast.  father’s day with my two favorite fathers. 

i know that sometimes life can be hard.  frustrating.  worrisome.  but sometimes life can be full and ripe.  sweet and juicy.  just waiting to picked and savored. 

this was one of those weekends.

feeling quite blessed for all of it.

just keeping it real.  Winking smile

happy monday my friends.  xoxo

    I’m obviously working backwards today. Your weekend looks and sounds just perfect … like those blueberries!

    Oh, wow…look at those delicious blackberries! There’s a few wild vines around here that I get to pick a few berries off…that is if I can beat the birds to them! I love blackberry cobbler, it’s my all time favorite cobbler! Fantastic weekend!

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!
