like we have for the past few januarys, tripp and i have taken a little weekend road trip. this year we drove over to northern arkansas and stayed at a cabin overlooking beaver lake.

this year we mixed it up a little and took the furbabies.  as good as it was for us to get away…i think it was good for them too.  nothing like fresh air and sunshine to clean out the cobwebs so to speak.

keep close to nature’s heart… and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. wash your spirit clean. ~john muir

    First I read “Alaska” because I’m slow waking up this morning and thought, whoa, they are serious drivers! Ha. So good to get away, huh? Lovely to see what you saw. Welcome home, Kelly.

    I thought I recognized Eureka Springs! I love that town—it’s insane when our local biker rally hits the area, but it’s such a cool little place! Glad you all had a good 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!
