Spooky

I love how the light shines through our window around this time of day. It's currently 4:45pm, and there is this golden glow that peeks through the trees right off our balcony. I try to take time to appreciate the little things in this world that are so beautiful, and usually unnoticed.

We just got back from our trip to Los Angeles on Monday night. It was so special to spend time with my family. I crave these moments because they are so few nowadays. We have so many wonderful things ahead, and I hope that in time we move closer to the people we hold most dear.

Eucalyptus Wreath

So, Jason and I made this little eucalyptus wreath last weekend. Since then it the leaves have dried out, but I still love it so. It is now on our front door, hopefully to send out good vibes to whoever may pass by. Being a mother has changed me so much. I can let things go easier - like taking more time to photograph our latest project. Phoenix has been up a few nights this week, so the three of us are utterly exhausted. But I still want to take a moment and appreciate the quick diy that me and my love did together. We don't have as much time now, so I feel so fortunate for every second that is ours.

Let's snuggle.

Boombox

A thrifted boombox with so many dance time afternoons in our future. We picked up these cassettes last night at Half Price Books. I could blame Stranger Things for this. :)

Lego Bricks

A few years ago, before Phoenix came along, I saw these lego storage bricks. I have a handful of things that I have had my eye on for him since he was just a dream for our future. We get these things little by little, and I am so grateful to make these ideas a reality with him.

Energizer Bunny

The first Halloween costume I remember is when I dressed up as the Energizer Bunny. It's such an interesting feeling now as a parent, because from now on and the many years to come I will be helping Phoenix make those same important memories. Being his mama is such a gift, and I'm so excited to spend his second Halloween dressed up and celebrating!
