2012. A Look Back.//

From traveling to South Africa, Paris, and Nicaragua, 

to putting on Dashing Emancipation;

2013 has been filled with much accomplishments and adventure.

Of course, there were some storms as well,

but life is a mixture of both at times, eh?

Here is a look back through my twenty-twelve:

Nicaragua

Seattle

Lake Tahoe

Florida

South Africa

Paris

Dashing Emancipation 

Paddle-boarding

Sailing

New York Fashion Week

Last but not least: My 21st! :-)

I also want to take a moment and remember my dear Grandmother who went home to be with Jesus this year, in her 91st year of life.

I miss her so much, and am so honored to have known her as much as I did.

She taught me about life in all it's beauty--the mountain tops & the valleys.

Margaret Shea was a woman of love, compassion, and strength.

[Such a stunner she was.]

Peace. Love. Joy

When aren't the Olsen twins inspiring...

I mean, really?

Let's Get To The Heart Of It.//

"Where sickness thrives,

Bad things follow."

A quote from The Hobbit, of which my dear sister drug me to the theater to see ;)

This quote was in the beginning of the film, and it really struck me--

keeping our hearts in a place of wholeness results in health, joy, peace, and all things good.

Everything flows from the heart.

Definitely one of my favorite spreads from 2012.

Hiatus. Over.

Hello, Friends.

I am back from my long break.

Sometimes, you just need a breather.

I am back and ready for an amazing year ahead of creativity, inspiration, and hope;

all documented here on my blog.

I hope you'll stick around :-)

Peace. Love. Joy.
