365 Project: Day 7
I wish every day was like this: sundresses, comfy, freshly-made beds, pink toenails, sunny days and new library books.

Rollin' On a River
This is a new print available in my Etsy shop. I love how the Polaroid captured this river. It looks so peaceful flowing through the hills.

I spend a lot of time sitting on this porch. And yes, I am a Cowboys fan. Texas girl all the way!

Day 4:
These are my favorite boots. P.S. I have big plans for re-covering this awesome chair that my sister and I found on the side of the road.

Canadian House and Home Magazine
I was so excited when Trina from Decor Addict emailed me to let me know that my "On the Boardwalk" greeting cards were featured on the Canadian House & Home Magazine blog! I was literally jumping up and down.
Thank you so much for including me Trish, and thank you Trina for sending me that email! It made my whole day.

365 Project: Day 2
This is the first thing I do every morning. Get up, turn on iTunes, make coffee, check email, re-list items in my Etsy shop, Facebook...I am parked at this desk for a good part of my day.

365 versions of myself
Sometimes I think that there might actually be this many different parts of me. Somehow they all fit together to form this one person. So I am going to attempt to capture myself in as many different ways as possible over the next year of my life. Yes, I have finally made up my mind to tackle the 365 project.
I have been thinking about taking this on for a while now and I just couldn't find the motivation to get started. Just thinking about the task at hand already has me feeling overwhelmed. But I am going to do it.
I thought I'd start out with a bang and not only take one photo, but a series of photos. I figured what better place to start, but at the beginning...
Day 1: My Insomnia
I, for whatever reason, have not slept a full night in quite a while. My mind wanders. I sit on the porch and watch the stars. I work. I go for a run. I watch movies. I read. I listen to music. I pace. I am completely restless. I'm never in bed earlier than 3 or 4 in the morning and often I don't start to drift off to sleep until the first sign of dawn. By then, of course, its light out and I can't sleep because its so bright. There are nights when I don't sleep at all.
I'll go on like this for days until I eventually crash, usually about 2 or 3 in the afternoon, one day when my body just can't take the exhaustion any more. Then I sleep a couple of hours and start the routine all over again. I broke down and bought a body pillow yesterday. Lets see if that helps.

Up, up and away!
Even though I have lived in New Mexico for about 15 years off and on, this was the first time that I went to the Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque. I was so excited to go! I got up at 4am to watch all of the balloons lift off at dawn. Little did I know that I would be stuck in traffic for 3 hours and have to watch the whole thing from my car! But it was still an amazing site to see and I took a lot of great photographs.
These prints will be available in my Etsy shop very soon.

trying to find the words...
Behind every photograph I take there is always a story, a feeling, a thought, a memory. It amazes me that I can look at a photograph and remember everything about that moment. So, I've decided to share little snippets of these memories with you. Some of my prints are now available with a statement. Just a few little words that mean something to me.
Expressing myself visually has always come naturally and easily, but expressing myself through words has always been difficult. This project has been surprisingly emotional for me. I didn't expect that when I started it, but I'm glad that I can now share these experiences with you.

Summer Daydream
As I walked outside into the first crisp day of Autumn today, I was reminded just how quickly the summer days have passed us by. As a tribute to the end of summer I have added my Summer Daydream print to my Etsy shop.
This summer I:
* Moved back to New Mexico
* Got to spend more time with my family
* Went swimming
* Spent lazy days laying on Crystal Beach listening to the waves
* Got a great tan
* Made SO many amazing new friends
* Went camping
* Added new items to my Etsy shop
* Took tons of new pictures
* Went to Las Vegas for the first time and had a blast!
* Rediscovered my love for the desert
* Smiled and laughed more than I have in a long time
Au revoir Summer. Until next year.
