so many things

burgundy flavoured cherries

& lemon scented days


sharing...caring


& a winter wonderland


with glittering white


& snowflakes that sparkle,


& a red rose for you

This week has been moving houses & preparing for a special holiday!!!

moments to write about

Somedays are worth writing about...
Today is standing still in a cool breeze,
hurrying to the post office,
a green leafy tree with one pink flower-oh so high up,
humming while cleaning,
typing away,
& anticipating this!
sending lovely thoughts to you!!!

the "dawn princess"

the thouroughfare of mankind...


all aglitter,


the sun ablaze


sending its last pink beams into the atmosphere(taken from the backseat window as we crossed the bridge)


feeling anchored


searching upwards


dreaming of distant horizons


standing here


witnessing amazing things


Today we saw the Dawn Princess leave port, a tiny tugboat pushed it free, twas a spectacular sight to behold!

~ Silent night!

And Santa whispered, "Teach the children the true meaning of Christmas…"


•The Star: A heavenly sign of prophecy fulfilled long, long ago- The shining hope of mankind.


•The Color Red: The first color of Christmas, symbolizing the Savior's sacrifice for all.


•The Fir Tree: Evergreen- the second color of Christmas shows everlasting light and life. The needles point up to heaven.


•The Bell: Rings out to guide lost sheep back to the fold, signifying that all are precious in His eyes.


•The Candle: A mirror of starlight, reflecting our thanks for the star of Bethlehem.



•The Gift Bow: Tied as we should all be tied together in bonds of goodwill forever.


The Candy Cane: Represents the shape of the shepherd's crook, used to bring lost lambs back to the fold.


•.The Wreath: A symbol of the never ending eternal value of love… having no end

Today is a special day...

true meaning of Christmas from here

sometimes flowers sing!

summer days filled with a snow-white light




a tendency to float up
being encompassed by light



the reverberations of the soul!!!
Today is

Mosaic Monday...

Bringing Christmas Cheer
& a poultice for our hearts


in a sparkling season, hopefulness all array;
glittering merriment
& discovering the joy of giving


Today is Summer's eve & the beauty of the coming season...

something wonderful!~

picnics on the lawn,


a chair by the stairs,


a gleaming kitchen


& a snuggle-up room


a floral couch


& a fountain of light


i could live here!!!{a house full of Spring air & fairytale shine, abounding in muted palettes & twinkling possibility} a happily ever ending...

on that which moves me ~ chandeliers & cheetahs

teardrops suspended in crystal formation


or raining words


& animals remebering


when tears remain...


Today is pure effort!!!
