10 things


  1. My lilac, which had a traumatic replanting last spring, is thriving and blooming more than it ever has in its entire life. Yes, I realize this statement makes me a garden nerd, but I don't care. There is no better way to wake up than the scent of lilac flowers drifting through my window.
  2. I've worn only flip-flops for the last few days. This is enough to make me absolutely giddy.
  3. Porch time is back with a vengence. Good gracious it's good to be back out there. Reading, writing, thinking, dreaming.
  4. Very thankful for a week of getting lots of things accomplished. I don't even want to think about the insanity that is the month of May. Denial is survival.
  5. Can't stop watching The Vampire Diaries. Season 2 is taunting me like crazy. There are 3 episodes on my DVR that can't be watched because I haven't seen the 16 before them. Grrrrr....argh. Forced to re-watch (over and over) season 1. Totally obsessed at the moment.
  6. Finished I am Number Four. So disappointed. Another great idea that was so poorly executed. So poorly. The entire way through.
  7. Been painting and crafting and dreaming up some new projects. That always feels good.
  8. Have had the same Netflix for over 2 weeks now. Why is it so hard to make myself watch a movie? Why?
  9. Need to do a photography love-fest blog. So many favorite photographers that take so many beautiful photos that inspire me. Always dreaming about doing a workshop with one of them.
  10. On repeat, repeat, repeat:

Well, I think you may have inspired me to do a 10 things post. Also, I'm very much looking forward to all of your summer blogs and living vicariously through you and your camp life! I don't think I tell you enough how sweet and inspiring your blog is.

Thanks, friend! I think the same thing about your adorable blog. Can't wait to see more posts and photos of your wedding! And if you get too hot down there this summer, come up for a visit....not that it will be much cooler up here, but we'll have boat rides and ton of happy, screaming children. That makes everything better. xoxo
