10 things...

that I'm loving right now...

old memories
1) Going through an old camera and finding memories stored away, forgotten, from summers past.

2) The deep and emotional photo journey through
this artists time spent with his father. It's both inspirational and heartbreaking.

3) The fact that I'm a featured blogger today at Halftime Lessons for Mission: Monday. A fun site with a quippy writer (although PG-13) and a great prize giveaway today... all good things.  Click over there and enter to win!

4) A current project by the authors of
A Year of Mornings. Two friends, 3191 miles apart, posting a photo each evening. It's amazing to watch the wonderful sameness appear in so many of their 'Year of Evenings' photos.

my present
5) Planning our upcoming (well just over 4 months away) five-year anniversary trip... and the Christmas present to wear, with a promise of a secluded tropical beach location.

6) Though Christmas is already a few days past, I still love the
August Burns Red rendition of Carol of the Bells.  It moves me.

camera love
7) The love of all things camera - inherited, no doubt, from her camera loving mommy and daddy.

8) The celebration that awaits us all this week with the coming new year, and the knowledge that I'll be joined by my best friend, my Christopher.

winter
9) All of the outdoor play, snow days and photos we captured before the unseasonably warm weather melted it away into the brown wetness that is our current winter.

10) The way my sweet Baby Blue loves to sing songs to me over the phone... it seems to comfort her own self as a smile, filled with longing, covers my face.

  9. I'm loving the sunshine. Even though it doesn't really 'feel' like winter here yet, and my family in Seattle is having our winter and vice versa, I'm loving how bright and sunny it is with the birds flitting about and chirping up a storm. I'm loving the quietness of the morning before my Little Princess wakes up. And I'm loving your blog! ;)

  13. The green of the grass in the first picture is amazing and makes me wish I could see something similar in colour when I looked out my window right now, but no such luck. White, white, and white with a hint of gray.

    Love your list of loves. What am I loving right now? The babbling of my kids. I love getting my ears "talked" off by them.

    Hope you have a marvelous Monday!

  27. I am loving that I happened upon your blog from Mission Monday and instead of feeling intimidated by your breathtaking photographs, I am feeling inspired. Maybe also because the New Year is ahead filled with time to recreate myself, to reach outside my comfort zone and try new things....

    I will be back for more doses of beauty and inspiration.

    Happy New Year.

  35. I'm so happy Jay directed me your way!
    I've recently found some old film and had it developed. What an amazing find! It's like a piece of our history that I forgot.
    This roll of film is my favorite thing right now.

  39. I am loving being with 5 grandbabies at the same time, listening to them talk, watching them learn to 'get along', enjoying their discoveries.

    I am loving that it was 70 degrees here today, so we could go to the park and play.

    I love that tomorrow we will do the tree together, that my dad and my great uncle and his lady friend will join us, that he will play his harmonica, that all my kids will be together, and all the grandkids again.

    I am enjoying the fact that I am getting ready to fall into bed and rest my weary bones in preparation for another busy day tomorrow.

    I love your pictures. The one of the snow and the red berries was absolutely delightful. So refreshing.

  40. i love that my niece actually recognizes me now, and that she smiles when she sees me. melts my little heart into a puddle of mush in my shoes.
