Getting Away

A recent ritual we've developed is getting away to spend time at home in the forest...

A recent ritual we've developed is getting away to spend time at home in the forest.  It feels so much different than being in the city.  The sound in the forest is so soft  ... hearing the birds chirp and the wood peckers knocking  ... the strongest roar being the wind blowing through the trees.

Winter is coming here in California and it's beginning to get chilly.  It's such a nice time of year to walk the woods or browse around the garden ... sipping a warm cup of tea or morning coffee ... taking a minute to sit down for some inspirational reading.  The misty fog in the mornings is my favorite ... it closes off the distance and makes things even more quiet and calming.

Here are some photos from our recent little shoot.  Hope you enjoy the inspiration ... ;)

My Little Corner

We were away over the passed weekend for the anniversary of when we first met...

We were away over the passed weekend for the anniversary of when we first met.  Off to the Lake with a wonderful creative bunch of peeps full of smiles and wonderful spirits.  It's always an inspiring event with many moments that I never want to end ... ;)  It's so nice to be in a place where you can really unplug from the internet ... turn off the cell phone and all the other distractions that typically consume us in everyday life.  Time seems to slow a bit and days are a little more full then normal.  It really makes you focus on being in the moment ... appreciating the simple pleasures that are often overlooked and right around us.  

Playing a little catch up from being away and getting back on track to the regular schedule, we spent our time recently doing some clean up around the house ... focusing on the simple pleasure of a clean home ... ;)

We use to have our dining table in this corner, but recently moved it closer to the window.  It's so interesting how that simple move changes the feel of the entire room ... It has since become my new fav corner of the house.  

Do you have a favorite corner in your house?  I think I have a few ... 

Hope you Enjoy!

I have been looking for a fun storage spot for our pillows and blanket and fell in love with this Ferm Living Wire Basket. They come in a few color options and are very strong and versatile.  I was thinking to cut a wooden cover for the top turning it into a table too.
