home again

I have been home for about a month, but today was one of the first days I was able to get out of my small neighborhood and venture into our small city for some adventuring. along the way I found some absolute gems. a local artist painted phrases on almost every bridge we saw. it was a delight to my heart and made me so happy to be out and about.
I would like to imagine that this (once construction is finished) would be a wonderful place to picnic.
what a sweet sentiment.
now that we are here, nowhere else matters.

I hope these sweet slogans brighten your day as they did mine.

life lately

I know that posts on here as of late have been mostly photos. sorry about that. the truth is, these last few weeks have been pretty quiet for me. I am thankful for that. before this month I was dealing with a lot of stress and unnecessary craziness in my life. these days I am so happy to have quiet mornings, soothing devotionals, a sweet family, and wonderful friends. it has seriously been the recharge I have needed, and best of all, I got a job! wonderful as this time off has been, it will be so nice to have a regular schedule once again. busy, full days are the happiest days. I am a seriously thankful person.


how happy I was when I got the barista job I had been hoping for // new favorite iced coffee: 3 pumps hazelnut & 2 pumps mocha. thanks susan. // key lime pie made for mama.


raspberry, lemon, basil water // morning devotion that was so encouraging // a well deserved breakfast made for my sweet mama.


and the two highlights of my week: seeing my favorite baby boy dylan // taking pictures with bella at her prom. so happy to watch her grow up!

how have your weeks been? anything super special coming up?
xo, siobhan
