Enjoyable things from the life of a normal girl.
I’ve always loved the idea of looking at everyday objects and finding inspiration in them. I often find myself looking for interesting textures, patterns and colors that evoke an emotion or response from me. Below is a palette that I recently put together using photos from around my house. I hope you enjoy it!

We’re already half way through August and I finally had a chance to look back at some of the pictures I took during July. I thought I’d piece together some of the good times and create a collage to share with you. As I look back on July I remember all of the fun I had and realize how grateful I am for all of the wonderful friends and family in my life. I also realized just how great the normal life of a normal girl can be.
I hope all of you had a wonderful July and are enjoying your August!
The moon has reset and will soon start to wane. This is your monthly reminder that now is the time to release any bad habits or negative thoughts you might be holding onto. As our view of the moon shrinks, sliver by sliver, let it take that which you wish to release. Allow yourself the freedom to let go. It’s during this lunar phase that the growth of leaves on plants and trees starts to slow, because as the moonlight fades, the plants push their energy down to the their root systems. Focus on strengthening your own roots, the part of you from which everything else grows and flourishes.
The quote on the photo above is from one of my favorite books, The Girl Who Chased The Moon by Sarah Addison Allen. The story is enchanting and always inspires me to go out and chase the moon. I took the above photograph during our full August moon in Orlando, Florida, United States on August 1, 2012 at 9:22 p.m. EST, using my iphone.
