paper forest

I decided to do too much this week. I started reading deprivation to try and hear what I have to say; which also includes any kind of media like magazines, pamphlets, movies, and television. I just want some silence. It's uncomfortable, (because, really, what do I have to say?) and really hard, but I hope it will be worth it.

I also convinced Adam to do a cleanse. We can only eat brown rice, steamed greens, and the slightly gross detox liquid. My taste buds are definitely protesting.

So what does one do when one cannot watch a movie, read a book, or even bake? I decided to create a paper forest above our doorway!

I like how messy it is.


On a completely unrelated note; Adam found a decapitated teddy bear head on a walk the other day.

there is a green hill far away

Adam and I want to run away here:

(New Zealand)
And I think we just might. Soon.

Today I became obsessed with this:

I've always hated popcorn but someone gave us a popcorn machine as a wedding present and wow! Fresh, buttery, nacho cheese flavored popcorn is incredible!


yum!

Happy November!

Want to see some honeymoon pictures??
The actual wedding ones are still being refined and worked on so more to of those to come.

It's a new month! And it's my goal to blog more. And read more. And write more. I have a new life! I need to make it new!

By the way, I have the most fantastic husband.

After everything that could go wrong DID....

We're married! And greetings from Paris; where the croissants melt in your mouth, the hotels are super crappy, and sparrows eat out of your hands! I'm happy beyond belief and can't wait to start this most incredible, hard, rewarding journey! More pictures from Germany and Spain soon!

that's not why ships were built

So everything is about done and I'm trying to enjoy myself (thanks bright light!) and wanted to blog. I couldn't really think of anything interesting but i came across this photo and it made me laugh. How often do we all try so hard to be original and new and nothing comes out? The Artists Way (more about this incredible book in a later, longer post) is teaching me that everything is original! I am original! It's beautiful.

I just liked this photo because it's fall! I plan on going up into the painted mountains today. Hooray for autumn!

Summer before Senior year in highschool two of my girl friends and I decided to live in my white, ex-cop car lumina for a week. We called it our "hippie week". We slept in it and ate in it and actually it was a blast. We took a ton of pictures but they've been lost over the years. This is the only one I still have. It was a good summer.

the fortune says: "A ship in harbor is safe. But that's not why ships are built" What words! It feels like fire under my feet and I am running to be myself. How true! We must take risks, be afraid, and grow. How beautiful.

too fast

so much, much, much wedding planning! =no blogging time :(

12 days and counting :)

where did the rain go?

I've been neglecting my notebooks. they miss me. i miss them.

I will be grateful will this is all said and done and we can run away to the green hills of ireland. the lights of france. the bathhouses of germany.
