Monday Moments Of Me #196

Most of you do not know this but I have been a "lunch lady" for 2 years now.
I am sad to say it has come to an end as it has become too time consuming. Too hard to juggle it all :( These 2 ladies in the picture became my great friends! I will miss them but I will be darn sure to still make a point to hang out!
Now, on to more photo sessions and more time for family!!!!! Especially this time of year. I can not wait! Woot!

Monday Moments Of Me #195

Did anyone else go to Cavalia when it was in town?!
Oh my goodness, I was completely blown away by the animals and the trainers and the performers and all the hard work and dedication that goes into setting up the tent and the sand and the water. Just everything!!! I loved it so much I went twice hehe. Second time I took my parents and my husbands mom :)
Magical...

Always always let your mind create and be free, it is ok to think and do stuff outside "the box"

This butterfly was ready for its photo! Stood still and silent for me...it was a beautiful morning walk with my dog and this gorgeous creature on our path made it 100% better :)
Even its shadow has me smiling!

Monday Moments Of Me #192

It has been a bit rainy here and there in the Gilbert, AZ area lately and here is a quick phone image right after a quick drizzle while on an afternoon walk with my dog :)
Colors so vibrant, soaking up the much needed drink; this plant needs to know how happy it made me!!!

Monday Moments Of Me #191

Double hearts!
When seeing one heart is not enough.....
The reminder that two is better than one was something I needed to see :)

Yes, alone time and space is sometimes good for the soul but....it is always refreshing and comforting to have a partner, loved one or a friend nearby, knowing they are there for you and have you in mind to share the best and worst of times.

Just like these hearts are not perfectly shaped; neither are we. We all have quirks and are weird. Right? Lets just be honest haha.
The amazing thing is that that is what makes life so interesting and fun and challenging and fulfilling.
The layers, the colors, the textures, the scars...they all tell a story and we never know how ours can help someone :)

Monday Moments Of Me #189

I have about 2 more months of "Micah's 2018 Year Of The Heart" which I have absolutely loved. It is amazing how many I randomly see all over at work, at home, on walks etc.

While typing this post I can remember the exact place and time I saw this heart leaf.....

Friends, remember to love one another and be kind.
A quote has been on my mind lately and the gist of it is just to be nice to everyone and do not judge because we do not know the battles they are going through.

Sometime life is grand and nothing can stop us and sometimes in life we need a little pick me up to survive the day or even the moment...

Be Kind :)
