Traveling to…Mt. Lemmon

January 10, 2013 · 1 Comment

IMG_6182This past weekend I made my first trip to the Arizona mountains and saw snow on the West Coast for the first time, and of all places…Tucson. Who would’ve thought. Brittany and I just couldn’t let a gorgeous sunny winter day go to waste. We watched as the crowds of families enjoyed their day sledding, skiing and building snowmen, as we simply felt the comfort of being in this snowy scenery. To us it was memories, and smiles of being little girls doing to same thing every winter just right outside our front door. A day traveling to new sites, with great company and my camera in hand was the perfect way to start my year.

In a matter of minutes, we overlooked Tucson and began to see the first signs of pine trees and mountains. The things that reminded of so much of home. IMG_6034 IMG_6040IMG_6070 IMG_6048

Our signature drink Bloody Mary’s made with cucumber vodka at the Sawmill Run Restaurant, which I enjoyed alongside a bowl of hearty vegetable soup and grilled veggies.

What a perfect little winter escape in the mountains..who wouldn’t want that!IMG_6189IMG_6134 IMG_6190 IMG_6154IMG_6219

We felt like younger versions of ourselves playing in the snow. In the words of Brittany, “Arizona snow tastes just like home”. I guess you’re never to far if you always have something around to remind you of all the memories you left back home on the East Coast. IMG_6181 IMG_6158 IMG_6174 IMG_6178

The beauty of Arizona to me are the distinctly shaped rocks, and how everyday the mountains look so different. IMG_6191

I’ve never been one to connect with the color pu I’ve never been one to connect with the color purple much, & yes I believe everyone connects to colors in certain ways. And yet, Clematis are some of my favorite flowers🌿

For a brief few Spring days each year, the garden is a vision of purples....deep rich violets that almost look black, their sheen like velvet, delicate lavenders & pretty mauves that flutter in the breeze. Nature is a true delight for the soul🤍

They’re calling for a too hot, too soon kind of weekend, but we’ll be surrounded w. love celebrating a special wedding at a lovely location! Hope this weekend brings you moments of rest & joy, that allow you to look at all that is blooming🌱…
tiny joyous things🌿 ... I try not to lose sight tiny joyous things🌿 ... I try not to lose sight of the fact I get to create & "work" w. beautiful flowers; one of the things I love so much & one of the joyful parts of creating & sharing my work w. others. But this whole social media thing is weird right, the world is weird & broken right now -- as creatives seems like are new age question is "do I post this pretty picture when this is really happening right now?! but it's also kind of my job to put my work out there for others to see, right?!" ... but I’m learning, funny enough, by some inspiring women on this platform, it's ok to feel all these things while also sharing the joyous, cool & helpful things we are all working on, creating & hoping to bring into this world. Life is filled w. beautiful & sad moments, happiness, joy, grief, fear, doubt, love. All the tiny things🤍

& if anyone watched last night's This is Us, how beautiful was their telling of one's final moments, looking back at life. Ugh my heart😢
There’s one word to describe the first full even There’s one word to describe the first full event of the season…ethereal🤍

Event season is in full swing & it’s nice to finally step aside from planning to bring all the ideas, time & details to life!
“We are like {blossoms}; holding on, letting go, “We are like {blossoms}; holding on, letting go, rising & falling into our weathered souls…” - Angie Weiland-Crosby🌼

May is the start of a busy few months of events, so I’m going to make sure I prioritize Rest whenever I can. But also plenty of garden days, living & cherishing simple moments — because when the busy days will feel like a blur or the state of the world (big/small) only adds to the mental drain, I know these will be the things that keep me going🤍
