Scavenger Hunt Sunday

Filed Under: Photography Tagged With: scavenger hunt sunday

How was your Thanksgiving? Mine was busy but nice. We spent most of the day visiting family. Then we came home and relaxed. Friday we had a great family day just hanging out. We put up our Christmas tree, cleaned a little, then we played in the leaves.

Home or Thankful

I am so thankful for the time Kenny gets to spend with us. A lot of families don’t get to spend time with their spouses on the holidays. You can also see my house in this photo which I am also thankful for!

In the Kitchen

In the kitchen on my window from Shari for the Holly Days Christmas Swap. I also did it for fall and they are so much fun!

Couple

The couple that I photographed their wedding. The signs are from The Teal Sublime. You can enter to win a sign from her shop here. I do have two other giveaways going on too if you want to check them out.

Bubbles

This is from my Archives but it was the perfect bubbles photo. I love her expression and the bubble pop I captured.

Trees

 The trees are gorgeous colors right now. Love the colors at Fall but not all the leaves on the ground.

That is all I have for you today. I hope you have a wonderful day.

Linking up with Scavenger Hunt Sunday, Little Bits of Happiness, A Rural Journal, Simple Things, Sunday Snapshot, Macro Monday, and then she snapped

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
