three reasons I love my tutt...

1. he has an insane amount of optimism and constantly reminds me to believe and trust.
2. he can always make me laugh... even when I don't want to.
3. he has a great ass.... it's true he does.


we spent the 13th day of the year together wandering San Francisco, with no plan. Just enjoying each other. It was perfection.
I had planned on taking picture all day,being super creative and pushing myself, instead I took 4.
I couldn't, I craved his hand in mine.

these are the four I took...




this artist is Ruth Asawa, I LOVE these. they through the coolest shadows on the wall, art pieces in themselves. Took my breath away. Thank you Ruth.


This piece was done by Arthur Frank Mathews, it is called "Song of the Sea (The Three Graces) i love it.


(I know that I did not do those works justice at all, but I wanted to share them with you.)

nine years with my hubby, nine amazing, crazy beautiful years. we have both failed miserably and conquered triumphantly, we have both held it together while ripping it all to shreds. we have created life together, two amazing truly breathtaking lives together. we have loved, cursed, danced, cried, fought, healed, kissed and laughed together. all together. always together.

peace.

three reasons I loved 2009...

1. I moved to place and home that I love.
2. I feel like this has been the best year of work thus far... which feels pretty rad.
3. I learned a ton, by messing up, succeeding, tripping and climbing. I love to learn even if it is painful sometimes.






I am looking forward to what 2010 has in store for us all. I feel good about this year, I feel hopeful and full of life.

peace.

three reasons I love Travis & Veronica...

1. Veronica is to me a sister. She has been a little sis for years, she has come and gone in my life over and over again. We have healed each other and been in trouble together and I cannot imagine my life without her.

2. Travis is her knight in shinning armor. He scooped her up, took her hand and walks with her through life.

3. They through a dam good party... which I took very few pictures of because I got to partake in instead of work. ;0)






















Veronica and Travis thank you. I love you and look forward to watching you grow together.

peace.
