My back porch is just about my favorite place.  I have my coffee on it most mornings, watching the sun peek through through the trees, saying good morning to the frogs that sleep in my potted plants, letting Bella & Violet out to stretch their legs and roll around in the grass, simply greeting the day.  Almost always greeted by winged creatures, usually hummingbirds, cardinals, scrubjays and the occasional woodpecker in the distance.  The sun peeks through the timbers of my teepee and the gypsy garland I made from leftover bell bottom scraps.  It's my favorite time of day.

I come out to my back porch or yard several times a day to stop and stretch, do some yoga, or just leaning over to touch my toes, or throwing my hands up in the air in prayer to the freedom of living in the country after staring into a screen for a bit too long, so thankful I have this sanctuary to walk right into any time I need the silence. 

I love evenings out here too.  All the bugs come out and sing their songs, the frogs wake up from their slumber and hop all over the porch, the stars also come out of slumber. 

I wouldn't trade this space for the city any day.  I love this outfit post b/c it captures my space and the feeling I get in it so well.  xo

One of my favorite times of year is when all the cacti here in Texas start blooming on the sides of the road in and in the fields by the hundreds.  About a month ago was this beautiful time here in the hill country.  I have a few patches in my backyard.  I could of spent hours just photographing their beauty from all angles.  I adore the peachy color the blossoms are right before fully blooming.

The sweet little plum cactus I have on my porch just blossomed too!  I'll share some photos of it soon.  I love taking photos of plants.  I just love plants.  Texas hillcountry landscapes will forever be in my heart.
