taking in the sunrise on the porch with our coffee, IN MY ROBE! something i could never do in town. such a refreshing change of pace. before i would wake up in my dark little house, make my coffee and go straight to emails. not anymore! and now that Bella can go outside anytime she wants... me, violet & bella all get to hang out together in peace.

Im slowly fixing up the outside. james parents were so sweet to bring us two hanging baskets of the prettiest flowers. i took some really lovely photos of them the other day. and we brought over all of our gardening pots and accessories. although it wont be until next season that i can garden. but its comforting to have all of my momma's things on my porch.

and yep, thats me first thing in the morning! and dont you just love the way the sunlight comes through the trees?
