A photo can say a million things...

I love that when you make a piece of art that is so built with emotion, it can still speak to you years later.  This is how these photos below are for me.  I took them during a very emotional time.  The text that was written on my body says 'Get Me Out Of Here'.  It was a great way to release then, and a great way to release now a few years later just by looking upon them again.  Today has been a day I do not want to relive.  I am not going into any details here on my blog b/c Ive already been there and done that, and quite frankly Im not up for it again.  So in my own little way, this is me venting through a photo.  And... this makes me miss doing these photoshoots. 


Time to hit the relax button b/c Ive been on high nerves all day long.

PEACE,

Days gone by...

For the most part, this week has been a low down week.  Ive been back and forth between working and major procrastination each day.  I did manage to get some happy shots with my phone throughout the week though.  Including little Nico, our lovebird.  One of my readers asked to see him since posting about my new little bottles with his feathers in them, so here he is!  He is our music box throughout the day.  He is rather cute and funny, and loves to have makeout sessions with his mirror. 


James made me yummy coffee while I was working.  He gets so cute when he comes up with a new way to make his lattes.  I think its funny b/c I used to work at a coffee shop, but he makes the most amazing coffees in this house.  I dont even touch the espresso machine anymore, I leave it up to him.  I love how he gets so excited about it. 

Still giving Violet lots of smooches.  I keep trying to capture her dance she does after going to the bathroom outside, it is so hilarious.  I think the last few days she has been a bit down herself.  She has been sleeping alot more and going to the bathroom alot less.  Im keeping my eye on her all day long though.  I can only imagine what is going on inside her little body is very uncomfortable.

On our way to run errands the other day.  I love wearing my skyline fever butterfly top, its just one of my favorites.  I wish we could afford to buy a bunch of new stuff for his shop.  One day... He has the cutest new design, which you can see a slight peek of on his shirt below, cant wait to release it. 

We went to one of Jame's co-workers houses for a bbq the other day.  It was a nice time and Im glad we went.  The sky was amazing on the way home, and I was equally impressed that my little phone camera captured it so wonderfully!

My new favorite thing to eat right now is roasted corn, red bell peppers and avocado salad.  I took some better photos the other day that Ill share later with the recipe.   Such a yummy combo!

And the perfect remedy for not feeling well the other day was a date with myself, the couch, a cookie and John Cusack.  Perfect.  I just adore the little french girl in this flick. 

PEACE,
Laura

Just a little bit of...

 I got completely side tracked this morning when I stumbled across a link for Free People's july catalog.  Im always enamored with the look and feel of their site.  The clothing, the styling and lately, the photography.  I just adore this round of images and the processing they did.  Not mention, I want those bell bottoms like crazy.  I have a pair of real amazing levi's bell bottoms from the 60's, but I cant squeeze my butt into them anymore.  Check out their new little video, and this months catalog.  If anything, its lovely eye candy.


Pretty gawk worthy Id say.  

PEACE,
Laura
