Things changing and staying the same

January 15, 2013

This past week I took a little break and went to Austin. It had been about 6 months since I moved and I have been missing my friends and familiar places and of course the Texas sun. It gave me a little bit of time to reflect on change. The changes that have taken place in my life in the last few months and the changes that are ahead for me. With so much uncertainty it is nice for me to see a few things that have stayed just the same.

{My best friend currently lives in Walker’s old apartment-which I mentioned a while back-and there are still a few things just as Walker left them. She might be embarrassed by that fact but to her credit she is barely there and when Walker moved out and we moved in it was pretty hectic and not everything was sorted out. It was nice to walk around the apartment and remember little moments.}

I’ll be sharing a bit more of my trip later this week.

 

 

Birthday treats from my mom

January 11, 2013

My mom mailed me a few lovely birthday gifts. I love them all!

I have been wanting this print for a while now and I’m super excited to hang it up in our place.

I also requested a more winter red and I’m working on a little project involving the lipstick which will be explained in due time.

Finally I mentioned a sample of Just Kissed by Jane Iredale in this post and I’m so excited to have a larger version. I just love it!

Thank you mom! I love you!
