Happy Holidays!!

This is a belated entry, I know, but here are some highlights from our festive holidays.
A Christmas week trip to the city library...




Sitting and playing by Christmas trees





Handmade children's cards
Made by our six year old... :)



A few Christmas morning moments...

Christmas morning, white and red



Opening presents on Christmas Day...
my favourite series of the morning included these of our little one
opening her very own special box of stationery and art supplies.



The scissors were an instant favourite!

Summer solstice

and magic light

Happy summer solstice! x

Just wanted to share a little bit of our magic evening before the sun set on the longest day, and this is how she prefers to walk about wearing her hats now... non-seeing :)

Technically incorrect image but beloved anyway



More summertime...

~ lavender evening ~

It's nearly Summer and sort of almost Christmas and we have little lavender gift plans.
We went out last night before sunset and picked some lavender to tie and dry over the coming weeks. xo





in-between the lavender and the buttercup grass...

ladybird hair ribbons, birthday eve light on a sweet second birthday

birthday gifts,
ladybird hair ribbons ♥
on the evening of a second birthday
nearly sunset

i just loved how the light of the setting sun shone through the ribbons here...



And not too bad evening light the next night too :)

Sweet, evening light
playing in the countryside
white cotton shirt,
or navy blue vintage dress
and favourite yellow rainboots

Spring is like a perhaps hand (which comes carefully out of Nowhere) arranging a window, into which people look (while people stare... e e cummings

Spring is here!! :D
Hurrah for cherry blossom, daisies, and bare feet outdoors! This week has been completely different from last week, and absolutely gorgeous. xo



Yes!

nature babies

In the garden

Rare Winter's evening sunshine, floral dress top

A brief spot of lavender sunshine after endless rain

I love clothing details, and sweet baby arms

some afternoon candids

little apple tree

gathering apples in Autumn:)





After she picks them she wants to put them back :)





Apple trees tickle, don't you know?

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

I let my little one read and play with my Alice book. She loved it. :)
















These images are from an impromptu mini session while trying out my lensbaby. A dreamy almost toy lens, it is so much fun to use! :)
