Just a thought

Just a thought on a busy Tuesday. Enjoy this gorgeous day! xx.

Enthralled

With the romance and beauty of the Royal Wedding. Kate looks stunning. I'll leave you with this quote, have a wonderful weekend.  Also, my thoughts go out to all of you affected by the tragic storms and tornados down south. xx.

I'm doing anything I can to mentally escape this frigid winter and the five feet of snow outside my window. I thought I would share some random pink prettiness.

- I love everything about this photo of Jackie O. - The color scheme is very close to my daughter's room. {which I'm slowly finishing}  I also love the quality of light in this image.

- The second image is sort of the direction I am heading in for my own feminine retreat.

- Lastly, words to live by - Audrey Hepburn.

Happy Weekend.

xx, Julie

Reflecting..

It's been a year full of ups and downs for me.
I was blessed with a healthy baby girl in January.
To me there is nothing more precious and sacred then a child's innocence.

I've learned that life is full of surprises good and bad.
I've learned that life can be wonderful but it can also be very unkind
I've learned the importance of holding your head high no matter what comes your way
I've learned that life is a journey and a positive outlook is absolutely better than a negative one.
I've learned good friends and family should be cherished.
I've learned it's better to take the high road.
I've learned I despise dishonesty and disloyalty.
I've learned with each passing year we grow a bit wiser!!!!
I've learned a glass of good bubbly can make things seem a whole lot merrier!

Farewell 2010, hello 2011.

I've learned to believe in "fresh starts and new beginnings"! (and so should you)

Wishing you all peace, love, happiness, health and prosperity in 2011. I think it's going to be a great year, I can feel it!

Be back in 2011! Happy New Year!

Something to ponder...

The philosophy of a good life is this...Love, Laugh, Live and Give. Watch your thoughts because your thoughts become your words. Choose your words because your words become your actions. Understand your actions because they become your habits. Study your habits because they become your character. Develop your character because it becomes your destiny. " Quincy Jones

{amen,couldn't have said it better myself }

I couldn't agree more....

I love a number of the prints {and messages on this Etsy site} The Love Shop
