I’ll just let the images speak for themselves. But its great you know, when sometimes we need not say anything at all…

Do you have any writings on the wall?

I am finding myself drawn to the photos of Anna Dykema today.  The haziness of each image puts me into such a relaxed state. Almost dreamlike.

How do you feel when you look at these photographs?

Visit Anna Dykema on etsy to view more of her photography.

Jeff and I had an amazing time on our trip. And we are finally back home and getting into the swing of things again. The weather was perfect- lots of sun, not a drop of rain.

I am not sure if I even mentioned where it is that we actually went before I left… we were on a cruise. And visited the Bahamas, St Maarten, and St Thomas. It was so beautiful. Thought I would share a few pictures from the trip (its just a few- I don’t want to bore anyone).
