'A portrait a week of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013'
This is one of my favorites! Soren LOVES playing any sport that incorporates a spherical object. Often times you will here him rattling off all the different kinds of balls out there. 'There's a soccer ball, basket ball, baseball. There's the football, golf ball...' and on he goes.
I have been helping our landlady with her travel business as of recent - when Soren is in dream land and on my days off - and have encountered an INSANE amount of great vacation ideas.
One being the Caribbean... So let's talk.
There are hundreds of resorts - adult only and others that accommodate all ages. Some in the mountains - some on Punta Cana, Jamaica and others on St. Lucia. And don't get me started with the alternative Mexico option. For simplicity, St. Lucia.
Absolutely... stunning. With so much to do it will make your head spin. And for quite a few different price points. Take a look...
The company I am working for is Integra Travel and the owner is Dolly Kohls. She is a travel genius. With well over 20 years travel experience in the business and personally she's the lady for you. She is 110% devoted to her clients and with her broad range of experience knows how to get the best vacation for the best price. Her emphasis is in international travel and national 5 star resorts.
I never imagined traveling like this would be possible for us, but she has proven otherwise. The world is your oyster! More locations to come!
Literally!
Soren and I hung out in our backyard last week and it was SO beautiful I had to snag a few shots.
We have totally lucked out with this apartment. We have amazing landlords, a bird sanctuary and 8 acres of forest in the back, a whole family of deer outside our bedroom windows, a rope tree swing - it's perfect. We love it here, it was just what our family needed.
Plus! We are 10 minutes from downtown and work with a safe bike route - can't wait to get pedaling.
Our home is finally a sanctuary. A calm place from the storm of work and chores. We are in the throws of opera season, the station just started a new show Rick is working on, his project list is growing, and I have some really fun projects coming up in the fall... and our apartment, our home - is perfect for coming home, filling the mini pool and relaxing with our little man.
Our backyard is not only calm - but a great place for sensory play. We search and collect rocks, leaves and examine bugs.
what are some of your favorite ways to relax? where or how have you created your sanctuary?

This guy - is - so - cool! Just swinging around in our beautiful backyard/woods accompanied by August and the mini pool. He makes my heart smile!

This pic sums up what we do most days. 'Baseball! Basketball! Soccer Ball! Bouncy - Bouncy - Bouncy!' And don't think you can get away with just watching - you have to play to!! I love it.... It's between that and the park. I snagged this shot the same day, I feel like I got a glimpse of what our little boy will look like as a young man. He's losing his baby chubs and becoming a little boy!
