The Past 24 Hours

heart shaped rock on the beach

Yesterday, after visiting the lovely Swirly at her Ordinary Sparkling Moments event at TT Patton. I headed off with my friend to Michigan, where a bunch of our other friends were staying at a friend’s house on the lake. It was such a blur of trip I can barely believe I was there. We just caught the sunset, which was cut short by clouds, still pretty, did not get any photos though.

It was the best night hanging out with my friend, and sledding down a wooden staircase that was sorda covered in snow, in the middle of the night. I only made it down twice the second time completely losing the sled and taking quite a few stairs without one was a bit painful. We tried to fly kites, but there was no wind which is odd when you are on the beach off Lake Michigan. I ran up and down this really long staircase (my legs are hurting today) and we laid in the snow and stared at the beautiful stars for as long as we could stand the cold. We would have made a snowman had the snow been packing snow. It was nice to have some time today to just wander up and down the beach and take photos and enjoy the sound of the waves coming in. Makes me want to live near water…It was a quick get away but exactly what I needed!

Check out some other photos here.
