it's a lovely summer morning here. i slept with our window open, last night. i can't tell you how much, i enjoyed the cool breeze.
i have been wondering where are all the butterflies are, that usually visit our garden. it seems like i have only spotted one or two. maybe i need to set a chair out there, sip my coffee, and be patient. i do love them, so much. : )
i stayed up reading this book, last night. all of it. i couldn't put it down. i felt this book, on so many levels. a gift from se'lah. thank you, friend. xo
hey, speaking of se'lah, it's her birthday!!! happy birthday! and i am visiting over there today. won't you stop in and say hello? or leave a wish? hoping to see ya there ; )
how is your day going, so far, my friends?
one love~

I always love a little stop-by here. Hope the cool nights continue and reach up this way too, I would love to sleep without the A/C humming in the background.
love your butterfly photos,
the image of sleeping with a window open, the breeze, goes well with the image of butterflies.
perfect
love the sidebar photo:)

i am usually a lurker but had to say how adorable you are!
i love it here.
i have a stupid question. is your hair naturally curly? lol i know, silly question right? it's just beautiful!! i went natural 6 months ago and it is a mess. maybe a future post on those gorgeous curls of yours? i love your sidebar photo.

ps: off to visit se'lah.
Oh beautiful butterflies...yours are gorgeous! And oh how I would love to sleep with the windows open...but it does not cool off enough in the night here for that.
Off visit Se'lah too.
I see your new selfie up there!! =)
What beautiful photos, Christina! That book sounds fascinating! We had a bit of a surprise in my family this weekend - stop by and see..:) Have a gorgeous week! Heading over to Se'lah's now! xxoo :)
Lovely butterfly pictures-your tactic of sitting to wait worked then?!
the butterfly was so good to be so still & pretty for you, how beautiful!!!
I love butterflies and Angel figurines. (=
Those butterfly shots are sublime, my friend. So glad you're having such a lovely summer day. xo Gigi
You are adorable! I love the new profile pic. I saw a butterfly in our yard yesterday and it made me so happy. I love seeing them. Outdoor time is heaven.
bridget* not a silly question at all! : ) i went natural with my hair about 2 years ago. it can get dry,(gotta keep it moisturized) but i appreciate my curls. i do have my days, where i have some words for my hair. lol!
most times i throw it up in a pony tail, on top my head. like in the photo. ah... summer days.
a post? maybe. lol on a good hair day. ; )
thank you, friend.

Sleeping with the windows open in the summer is one of my favorite things to do...

thanks so much to you for the wonderful birthday wishes...such a joyous day, indeed.
glad you enjoyed the book...I'm enjoying listening to the other brother's new album right now ;) Jr. Gong wicked, eeee?
i always feel happier after reading your posts and viewing your images... thank you christina.... LOVE... LOVE... and LOVE.
It has been a truly wonderful day for me. Thank you for letting us know about Se'Lah's birthday, don't want to miss that. I love Summer, especially this one has been a great one for me so far.
You are waiting for butterflies and I am waiting for hummingbirds. Maybe I should join you sitting with patience. Are you having any fire flies in Wisconsin? I am hoping, it has been so many years since I have seen them.
I've been to see her. And, I have to tell you, my friend, you give good birthday wishes.
(psst, Marylin, yes! there ARE fire flies in Wisconsin....fewer, but I enjoy every wink)
Oh Christina, what would we do w/o ponytails? And how cool is that-we get to see your whole sweet smile ;)
Such a busy day - glad I could still fit all my greetin's in!
i adore that last snapshot. the light, and color...beautiful.
so far my day has been filled with a runny nose + strong coffee. hopefully my allergy medicine will kick in soon.
have a wonderful day :)

I know! There's nothing better than sleeping with the window open and feeling that breeze moving around. Oh, and butterflies! Have had the same one visiting my garden for days now. Huge and yellow and happy.
My day is going wonderfully!! And to be able to sleep with windows open at night is a real treat. We have been too! Love the cool breeze and the sounds of all the birds in the early morning!
Hugs

Having trouble posting comments on your blog, for some odd reason. Worked fine for two posts; then suddenly, practically impossible! Pfft! Anyway, gorgeous photos; always a treat popping in to visit. xoxox
Gorgeous photos of the garden and the butterflies. Hope you get to see more of those. It sounds so nice to sit in the garden with the coffee and watch for their beautiful flutterings.
