On Tuesday | Creative Field Trip
On Tuesday I embarked on a creative field trip to Portland to visit my friends Kelly Rae and Andrea.
On Tuesday I took my camera along as I usually do, filled with the possibility of images and captures that would say all that I wanted them to say and maybe even more.
On Tuesday I was lucky.
On Tuesday I took just two photos. This one sums it all up for me. I was there. I was at that table and saw and felt and laughed and smiled and listened and was filled up with the amazing abundance of friendship.
On Tuesday I received the gift of companionship, of a leisurely breakfast, of trying on two rounds of clothes at Anthropologie, of animated talk between good friends about life and marriage and kids and babies and sickness and photos and work and best laid plans and ideas and possibilities.
On Tuesday I felt light.
I just love the photo. What type of lens were you shooting with.

What a great day, good for the soul and spirit. I have been following Kelly Rae for a couple of years. Knowing you, I'm sure your gave her some soft spoken words about being a mother and learning how to "balance it all". Love your creative spirt. Enjoying my class with you Yesterday and Today. I listen to your advice and my first page is not like yours at all and I am learning to appreciate it and am tickled with my two page spread and my story.

At my dentist office today I came across a magazine that reminded me of you. The name of the magazine is called:
Seeing the Everyday
They have a website at seeingtheeveryday.com
Have you ever heard of it or seen the magazine?

I love the idea that sometimes it takes a couple of photos to describe your day - thanks for sharing :)

You know sometimes ya just need a "Girl Day" to make you feel good. I love it when my friends and I make the time to have one of these days. And it is something that we have to make time for in our busy lives. Somebody make up "National Girlfriend Day' or is there one already? Hooray for girlfriends!
