Sweet Puppy Love

What is sweeter than a pair of puppies? Meet Lennon “Lenny” and McCartney “Micky”! They are my 6 week old babies. Born to the same mom (a Chihuahua)— one has a Jack Russel father and the other a Yorkie father (look up how that happens, lol!). They are the lights of my days.

Brave Enough

I wasn’t brave enough, the first time,  to let you go
So I stumbled in the darkness instead 
Looking for a light that I don’t  think existed 
Grasping at the air and reaching for something, anything
Not sure when I stopped caring about tomorrows
I just wasn’t brave enough, the first time, but now I know©

Order In Chaos

“Chaos is merely order waiting to be deciphered.”
― José Saramago, The Double

In a world full of chaos I am drawn to order and straight lines. They bring me a sense of peace and happiness. Perhaps it is because with life around me going every which way; the hustle and bustle of people is enough at times to make me withdraw into my anxiety. I look for things that are neat, organized and precise. To capture these things in a photo is amazing and gives me great pleasure. ~Mac

Fragile Petals

“Some women feel the need to act like they’re never scared, needy or hurt; like they’re as hardened as a man. I think that’s dishonest. It’s ok to feel delicate sometimes. Real beauty is in the fragility of your petals. A rose that never wilts isn’t a rose at all.” ~Crystal Woods

A Historic Surprise

If you missed my post earlier this past weekend, I shared that I was venturing to Charleston, SC for my first time. My best friend and I were off for a girl’s weekend, a much needed break. So, with camera in hand, she gave me a tour of the historical city. There will certainly be more photos shared in the coming weeks, but I had to share this pleasant surprise I came across.

As we were on our way out of town, we drove by this splendid vehicle in front of a building that did it justice for sure. I asked (or more like squeeled delightfully) for my friend to pull over. Being a lover of cars, this was quite the treat to come across. I hope you enjoy this fabulous, classic Rolls Royce as much as I did.

A String Of Lights

“It’s alright, just wait and see, your string of lights is still bright to me. Who you are is not where you’ve been. You’re still an innocent. It’s okay life is a tough crowd…” ~Taylor Swift

Your Lovely Heart

Let me through the gate of your lovely heart
Where this garden lays sweet with blooms
Forever together we shall be, never to part
Happiness, joy and love filling up the rooms

And if by chance we are torn ussunder dear
Remember that nothing can keep us apart 
As we are held by love that draws us near
Forever I’ll hold a key to your lovely heart©

Moving Forward

I love the theme this week for Dutch Goes The Photo’s Tuesday Photo Challenge: Moving Forward. In lue of the time change (daylight savings) effecting most of us here in The States, comes the idea of time and moving forward. One of my favorite things to photograph is clocks and clock towers. So, taking the literal sense of time, here are some captures I took just this week in Georgetown, SC. What a great little historical, harbor town. I’ll have more to come, but hope you enjoy these few takes.
