Beautiful Mess


The past 2 years have been filled with so many different experiences and emotions. The good, the bad, and the ugly, I’ve been there done that. I have laughed hard with good friends, cried until I couldn’t open my eyes, and loved until every ounce of me hurt. I've struggled through lessons life has taught me, and questioned my purpose about 4.5 million times. I've left the most amazing city in the world, and married the most incredible man I have ever known. I've brought life into this world, survived a house fire, resigned from a job that provided financial security for my family, and picked up a camera that has taken me down a new road. I've taught myself to use that camera though many times I have wanted to put it away and just give up. But something always takes me back to it. I love that camera. I love the stories that it captures.

My life is wonderful in so many ways, abundantly blessed by my Savior. Nothings ever perfect but the one who saved me. For that I am relieved. I am at peace knowing that my growing list of "to do's" may never be checked off, that my house will never be spotless and that I will never know everything about everything. I am thankful that I get to spend time with my soul mate and together lead our incredible little boy in the way he should go.

I am a beautiful mess for sure, but even in the mess... I am blessed.
