A project finished, layouts & a freebie.

FOR TODAY... 

outside my window... looks like it is going to be a beautiful cloudless day.
i am thankful for... energy and motivation.
I am wearing... workout clothes.
i am remembering... i need to make plans for the spring break trip.
I am going... to go for a long walk.
i am currently (still) reading... "the shadow of the wind" by carlos ruiz zafon.
i am hoping... for a great week!
on my mind... will be nice to have more daylight hours..... but the time change is hard!
noticing that... warmer weather is here.
pondering these words... "i want to make myself an empty room: quiet whitewashed walls with slant sunshine and a fresh breeze through open windows" -deng ming-dao-
from the kitchen... K cereal and fat-free milk.
around the house... morning light coming through the windows.
one of my favorite things... getting packages in the mail.
i'm creating... a design for a race car helmet for dh!
a few plans for the rest of the week... taxes, more cleaning and lots of digi-scrapping!
from my lens...
love a relaxing sunday and long talks with judith.

as some of you know, my husband spends lots of time away on business and one of his latest projects was the construction of a residential high-rise in the city of san salvador which he started in 2007. he has put lots of effort, sacrifice and  energy into this venture & all has been worth it. please know that we are so very proud of you babe!!! here are some photos of the new Terra Alta apartment building:

  3. i love your monday morning post. often i find myself sitting here, contemplating, well after i'm done. sometimes, you find a blog, reading it is so nice and interesting and comfortable. a place you want to keep coming back to.....
    that's what yours is for me. i love the way you write and your photography, your clean lo's. maybe i'm in a melancholy mood today, hahaha, but i really enjoyed your blog post.

  4. Like Nichole, I look forward to reading your posts each Monday too! Reading your blog makes me feel like I'm only just round the corner from you, rather than half way round the world!

    WTG to your DH ... those apartments looks AMAZING. No wonder you're so proud of him. The photos are stunning ... did he / you take them?

    Thanks for your latest freebie, though how you find to create these gorgeous templates along with all your gorgeous LO's, I'll never know!

    Have yourself a fabulous week & we'll "talk" again next Monday.

    Hugs,
    Sue
