My wonderful team of CONFIDENCE teachers has come together to bring you this month’s blog circle!  The theme is Refresh!

The word itself makes me feel lighter.  Yet, taking time to refresh ourselves often falls to the bottom of our list.  How are you carving out time to refresh your creative spirit?  How have you refreshed yourself recently?  I LOVE creative ideas, so please share in the comments!  My CONFIDENCE teachers took up the photo exercise of capturing the theme of Refresh with their camera.  If you only have ten minutes to steal to yourself, how would you capture this theme in a single photo or photo story?

After seven weeks of intense travel, our little family spent a week on a ranch in northern TX.  Throughout the whole seven weeks, I kept thinking of the reward I was getting closer and closer too–time to Refresh with the family and just be.  It was WONDERFUL!

The kids got to fish for the first time

AND they caught their first fish! (thanks Joy!)

Just sitting on the dock, watching the sunset on a lazy afternoon refreshed my soul.

But that’s not all!  We had quite the Texas Ranch!  Check out our family’s adventure story, using Disney’s new Story app, to see my favorite 15 photos!  Wait till you see the thunderstorm and lightning photos Brian captured!  We were three miles away from some of the worst tornadoes ever.

After my Refresh story, continue to follow the blog circle of 8 women photographers.  Head now to Beth’s blog in Portland, OR to see her photo story of Refresh!

    Ah yes! The busier I become the more I am simply craving time with just my family. It’s crazy when I think about it…I feel like the more work I put into my life the more time I should gain as I grow older but that is not the case!:) So glad you had a relaxing time with Brian and the kiddos!

    Did Brian capture the coolest Lightning Photos, or what?!!!

  3. Me Ra says:

    Isn’t that true! I remember being engaged and thinking, ‘Wow! When Brian and I get married we are going to have endless time together!’ 🙂
