five senses friday + a little road trip

{five senses friday}
hosted by the lovely abby.

See:
-daffodils blooming anywhere & everywhere!
-friends visiting the Love Nest
-bare skin as spring is here!

smell:
-fresh bread baked by him
-smoke from the grill roasting fresh veggies

taste:
-mocha from Uprise Bakery
-fresh, natural ice cream from Sparky's in the rain

touch:
-the warmth of the sun through my window
-soft linens & cottons on my bed
-new little projects in the works

hear:
-laughter & singing from Anna's room last night
-birds chirping 
-excitement for spring break

--------------------
This afternoon, I'm leaving for a short camping trip in southwest Missouri. Luke & I will just be staying one night with his family & possibly traveling to his home in Fayetteville. I won't be back until Monday, so have a lovely weekend; I know I will! I have so many projects planned for this break- taxes, beading, preparing for the Art in the Yard Sale, making photographs, & resting.

love,
Natalie
