Field Days {a Collection of Poems}

| Allison

Hello friends!

Recently I’ve been writing some down memories of farm life from my growing-up years – there are so many good stories to preserve! I wanted to share a few of those poems with you today.

Since many of the experiences in these sketches happened within the history of this blog, I dug through the archives and chose some (very old) photos to re-edit for the post. If you’ve been following for long enough, you may recognize some of the pictures or experiences in the poems.

Enjoy a trip back to my childhood. 🙂

Hello friends!

Like I mentioned in this photoshoot post, I recently attended a beautiful girls’ retreat in the mountains with some friends. Over the weekend we had several lovely adventures that I wanted to share with you guys today.

Read on for cute animals, a beautiful hike, and the fanciest tea party. (Warning: this post may make you hungry.)

A Spring Walk at Golden Hour

| Allison
Hello friends! I took the most beautiful walk around our farm the other day, soaking up the all the field and forest goodness I can get before I move away. I absolutely love how the pictures turned out! I hope these golden photos brighten your day as much as they brightened mine. ❤ Continue reading →

Etcetera #14 {Green Sand, a Wedding, and Making Apple Butter}

| Allison

Hello, dears!

Yay, it’s time for another random post! If you’re new to etcetera posts, here’s what we do: every few months, I collect a bunch of miscellaneous photos I haven’t shared and pack them into their own post. Basically this is a big mashup of mini adventures and pretty pictures to hopefully brighten your day as well as preserve memories that I can look back on. (My goodness, this is a long-sentenced intro.)

For some of these photos, we’ll have to go back in time to the days of green grass and fall leaves, but I figured you guys wouldn’t mind some sunshine. 🙂 Sound good? Let’s do this!

Etcetera #13 {Skyscapes, Self-Portraits, Mysterious Feathers, and Inflatable Pineapples}

| Allison

Hello, dears!

I’m finally back with a collection of the random photos I’ve acquired since my last Etcetera post! 😀 Some of the pictures for today include vibrant sunsets, undignified cats, friends’ engagement photos, a baby turtle I rescued, my brother playing drums, and a large collection of paper butterflies.

I’m never quite sure what I hope to accomplish with these posts, but if you’re interested in pretty photos or hearing random bits about a farm girl’s life, mayhaps you will enjoy this scrapbooky collection. 🙂 There’s only one way to find out, isn’t there? So, onwards! To the pictures!

| Allison

Hello, dears!

Welcome back to another round of random photos where I raid my File Explorer and have fun with editing styles. On the menu for today is Nellie the Cutest Goat, our church barn dance (IT WAS AMAZING), people pictures, and vacuums and muffin tins. 😀

Buckle up because we have a BUNCH of photos to get to today. I got tired of narrowing it down any further, so enjoy what is basically a mashup of a bunch of little posts! Here we go!

Etcetera #11

| Allison

Hello, dears!

Yikes. I haven’t done an “etcetera” post in three months – my computer is about to burst with random photos! I went through these again and again and eventually couldn’t bear to narrow them down anymore, so prepare for the biggest photo dump I’ve posted on here in a while. O.o This may require a cup of hot something or a snack, if you’re that kind of person. 😉

Anyway, I’m rather excited about this mish-mashed collection of cute pups, jelly beans, self portraits, foggy photography, tangled plants, adventures, and aesthetic pictures. 🙂 I’ll keep my captions to a minimum so you can just scroll and enjoy.

(Also happy Valentine’s day; I almost forgot. XD) Let’s do this!
