to recover!
Do you do that after time away on vacation?
I need a recovery period afterwards for goodness sakes.
It's like a mini vacation (well, with unpacking, cleaning & loads of laundry) after
the vacation! ;)
But, after spending time is gorgeousness like this...
iPhone pic of Yosemite Valley. Amazing! |
Hike to waterfall |
Waiting to fish in Mammoth Lakes |
I feel refreshed and ready to tackle the end of summer. Sigh.
(My daughter starts school in less then 3 weeks. Whoa, did it go fast!)
I did find some time today to play in my art journal.
I grabbed 5 bottles of color, some Neocolor II crayons, and started doodling.
Nothing serious. Nothing major. Just play. :)
Instagram Pic - You know I LOVE it! Find me @sadieinspired |
More posts coming this next week with pictures from Yosemite
and of course some art.
How are you planning on finishing up summer??
Linking up to Paint Party Friday and Studio JRU
Yosemite is one of my favorite places - I always call it the National Park in our backyard. We are blessed to live so close by.
ReplyDeleteI love your "just playing" in your art journal, it looks very relaxed and peaceful.
And yes, I usually need a vacation after a vacation...
What a gorgeous place to visit! Your "playing" is very pretty...

ReplyDeleteHi Jen! You have a great vacay! I would love to see more pictures of that beautiful place. And since you are now refreshed and recharged :) Surely your artworks will become a reflection of everything. I can wait to see what your next journals would look like. Have a great week!

I haven't been there in nearly 50 yrs...must do it again before I die.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and fun play journal page too. HPPF on Monday!
Love your playing. Your holiday looks amazing, but I know what you mean...I am always ready for another holiday after the unpacking and laundry. My baby started school a few months ago...I don't know where time has gone where she is concerned, too fast!
ReplyDeleteawe this is great! Nice to fit in a little time. I am soooo excited for school to begin. We need it badly. And I love the IG pic! Looks great!
