I have to say that I really didn’t think I could survive a day where there’s no bathroom, but proud to say that I actually loved it!

Very peaceful, calm, fun, and of course freakin’ hot!  But it was a good time.

Thank you to our friends for having us… we enjoyed our time very much, and looking forward to more time with y’all out in the country… Yee Haw!

Each time the plane lands in this beautiful country, I know that this high will not last long, but I enjoy every minute of it.

These images are from a trip I took there in May for a few days.  I am surrounded by my dear friends and family.  I hope you enjoy them, just as much as I do.  Everyone of these images, brings such a sense of me… they are moments I will always remember.

Let me introduce you to a few of my people… :)

 

This little collection of images below is so us… My friends who I’ve known for over 25-years!! We grew up together, and to this day talk all the time.  They are both beautiful people with big hearts.  I LOVE you guys!!!

Meet Simon.  He’s Italian.  He smokes.  He drinks a gazillion coffee cups a day.  He drinks wine.  He’s silly.  He laughs.  He’s a goof ball.  He’s my sister’s boyfriend.  He’s a good hearted man.  I love him dearly.

Meet my uncle Clex.  He is a biker.  A bike racer.  A gentle soul.  A wise man.  A kind man.  A handsome man.  An angel.

I wanted to wrap this building up and put it in my pocket and bring it to Texas.  Oh the things I could do there for photography!

The image below is a Cathedral.  It’s huge and absolutely beautiful inside.  This is where you go when you REALLY need God’s help.  Actually… let me re-phrase… this is where I GO when I really need God’s help.  I went…

There are hundreds of stairs to go up to.  As you go up, you are supposed to pray and talk to God.  I did… In heels I must add.

This is once you arrive at the top… it was such a great feeling!

My beautiful sister and her son inside the cathedral.

These are everywhere in the Cathedral.  You have to pay to light them.  They were $5.00 each.  I lit 4 of them.  I prayed.  The next day my prayer came true.  No kidding!


Where I’m from we put our clothes outside like so… So fresh!!!  Yes, we do have dryers too :)

Until next time… I carry you in my heart :)

I try to go back as often as I can… but sometimes it gets a little hard… not only financially but also with the kids and all.   But I was able to get away for a week, and see my family and friends and actually had a BLAST!!!!! Here is a little bitty sneaky peak at what makes Marylie happy, smile, great, laugh, and just absolutely feel peace within.  More to come soon…

Ok… I know this pic below is over exposed, and there are shadows on our faces… but it was one of the only ones I could save.  It contains two of my favorite people in the world.  My sister Chantal who is the most beautiful (inside and out) person I know, and my dearest uncle Clex who drove in the cold, on a motorcycle 3 hours to come see me.  Clex, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for coming to spend the day with me.  I love you and appreciate all of your wisdom about life, and thanks for your advice, I cherish it, and put it to use. xxx

**Thanks mom for taking care of my angels while I was gone :)  I love you.

SO… This morning there was a field trip downtown Fort Worth with Miss Rhonda Hole for my Digital Photography Lighting class.  Rhonda is a well known photographer, especially in Fort Worth.  She also shot my wedding 8-years ago.  She is a great teacher and her work is also fabulous.  5:00am was a hard time to get up for me, but it was well worth it.  The light was AMAZING!!!! Here are some of my favorites that I took.   Hope you enjoy them…along with the basketball belly.  :)  I couldn’t resist taking this shot below, as I past a mirror… almost 7-months prego! YEAH… almost to the end!

I LOVE this shot below… the reflection of the building in the water is so cool…
