There will be no Art Display Project today but Come back on Tuesday for my last guest blogger, and then Wednesday for a sneak peek into a few wall projects of my own I’ve been working on AND… the GIVEAWAY winner will be announced! So use this break to enter the contest and have a peek into a wonderful lifestyle project I’m doing this year with a handful of incredibly amazing talent.
The weather has been absolutely beautiful this month, nothing like January at all. Today was no exception so after church we decided to go exploring to find a new place to hike. One of the things I adore about where we live is the diversity in the landscape. Our house backs to “open space” with golden hills and scrub oak trees. We can drive less than an hour west and hit the Pacific Ocean. And just up Highway 24 we can enjoy redwood forests and lush vegetation. Today we headed to the trees. It felt like a different world once we entered the trail. The redwoods towered above us letting pockets of light in here and there. The scent of Eucalyptus hung in the air. It was cool and moist and everything was incredibly quiet, it was almost eerie. The kids said they felt like they were in Jurrasic Park. I would have to agree. It was magical. A stream and a bridge and all was well with the world. We’re going back again soon!
Don’t stop here. Continue around the circle and take a peek at what everyone’s been up to this month starting with Jennifer Nguyen | Snails and Pigtails Photography | Temecula, CA Photographer. Keep clicking through the circle and you’ll end up right where you started.

Nice hiking trip. I always want to go hiking with my family. It’s such a great fun way to bond.
The trees are amazing! I love the boys being boys – stick throwing 🙂
We love hiking and these are so fun! Love the shot looking up into the trees. Amazing!
Looks so beautiful up in the mountains where you live! What a perfect outing and beautiful imagery!
So beautiful! Sounds you live in Paradise, between the redwoods and the sea. Love how you captured this outing with your family!
So gorgeous Wendy. Dont you love Sunday afternoons? It’s such a peaceful day to enjoy nature. We love being outdoors. Great job documenting, perfect!
this is such a gorgeous place! love the perspective and beauty of the adventure! your kiddos are so lucky to have such a large family … you can totally feel the love in these!
Where is this? What a gorgeous place! I’d love to take my family hiking there. We’re in Richmond and love to go to Pt. Pinole. It’s definitely a favourite!
Looking through your lifestyle “personal” photos is recharging me a bit… I feel that I’ve lost my initial wonder that I had 6-7 years ago when I first got into photography & enjoyed taking photos of my own family. I haven’t done it much at all this past year, and am really missing it. Thanks for sharing your own pictures. It’s an encouragement to me. 🙂
