I am at my daughter's soccer tournament and I'm inspired by the way these 13-14 year old girls work together! We are in the championships later this afternoon and hope to see them work together as a team yet again! Go Toros!

I am inspired by my family - we recently lost my nephew at a young age, and I'm inspired to continue to force :) my family to let me take lots of pictures and put our memories into books and journals to share. Thankfully we have a lot of pictures to spark memories of him.

I am being inspired daily by my own kids. That and the books, The Power of Now, The Four Agreements and Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life. Just trying to get into the moment!

My family -- who was a wonderful team while camping and also when we returned home to a basement that was starting to take on water. We worked together and got the mess cleaned up quickly and efficiently.

It seems like I've been inspired (and excited) by dogs lately. It's summer and you see them everywhere...I love their energy and watching them play. I will have to get another dog soon. I miss having one.

Lately I have been inspired by my children's boundless energy. We just spent a week at DisneyWorld, and they were unstoppable. I had a hard time keeping up with them!

This week some of my photos are inspiring my latest pastel paintings I'm hoping to start painting today---drew them up yesterday. One in particular is of my 20 yr. old daughter posing in a vintage 60's style dress in a retro furniture shop! Fun bright oranges & yellows---not usually in my landscape palette! Thanks Ali for the opportunity!
