On Tuesday | Creative Field Trip
Tags:
On Tuesday I embarked on a creative field trip to Portland to visit my friends Kelly Rae and Andrea.
On Tuesday I took my camera along as I usually do, filled with the possibility of images and captures that would say all that I wanted them to say and maybe even more.
On Tuesday I was lucky.
On Tuesday I took just two photos. This one sums it all up for me. I was there. I was at that table and saw and felt and laughed and smiled and listened and was filled up with the amazing abundance of friendship.
On Tuesday I received the gift of companionship, of a leisurely breakfast, of trying on two rounds of clothes at Anthropologie, of animated talk between good friends about life and marriage and kids and babies and sickness and photos and work and best laid plans and ideas and possibilities.
On Tuesday I felt light.

You know sometimes ya just need a "Girl Day" to make you feel good. I love it when my friends and I make the time to have one of these days. And it is something that we have to make time for in our busy lives. Somebody make up "National Girlfriend Day' or is there one already? Hooray for girlfriends!
