Twilight eyes

After our move to the Pacific Northwest this summer, we've hardly had a chance for decorating and preparing for the Halloween holiday, something that we always do.  Pumpkin carving, mantle decorating, putting together costumes, shopping for mums..have all been put on the back burner this year.  It's been so hectic, just trying to get settled, and get our bearings.  I was feeling so bad for my daughter, I decided to at least do a quick photo shoot together, to get in the mood.  And since we suddenly live in a Twilight movie.  Thought this was appropriate. 

Happy Halloween!

youth arts advocates at the okcmoa

Last night we went to the Oklahoma city Museum of Art http://www.okcmoa.com/ for the youth arts advocates night, the first ever teen council.  The museum stayed open late just for the kids (teens), to peruse the exhibits and do some interactive art themselves.  There was live music on the rooftop and a costume contest for best art related theme or character.  Little Willow never passes up a chance to dress up, so she decided to be the lovely Frida Kahlo.  I think she looked very much like her.  What do you think? 

P.S the vintage earrings that she is wearing will be in the shop later this week.

                                      

Here are a few more shots of the night

Willow and the blank canvas..getting ready for some interactive art

Part of the Okc skyline..on the roof of the museum

And a little bit of that beautiful Oklahoma sunset

I love this Chihuly glass sculpture in the entrance.

I wish I would have thought to have taken a few more pictures of the

evening. Like the music, food, and of course more of the art. 

 But I was guess I was just a bit preoccupied with all the fun I was having

with the family.  XO



Bedroom light

The light was so beautiful coming in the bedroom window this morning, I had to capture a few random shots.

Everything is always so much prettier in a soft, hazy light.

Of course i couldn't help but add a little 60's finish to it.








My buddha statue, that also acts as my jewelry catch all.
I love him..

 


If I could have caught my cat Simba lounging in that patch
of light, I think this might have been the perfect picture.

 


Willow trying on her great grandmother's vintage earrings..she has such good taste :-)
