Today I find myself packing for the next chapter. As I fold away my California life in the house where I met my husband, had my amazing children and started traveling the world again. I pull out my city clothes for New York, leopard jackets and baubles and close the lid on my Haviana's and soft tees better left for a life in sunny paradise. Butterflies in my stomach for a new day and environment and I reflect on life's journey and how much has changed. Photography has become a passion I never would have guessed I had and documenting anything and everything is satisfactory on so many levels. I close my art books, put them back on the shelf and hug my husband-who has shown me such a beautiful life and two of the most inspiring little beings who have equally embraced the world by our side.

Leather and fur studded purses found in an alley in Hong Kong late one night
Cutest kids flats ever...denim with an ankle buckle, too cute with leggings, Zara
Vintage faux pearls
My hardworking husband in front of one of our first purchased paintings- La Dolce Vita-a scene from the Fellini film.
Sweet and sassy Milla and the skateboard art drawn with Dad. Cuba Libre.
My little muse- she'd like'd to be a scientist, surfer/golfer and a designer so I think that's an interesting mix. She will be busy.

Lucite on notes from my great grandmother's Grace's scrapbook, found high in the closet today.

Syb you amaze me everyday! You are so talented in everything you touch! You and Tay are raising beautiful children with amazing spirits and a zest for whatever they have been given to do that day, and in life! I have truly loved and embraced each moment we have been able to spend together while you and the fam are in CA. I know you will all love your adventures in the big city and all that you do from here forward!
