Simple Beauty

This morning, while stuck in traffic, I took a minute to pay attention to the beauty that was surrounding me. Although it was dreary, it was picture perfect! (pun intended)

Kelsey Brookes

Today while browsing through Instagram, I came across the work of Kelsey Brookes. How amazing? I'm falling hard for these works of art.

I heart NY

Two weeks ago, I spoke at the Future of Web Design conference in NYC. It was an incredible opportunity and experience. Aside from all the brilliant people met and the wealth of knowledge gained from the event, New York City is such an amazing city to visit and this trip did not disappoint. Check out few Instagram shots below.

Daily Inspiration

My inspiration comes from so many aspects of everyday life. Enjoy your day and see what you can find, which is already in your life, that inspires you!

Walt Disney World via Instagram

It's true. Disney World is simply magical. Every last detail was taken into account while making this the happiest place on Earth.

Here are a few photos documenting our vacation through Instagram.

The castle at Magic Kingom

Watching the sunset from the ferry crossing over to Magic Kingdom.

The Electrical Parade has always been my favorite thing to do at Disney! 

Listening to African beats in Animal Kingdom. I had so much fun dancing with these guys.

Epcot 

If you are thinking about taking a trip to Disney, we were happy with the resort where we stayed. Check out my travel review here on TripAdvisor. 

If you have questions about an upcoming trip, please ask! I would love to help out in any way possible. This is one trip we are sure not to forget.

Running & Inspiration

Running has always been my go to stress reliever. This year, I decided to conquer my bucket list item of running a half marathon! After searching races and dates, the Chicago Rock 'n' Roll Half Marathon became my goal. During countless runs, not only have I gained stamina, but also quite a bit of inspiration. Here are a few Instagram shots taken while running this past week.

Last night at a park near our house. How amazing is this light?

 

These two were taken this past weekend at Railroad Park. Inspiration was everywhere!

Live in the Moment

Living in the present is not my forte. I am trying to learn, more each day, the importance of living in the moment and not letting life pass by so quickly.

Earlier this week, while sitting at a red light on my way to work, I looked up and realized that the sky was absolutely breathtaking. This was a perfect example of a time when I just needed to stop, breathe and take in the moment.

This is the photo I took of the sky. Isn't it beautiful?
