Corner view- Another double post!

Hello sweet friends of mine! We're finally starting to unpack and get settled into our new place, but we didn't have internet last week yet so I missed this past Wednesday's corner view. The topic was "Places of Worship.. or places of Reflection" I thought I would take this time to share with you some of my favorite places to relax and reflect in our new home along with a few photos of our new church community. Be prepared for lots of photos! :)











This week's topic is "The Unveiling, showing your true self". Unlike a lot of bloggers who tend to stay behind the camera, I love taking self portraits! That being said, I had a difficult time trying to think of a way to reveal myself from a different perspective. This is one of the reasons I love Corner View so much.. it challenges you to think out of the box! I decided to take photos today that showed me in a way that only my family and close friends have seen. When I first wake up in the morning (before shower, coffee, or makeup.. although I did sneak on a bit of lipgloss), eating cereal out of the box, during daily tasks such as dish washing and bed making, and before bed at night in the bath.. which is by far my ultimate place of reflection and worship. It is there in those rare quiet moments that my head is most clear and I can sense God closer than ever. Enjoy taking a peek into my (up until now) private world! :)








XOXO, Erin

    Oh Erin your sink! My grandfather (whose house is about the age of yours) has one just like it. I envy the large basin! This was a cute post. :)

    GREAT photos! I really enjoyed that! Your new place looks so quaint and cozy and inviting!! I love it! And I love how you decorate. The outdoor table looks like it is just ready for a picnic! And the bathtub shots were great too, especially your son off to the side eating a banana. :) Now you are making me want to go relax with a good book, but then reality hits me, I have a 2 year old and a 7 week old. :)

    Good morning,
    it's now close to five o'clock in the morning, neighbours dog barking through the night, kid is awake often, enough time to see and enjoy the photography and their journey.

    Your new home is gorgeous! Congrats on getting settled in. You must be thrilled to be there. Love the self portraits. The bathtub pics make me envious. I only have a shower, and I adore baths.
