Last night we went for a walk after dinner. Something that we’ve always wanted to be able to do and now, its becoming a reality for us. Sigh.
The beautiful moon. She was visible in the still light sky and Cedar decided to sing a song about Her. I love that most of his songs sound like chants. Like he just knows how to communicate with vibrations of nature.
I have much more to share. More images and stories…and I promise to come here soon. I am such a nester and when I move somewhere or visit or stay in a hotel, the first thing I do is unpack and settle. But its been different here. I can’t stay inside for too long. I pack half a box and then I am out in the green with Cedar or with our family or neighbors. I am so easily distracted these days. I still have massive amounts of boxes to unpack and no decorating has been done (soooo odd for me as decorating his my favorite part!). I have hundreds of emails to respond to and some important business to take care of and yet, I feel like I am on vacation when I am not, really…but it feels like it. ; )
Here are a few images of my boys last night during our walk around the hood.

Denise – I’m so happy for you. I’m so jealous too… I wanted to be up there so badly and now it looks like my plans have been thwarted. But we’ll make our way back to Bellingham sooner or later. Enjoy your new home and neighborhood. It looks incredible, magical and … like the paradise you all deserve. Take care, dreadie sista!

I saw this before on Instagram, but I want to reiterate how absolutely beautifully that picture of Carsten and Cedar looking out over the water turned out. Such gorgeous lighting.

Like you, I’m enjoy my new environment so much that much is left to be done to have a fully operating house… but somehow I don’t care!

There is power in writing down your dreams. I recall clearly how you described this place your hOMe and here it is. You are nestled all snug in your ‘hood’. My heart is happy with tinges of delight and brimming with joy for you threesome.
Continued love with your ‘moonbeams’

New place looks fantastic! So happy for you and your little family. We recently moved too, but we’re having a harder time with it, missing our old town. Your photos help me remember that it’s beautiful here too, and remind me that my kids feed off of my emotions and melancholy about our old house. Your whole journey has helped me open my heart to our new house a little more every day.

Hi Denise.
I know exactly why you don’t feel the need to decorate immediately. Two reasons. #1 You don’t feel the need to place your imprint on the space. You don’t need to cover up the parts of the house that do not fit your family. You don’t need to do these things as the house, simply as it is, is wonderful already!
Secondly, take your time! You will be here for many years. I imagine your soul is saying go slow, enjoy this time. Marinate. You will have so much time to put yourself into your decor….
See, even though I may be so very different from you, I think I am finally getting it!
Hugs and Canadian love
Rebecca.

Wow wow wow is it ever beautiful there! That water…so glorious! What a magical place you are in.

How beautiful it is there.! Cedar is enjoying yet another puddle.:)
A puddle is a wonderful thing for a small one, full of reflections, the sky, ones self, and at the same time you can see beneath the surface. How wondrous!

Hey Denise, this is so sweet. I can just feel the calmness and happiness surrounding y’all.
What an absolutely perfect place to be living and raising that boy.
Blessings, Boho’s

I’m usually a lurker but I wanted to say how very beautiful and fulfilled these pictures make me feel. You have found a very special place and time.
ps That said, while I understand feeling so comfortable that you don’t need to decorate right away, I hope you’ll take lots of photos when you do!!!

Oh he is just so adorable I want to eat him! (Cedar, not your man. Although he’s quite adorable, too. I’ll just leave the eating up to you.)
How did your kitties fair the move?

Glad to know the Pacific Northwest’s embrace is being felt. This area is powered by magic.

O my goodness that made my heart melt!

Love that you call the moon “she”. We always do too. I love hearing my two year old say, “look mom! isn’t she so lovely tonight?”
Glad you’re happy in your new space!
