Bruun Idun, One of Thomas Dambo’s Northwest Trolls ~West Seattle

redeemingbeautyfamilyadventures

“In the night, there was a storm, there at the beach
Where she was born
And Idun felt a feeling wrong, and so she walked there
In the dawn
And in a flute, the magic horn, a tune so passionate and Strong
She played for them an orca song to ask them where they all had gone”

– Thomas Dambo

Bruun Idun, one of the Thomas Dambo’s Northwest Trolls, lives at Lincoln Park in West Seattle. She is one of the six trolls that the Danish artist has made from recycled materials and has installed around the Northwest .

Look for the birdhouses . They are a clue that you are in the right area . Walk along the water until you see her near the Colman Pool, and from her spot hidden in the trees, she sings to the orcas of the Salish Sea❤️

Thomas Dambo has trolls all over the world so I attached the link below to see a map of where you can find them ⬇️

Carlsbad Beach 🏄

Carlsbad beach is simply breathtaking 🌊

The view captured there was absolutely amazing!

There were surfers 🏄 riding the waves as the sun was setting which was so fun to watch.

The ocean was captivating as the tide started to move in and we couldn’t help but get caught by it as it came in. Such a beautiful moment ❤️ I wish we would have had a whole day here just to enjoy it .

Goals, homemaking

Spring Refresh 🌷

I’m loving how this picket fence side board turned out. It has served our family in many ways .. dessert table…party favor center…trail mix station.
.
For this season, I am using it as Goal planning area. I have my @cultivatewhatmatters Goal planner open to the areas I’m working on cultivating in my home and life. I also have some of the tools there to easily grab and use like a Bible, recipe books ,planners,and encouraging verses/signs to visually encourage me toward the areas I’m working on cultivating.
.
Ofcourse, there are also items for the littles like gum and some of our @chatbooks to encourage us as a family to set time aside to plan adventures.
.
It has been a wonderful way to have the items where I can see them on a daily basis .

homemaking

Spring Refresh

Feeling inspired to refresh our home with a nautical beach theme for the spring into summer season. These are some of the looks that inspired me plus our recent trip to @seabrookwa . I’ve never been a blue person other then denim but I have a newfound love for navy blue this season⭐️
