the good life

the good life
the good life
the good life

no time to wander around with the camera at the moment, feeling very rushed and restless, so it's back to the archives. this is my mum, back in the early 1960s, enjoying some time off (which was rare enough). makes me want to go to the sea, or for a good hike. she does look happy on the first one, no?

p.s.: love seeing so many of you over on pininterest. yay! let me know if you need an invite to join, i still have a couple.

Feeling restless, that's a bummer! I joined pinterest at the weekend but I neglected reading blogs, not enough internet hours in my day, no hang on I spend all of my day on the internet, what's going on!

Your Mum looks lovely and happy! x

Happy memories. The first photo is particularly beautiful.
I like the nostalgia of older photos. The wedding picture of my parents has a little nostalgic. I like to look at them.

Have a nice week!
