{this moment}....the hot springs


Knowing that snow is just around the corner makes the hot springs feel luxurious and decadent. It was in the eighties the other day and it was pure heaven.  My children are all of an age that I no longer have to watch them. We walk in and they all go their separate ways and are totally in their own groove. I am free to swim laps or just loll around under water watching sun beams refract off of turquoise. Pure heaven, I say!


Is my sweet girl fixin' to kick the living hell out of this poor unsuspecting child? I believe she is.

Mom is too busy taking pictures and pretending to be a fish to discipline anyone.

Have a lovely!

  1. Looks wonderful! I need to grab the boys and head to the beach this afternoon before Fall is truly upon us! Thanks for the reminder! As for your question about the headband, the black part was just a basic cotton stretch hair band from the cosmetic/hair section at Walmart! Super cheap!

  5. I just love your photos!! I can feel the sun beating down on me!! I'm ready for the cold weather but I will have to refer back to your photos in the middle of winter to feel warm again. :) Thanks for sharing your moment with us. Don't you just love how this has given us all the opportunity to catch a glimpse into each other's life? Have a peaceful and safe weekend. : )

  7. Who needs discipline when everyone's having a ball...Perhaps it's the evil snake that got to her? :)

  8. Can I go there?!? Just to hear all that laughter and splashing and towel-cuddling would be like therapy to these grey days of chill and wind. Great picture.

  10. This looks wonderful Ivey!! It's finally gotten a bit too cool for us to jump in the pool here, 60's in the morning, 80's during the day--but then I think what if I didn't have FL blood, maybe the temp would be perfect! :)
