The Wildflowers

From the Wildflowers to the Moon

May 17, 2022 by Rebecca Leave a Comment

from the moment you open your eyes
to brand new day
there is an entire world to explore,
let’s go out and start to play.

the earth beneath your feet so strong
holds the dirt that starts new life.
clay and mud and leaves mix together
and worms inch along.

wildflowers bloom and grow
and find their way to the sun
dancing swaying moving
freely letting the wind let them blow.

look up and you will see
the clouds rolling by
the bees, the birds and the butterflies
all find home in the sky.

but look even further
almost past the sun
and find the wind, the spirt
and the light all become one.

and now you’re in the heavens above
they hold the stars, the sun and the moon.
but let’s go back to our home now,
another day starts so soon.

I'm a mama living in Nashville with my man, my two little darlins, my pup, and two bunnies. You can find us working on our 1940 home, renovating our Airstream, swimming in our pool, eating tacos + dancing in the living room. I'm a lover of creating, exploring, traveling + driving down the open road to Paul Simon. Pilates is my therapy, iced coffee and tea run through my blood and I live for trying all the new restaurants in town. I spent years as a wardrobe and prop stylist but have found my purpose in motherhood.

My Happy Song of the Day

One of my fav Nashville + party recs- @vlancahousenashville! I’ve used them for two parties now and they’re the best! If you want a bounce house for a party (even an adult party or shower!) but are insane like me and want it to be pretty 🤪 then this is it. They have other neutral colors!

@getawayhouse was perfect for two days away of pure family time! It was just the right level of camping/glamming for us. Two queen bunks, stocked kitchen for making dinners, bathroom with toilet + shower all set in remote and private woods with a fire pit, picnic table and chairs.

We celebrated Tessa’s 5th birthday and really just soaked up being together the 4 of us. Slowing down, being in the moment and forgetting the outside world for a bit. Cherished family time and it really felt like a “getaway”. Puzzles, games, fires, meals outside, the girls foraging for leaves to make our table pretty, exploring the little town close by. Apple donuts, meals made by the fire, little hikes on the nature trails, crisp mornings. Doesn’t get any better!

We’re in Nashville so the closest Getaway House to us was in Moss, TN- two hours away. There are campgrounds with these houses all over the country though- look up which one is close to you! Celina is the closest town, about 15 minutes, and had a couple cute antique shops, a coffee shop and a great pizza place (the cafe in town that was listed as a recommendation had permanently closed).

We LOVED waking up to the big windows and feeling like we were immersed in nature. They have several add-ons too like a s’mores kit, campfire kit, provisions kit, etc. and it was nice to have neighbors but still have our campground be completely private. They’ve thought of everything.

Couldn’t recommend @getawayhouse more!

A sentimental flashback of one of my favorite three days in all of life. The four of us, my soul bunnies, my guy. My family. One of my favorite parts of the country. This tiny house @thehollerhouse in Murphy, NC was a dream. Just outside Blue Ridge, GA and not too far from the Cherokee area in NC.

We were off the grid. We played all the games. We danced. We laughed. We soaked in the tub. We walked. We explored. No agenda, no time. Just being.

Highly recommend bunking up with your family in a tiny space every now and then. Wake up in the same room. Say yes to all the things. Collect treasures. Swing. Be silly. Dance in the rain.

Do the alpaca tour in Murphy. Go to the breweries in Blue Ridge. Go see the chimpanzees at @projectchimps- hike here too. And stop at @mercierorchards for the best peaches.

We’re about to do it again for fall break, this time at @getawayhouse!

Go to this event if you can! @waterlanternfestival - it’s all over the US. It was so well done. Beautiful, magical, spiritual, powerful. Such a sense of community and hope. A night to remember.

Your ticket gets you a water lantern to build and decorate. There were also food trucks, stories told, a collective meditation, positive affirmations all through out.

And then when the sun goes down, everyone sets their water lantern in the water and watches as they float slowly by. People wrote tributes, wishes, love notes, intentions, inspiration, hope. It was truly magical to watch all the twinkling lights + read so many beautiful words and so special to do it with my mom and my girls.

The festival is also partnered with water.org which helps people get clean, safe water.

One of my favorite events I’ve been to- highly recommend going to their profile and seeing if it’s coming to your city soon.
✨✨✨
