coffee, cupcakes + christmas cards

christmas is a special time + we all have wonderful memories of past years spent with family + friends, waking up to opening presents under the tree, feasting on great big meals, and napping it off in front of the tv... die hard was always on in our household!

and so this year we're bringing together a few of the things we love - coffee, cupcakes + christmas cards, on an evening at knockbox coffee company, with some mulberry moment artwork on display (some never seen before!) in support of viva christmas parties.

i know this is a rather moody background, but for some reason i find it quite peaceful! i love how the blue skies are peering through the darken clouds. you can see them. they are there. and because of that i find peace in this imagery.

the past few weeks have been a rather testing time for of number of very close friends. it's hard not to be drawn into their situations emotionally as well, and though there have been restless nights there is hope and love, prayer and friendship. it's been wonderful witnessing things changing for the better, and even though some are still going through the valleys, what we can do is journey with them and point out the blue skies behind those heavy clouds.

quite fittingly as an accompaniment to this, is the inituition's piece - the sun heals us.
