I always love a good Colorado thunderstorm! The nice big ones that are carried by giant, heavy, gray clouds. They plow in just as fast as they plow out while dumping inches of rain in a short amount of time. I think I love the thrill of it all. The lightning stretching across the sky, the thunder roaring and startling me every time, and the constant “severe storm warning” alerts to my cell phone.
The other evening we set out for a coffee date at the Broadmoor to sit outside and watch the Colorado sunset set and take some fun golden hour pictures. Then, out of nowhere, on our way over fat drops turned to a downpour and there we were in a beautiful thunderstorm. We grabbed hot coco, played in the rain, and then cozied up inside by the fire place – we couldn’t have planned it better!
I’m loving this new Gap Chambray top I got on sale last weekend and this fun long necklace from Happiness Boutique (free shipping!) It makes for a great work to everyday life outfit and I’m all about that!
Sometimes life has thunderstorms. They are scary, loud, messy, and not in the plans but I’ll bet if you try to see it at a new angle, you will see a new adventure as well. Here’s to thunderstorms – the literal ones and the furniture ones – let’s embrace progress over perfection.
Haha so cute, Elizabeth!
Yayyyy. I love running through thunderstorms with you and hoping that I don't get struck by lightning! 😉 P.S. Love the shirt and the necklace. You are cute.
Too cute! Thunderstorms are what I miss the most now that I live in the PNW.
I know! I am spoiled by them! I get them all the time in the summer! I forget not everyone does!
WE made it out alive! No lightning strikes!
YAY! I love it!
Thanks so much!
I totally agree! I freaked MEgan out though getting in the rain. She was nervous about the whole lightning thing!
Oh man! I love them so much!
you're so pretty!
and that necklace with the whole outfit – gorgeous!
