The Mind of Avie | Quotography Monday #3

Another weekend has ended and another Monday has arrived. Although this past weekend was a great one, I wanted to start this week off on another great note. The only way to do that is, positivity. I do apologize for the delay of this post. My week has been thrown off by the holiday. With Monday being Labor Day (in the US, at least) a lot of folks were off. What another great way to start the week, a holiday! :) 

This weekend, or should I say past week, was the start of college football. I have been waiting for this season to start for what felt like a million years. My husband and I are planning to attend all the home games for Mississippi State. We drove to the college to get our student tickets for the season and while we were on our way home, my hubby pointed out this amazing cloud in front of the sun. I just couldn't look at it, I had to snap a pic. The light from behind the cloud just screaming to shine was just amazing. I felt like the photo didn't capture the beauty of it entirely, but just having a photo to remember it was good enough for me.

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and continued to have a wonderful week. I have been enjoying these Quotography Mondays. I find it as a great way to showcase photos I've taken throughout the week, that I otherwise wouldn't share.

Monday has arrived, again! If you are like me, and the majority of people I know, Mondays are not the most welcomed day of the week. I have a great way to start your monday and one I have enjoyed, Quotography Monday. It gives me another reason (not that I needed more than I have already) to look at all my photos I have taken in the past week or so and add a quote the is meaningful to the photo in some way. What a special way for me to showcase some of the photos I had taken while on vacation earlier this month! 

The photo above was taken just two weeks ago when my hubby, little younger sister (I feel like I can't say little sister anymore. One, she is taller than me now. Two, she isn't little anymore. Three, she is 23 going on 24 years old), and I went on vacation to visit some family in Washington State. In the photo is my husband, father, and myself. The bridge above is the infamous Deception Pass bridge. It is the only way to drive onto Whidbey Island by vehicle, other than taking the ferry. Deception Pass Bridge is 180-ft above the ocean depending on the tide levels. Tourists are able to walk across the whole bridge, which by the way no matter how many times I've walked across, I am still terrified when I cross the bridge! 

I love everything about Washington, well maybe not the weather all year round, but I most definitely love the scenery! 

If you have photos you could match quotes with, this link party is for you! Join us for Quotography Mondays and link up at the same time.

The end of the month is coming soon, which only means one thing... Monthly Favorites time! Stay tuned for my August Favorites, I picked up a few new items that have been a hit in my book! Can't wait to share them with you all. Also stay tuned for my review I keep promising you all on a certain moisturizer! Forgive me on the lateness on the review, but it is coming soon! Thank you all for hanging in there!

Recently I joined this amazing link up party. It incorporated photography, quotes, and a link up party. How awesome is that!? Well I was so excited when April from My Captivating Life contacted me and asked me to join. She has been hosting this link up party for a few weeks now and I finally got a photo worth the post!

 

In this photo my husband and I were on vacation visiting some family in Washington State. My parents have an amazing trail head right down the road that leads to all these different sites off of waterfalls. On this specific one my husband and I were able to stand on a boulder that was right next to the waterfall. My sister took the photo from a bridge that was overlooking the waterfull and the creek it created. The boulder and waterfall were so huge you can barely see us standing there in the top left corner! The scenery was so amazing and all the photos will never do it justice!

 

Now for the Rules:

1. Choose your favorite photo of the week.
2. Find a quote that represents the photo.
3. It is preferred that the photo is taken within the past week.
4. Comment on at least 5 other entries, this must be completed in 48 hours.
5. Please link back by putting the button in your post.

Also stay tuned for a review on a recent product I picked up on a whim. Find out if I loved it or hated it in my next post. Here's a hint; its a moisturizer. ;)
