Clear Out

So I figured it was time
to stop drawing out the inevitable
that I would have to stop posting about
France
and make many many more memories.

These are the pretty little pictures
taken at pretty little moments
throughout our trip
to bubs homeland.

Pas-de-Calais we love you.

With Love, Beau xx

This year is important

This year

is the 18 year
and I'm so very very grateful
that I have the kind of friends
who just go to dinner
share memories
and laugh when they wanna celebrate.

On your birthday you shouldn't have to try too hard.

"Love is watching someone die"

That is my most favourite lyric from the Death Cab album plans

and that's what I've been up to lately.
making plans like these:


for scouts
and Psonar
and for my future.

Scary Stuff.

Memory Song

I don't really know how.
But this song.
This song.
Became a memory song.

Hearing it keeps me inspired
it keeps me going.

With Love, Beau xx

Saint-Valery-sur-Somme

A walk along the coast

Boats, cafes and coffee
Hand in hand
sun and smiles

Picture Perfect really.

With Love, Beau xx

Days when you're holding things together (just)

No matter how hard days get
Death Cab
make everything logical
so I can fix things
and smile again.

P.S. Nothing is half hearted

The Cast: Paris

This is my northern lass.

She's so freaking smiley.
She's so freaking blunt.
She's the go-to for straight talking advice.
She's Sarah.
Or Paris.
And I'm ridiculously grateful to know her.

"Oh mother I thank you, for all that you've done and still do"

My siblings and I committed the ultimate sin:

we forgot my mother's birthday

it has to be small because I'm so ashamed.
My defence is at least I knew the date (my sibs didn't).

So, anyways to make it up we had to do something beautiful
and the meal pictured below was the result of that.
Candlelight can right even the worst of wrongs.

Menu:
Leek and Potato Soup
Salmon En Croute
Wimbledon Cake

(I made the kitsch little cake. isn't it adorable?!)

With Love, Beau xx

Friends Forever (Graduation)

So I've been thinking lately
that if I leave this town for another in England
I will feel terribly terribly trapped.

But equally if it's the USA
that ends up being for me
my heart will be absolutely wrenched
from my chest.

This song may just sum all that up...
I think.

P.S. Starter For Ten is a whole load of beautiful.

With Love, Beau xx

Paris-a-la-plage

Le Touquet

Sun, Sea, Shopping
My Memories
'It will feel like you've been before'
'It feels like ghosts walk the streets'

oh and you'll never have felt more in love

(those little silvery bits? they're fish!)

These memories are the most precious of things.
More Soon.

With Love, Beau xx

Paradise Lost

This is my own little paradise

where I awonder with G
and the light this particular day
was something very very special.

It made my day.


Location: The Botanicals. Conditions: Freezing.

With Love, Beau xx

Guess What?

We made memories.

With Love, Beau xx

(more trip notes soon I promise)
