HOLIDAY CARD

When I post about work, it tends to be about cards When I post about work, it tends to be about cards because they are something tangible that people can buy, and because I truly believe in the magic of snail mail and letter writing. But recently I thought of this old job of mine. It was huge and hard in the loveliest way. I designed the walls and floors and cozy corners, all the way down to the doors and everything in between. The space launched in 2020, a couple months prior to Covid, so it didn’t get much traction. We had no way of knowing that it would be the wrong time to have a colorful (but small) space for people to come and spend time together taking photos and sharing time in between shopping. Looking back, the true fun was in the making. I absolutely loved everyone who worked on this project with me, the kindest bunch of people who worked so hard until the wee hours of the morning for days on end…in the mall.

Stop three was SPAIN, just us four and epic. And n Stop three was SPAIN, just us four and epic. And now I promise to move on to present day ☺️
Tiny bottles of ice cold Fanta, cuddling warm bread while walking each morning, eating too big helado while walking each evening, so many gorgeous hiking trails, our octogenarian BFFs who brought regalitos, Wooch and I drinking espressos, playing cards on the Rio Cerezuelo, jumping in the pool every morning, Yoshitomo Nara at the Guggenheim, watching the Olympics in Spanish, popsicles at the Alhambra, painted trail markers, nightlife on the Plaza del Sol, drool-worthy tile work, hello Gaudi, the sounds of water in Cazorla, adjusting our circadian rhythm to eat at 10:00pm and sleep at 2:00am, shopping for our groceries daily, soda in the purron, canyoning with the kindest locals, melocotons and churros, paddle ball, body surfing, long days reading and walking and talking, this mama’s dream with her little fam. I would push rewind and do it all again in a heartbeat.
Stop two was MAINE. Yes, I’m still revisiting su Stop two was MAINE. Yes, I’m still revisiting summer in October.
Clear, crisp lake water, cousins playing past dark, fishing and swimming on repeat, red snapper hot dogs, s’mores by the fire, jumping off Gumdrop Rock, mom swimming, dad kayaking, coffee on the deck, noodle battles, king of the blue floating thingy, reading next to everyone else reading, crammed together for late night movies, stomach cramps from laughing while tubing, wakeboarding feats, paddle boarding, swimming across the lake, bare feet, wet towels hanging everywhere, sun-kissed cheeks, Rummikub, long summer days, pure family joy, and I’m grateful for all these little moments 🩵
