Mystical Volcano

Mt Ranier has many moods...capturing its beauty has been a passion for me since I moved to Seattle. I have taken numerous photographs in the past few years, however this is my personal favorite. I love how mystical Ranier looks here.....the magic, the beauty and the mystery of this volcano which dominates the skyline on clear days.

I bundle up the kids in the car as soon as I get a glimpse of Ranier and cross the lake to photograph it. My family thinks I am obsessed and I think they may be right :-) Have a magical Sunday and see you next week.

My Special room

I have to let you into a little secret....this is the most comfortable room in our house but not always the tidiest. It looks like this, after I have picked up the endless toys that my two toddlers leave around:-) Its is my favorite part of the house. We practically spend every waking moment right here. From TV time, playing, studying, eating, my blogging and all the laughter, yelling and screaming, both the good and bad, it all happens here:-)
My mom sent me this painting from India and its the focal point of my family room.

The breakfast nook on the other side of the room is our multipurpose room. Seattle is cold and dreary eight months in the year. However this area gets a lot of light when the sun shines. Hence, I love it.

Its also a place for memories......family pictures are everywhere, like my wedding picture here.

I am linking with a fabulous blog, Poppies at Play where I get to visit some gorgeous homes !!
