A Creative Metamorphosis: The Chrysalis Stage

You may have noticed that things have been quiet here at Adventures of a Rainbow Mama over the past few weeks...

I've gone into my Chrysalis Stage. I'm all Pupa; working on my metamorphosis. 

Learning. 
Thinking. 
Dreaming. 
Planning.

Piling my favourite books together and seeking creative inspiration. Asking the big questions. Seeking wisdom. Doing the hard work. And in doing so - recognising that to truly give myself to the creative process I have to release. Let go. Be. And so I am...

You might still find me chattering away on fb, twitter or instagram but the Rainbow Mama blog is going to be quiet over the next little while. My 365 project included. But, hang in there! I think you are going to love what I'm working on... and I can't wait to share it with you; you crazy, beautiful people. Thank you for believing in the adventures thus far. It means so much to me.

Lots and lots of love,
Amber. XO

257/365 Instagram Days

Here is a peek at what my week has been looking like { on instagram - where I've been a bit busier than I have here! }. 

Are you on instagram? Are we insta-friends yet?

253/365 Byron Tears

Looking from Clarkes Beach back to Main Beach. Byron Bay. 

11am this morning. 

Reflecting on the past few days... It is just so so so very beautiful. And so hard to correlate the surroundings and the story; with the knowledge that someone lost their life in such a tragic way in a place so pure and perfect. Feeling the sadness. And the awe. Mother nature is bigger than all of us. x

252/365 Spring is Officially Here When My Garden Is Full of Jasmine

How I love the smell of Jasmine drifting through the warm air! Spring is here.
La-la-la-la-love it. Makes me so happy.

Which flowers make you the happiest?

253/365 Capturing Simple Sweet Moments

5:30pm | Home.

My nephew doing his homework on the lounge. His cousins { my boys } to his right. The dog sauntering through the shot. Yup, life. I love when my family is around.

250/365 Sunset Paradise

Sunset | Northern New South Wales. Australia.

{ Every time I drive past these canefields at sunset I have to pull the car over. Nature's beauty never ceases to blow my freaking mind. }

Where are your favourite sunsets found?

It's The Day Of The Dad!

Photo taken at Guzman y Gomez in Brisbane on Friday night { cute promotion right?! }

We're spending Father's Day at home this year WHICH IS SUPER LOVELY because life has been too busy recently. Both boys made cards and little presents for T {nawwww #myfullheart } at school and Scouts. I cooked a big breakfast and made a Sago Pudding for morning tea - that we are about to eat! YAY! We are savouring da' simple pleasures.

Yesterday I went and saw the film The Hundred-Foot Journey { T took the boys to Guardians of the Galaxy, and I wasn't sure I could quite handle sitting through it ;) } and it was SUCH a freaking great film. I laughed and cried the whole way through... and know that my kids would have enjoyed it too. So, I might drag everyone back to the cinema today - okay, not exactly DRAG { we are a family of movie-aficionados here!! } but I highly recommend it. It's all about family and good food; the true joys of life. Go and see it people!

What are your Father's Day traditions?
