It’s a day late, but…excuses. For our Saturday edition of TBotW, here’s the Baja Fairy Duster.
Isn’t that name so perfect? Slightly exotic and dainty at the same time…just like these flowers.
I shot these ones at the library too. They just have such good landscaping there! Plus, like I said before, I don’t care that much anymore if people think I’m a weirdo for taking photos of plants on my phone while my kids play in the rocks.
See that little bee hiding up there? They were everywhere. Evidently the fairy duster is a favorite among the pollenphiles.

And that saguaro hiding in the background? So perfect. (This shot was much better, by the way.) Sometimes I really dig the desert.

I love this honest (but slightly tongue-in-cheek) post by Alicia. And if you didn’t read her interview during Marriage Month, you should. It’s a good one.
I’m also digging Deidre’s Fashion Fits Everyone series. Her most recent post is a good introduction to the series, and a great reminder that we can–and should!–feel confident and beautiful just the way you are.
Which reminds me: if you haven’t seen this cover of “All About That Bass” you are seriously missing out. Her voice is flawless. And every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top. 🙂
Most of my family came down to visit the Phoenix LDS temple yesterday. It’s breathtaking. If you are local and haven’t had a chance to see it, you should go. The open house is free and runs through mid-November. I’d say it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but since we had the Gilbert temple open house earlier this year and will have one in Tucson in the not-too-distant future, so…what can I say? We’re spoiled. And so so blessed.
After the temple, we hit up Tolmachoff Farms to play and pick out a pumpkin. The kiddos had so much fun! For those of you in the west valley, I highly recommend it. Does anyone on the east side want to go to Vertuccio Farms with us so we can compare?
Hope you’re all having a beautiful weekend!
