My name is Colleen.
I love taking my time and finding beauty and humour in things before they happen - as in seeds and salamanders.
"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."
C.S. Lewis - Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold
"Look, it's not in my nature to be mysterious. But I can't talk about it and I can't talk about why."

Did you have a trampoline?? HOw did you jump so high? Awesome pics! I really admire how you live life fully:)
These pics make me laugh (with joy and intrigue)! Clara
I love the third picture. It literally looks like you're floating in mid air. Very cool.
It seems like you always have so much fun, wherever you go. We should totally hang out sometime in this life. :)
I guess I arrived at your blog late... the pictures are not showing :(
I had the same problem on my blog this morning.
yay, I can see them now!!
SO fun!
Hey Kelly! I have Go-Go Gadget legs, you didn't know?
No I don't.
Just a trick of the camera.
I should blog about the times I don't live life so fully. Like that time I just sat on my derriere for hours on end. Oh wait. Wasn't that SEVERAL TIMES THIS WEEK? :)
Hi Clara! I'm glad they made you happy. :D I was extremely joyous whilst we were taking the photos. The only reason we stopped taking them is because it was getting too dark. We could've gone on for a while longer.
Hi Sonya! I do like to have fun, it's true. But I'm kind of a secret ham. To be silly on demand ... well let's just say my claws come out and my heels dig in. Then I sit for a loooooong time. And then I finally go out and blow bubbles and wish for something silly to happy. I'm kinda sporadic. But I feel silliness inside of me almost constantly. And you know, it would be GREAT to hang out on earth at some point. I would LOVE it. I'm sorry I missed you when I went through Abby. :(
Kori-Bean! (Yes, you've been bean-ed. How do you feel?) My dumb pictures! I contacted Blogger but never heard back from them so I just downloaded them all over again. Took things into my own two paws.
And yes, we were having a GRAND old time. :)
Hey, Colleen! You guys might put Michael Jordan to shame with that kind of air! Looks like lots of fun. Sigh. Wish I coulda been there.
Glad you're back!
oh goodness those are such great pictures!
love them
:)
Talena - oh yeah, Michael Jordan has nothing on me. Pah! And yup! We were having fun. I could've gone on for much longer had the sun not been rude and decided to set on us. Thlbppp!
Hello Emily Ruth! Thanks! I'm glad they make you smile like they do me. :D
I love these pictures! Jumping for joy on the shore, how fun!
FUDGE!!!
I love you. :D
You could have had a career in the WNBA. What fun pictures.
I've often thought that myself. I would have been the best basketball player ALIVE.
Love, love, love these pictures!!!
They make me smile everytime I look at them, Mindy. It makes me wish I was out on the beach this very moment jumping to my heart's content so I'm glad you love them, too.
any questions?
