step away.
Last week I had the huge privilege of going to El Paso with Chris and Noonday and shooting the 2014 Lookbook. They hired Chris as the photographer for the shoot and me and two other girls wore their amazing items for the photos. They didn’t ask me to post a thing about my time there but it was such a fun trip that I couldn’t not share a few photos! Not only is everyone amazing but their hearts, their mission, what they are doing– it all is incredible.
I love working with companies like this. I love knowing that it is helping, it stands for something amazing.
Chris and I drove out to El Paso together (it is about a ten hour drive) and it was such a breath of fresh air. A nice time to connect, talk, listen to music, be quiet….it was lovely. I always think Chris and I are such a great team so it was fun to be hired for something together:).
Things over here have honestly been a bit heavy recently, we have a lot happening and a lot of big decisions that are needing to be made fairly quickly. My anxiety is wacky lately and besides missing my babies like crazy, it was just overall a really nice time to step away to for a few days. Nature is completely a love language for me, being amidst God’s incredible creation is just breathtaking and has such a way of drawing me in close.
I loved this quote that the Noonday girls posted the other day so I will leave you with it, “We keep wanting to know the will of God without realizing it is knitted into the fabric of our being.”
SO beautiful Case! Just like you! I am sorry for the heavy stuff…I have similar "heaviness" about big decisions for our future, lately..praying for you…maybe someday we can pray in real life together! xoxoxoxo
it is always a good reminder… because your photos are always something right out of a fashion magazine…I mean, really extraordinary… and it is tempting for me to look, and compare, and because of what I see on the surface I can easily walk away thinking, "what could SHE possibly be worried about? Look at her! Her life! It is picture perfect!"
But it is not about the image. It is about US create in HIS image. And how no matter what we see on the outside, we always need to be mindful of the soul on the inside…the one who may be anxious or aching or dying…
Praying that you give your worries to God and that you find the peace of knowing that He has you in the palm of His hand.
ps that painting of Our Lady of Guadalupe! I want that on my wall!!!
love that you are going to be in the next catalog! I've followed you for such a long time, you even wore one of my Laceymade scarves a while back…but I am a Noonday Ambassador so my little worlds kind of collided when you teamed up with Noonday. 🙂
So excited you are going to be in the next catalog! I have followed you for years, you even wore one of my Laceymade scarves a while back…..but I am a Noonday Ambassador so when you teamed up with them, two of my favorite things came together. 🙂
My sweet friend, Tiffany Wade, was on that shoot! I'm so jealous that she got to meet you in real life. I can't wait to see the collection; I love Noonday.
Hey Casey, you are such a beautiful woman also have a beautiful little family! I love your Blog so much, you are a big inspiration to me. Not only in blogging also in life especially with my kids! Thanks for sharing and being such an inspiration!
These photos are beautiful! I've never been to El Paso, so I'm blown away by the rugged beauty of the landscape. Also I hadn't heard of Noonday before this, so I'm excited to now check it out!
Thank you for being a constant inspiration to me through the way you live your life and how you are always able to bring things back to your core faith. When I begin a family one day I hope I can follow in your example. I look forward to continue reading your blog!
