The Nest In Our Souls


My trip into the bathroom this morning.


Our Soulful Nest.  Stud Walls and all!


My honey building the frame for the new living room window.



As you may have gathered, our home is currently under construction. My husband Spencer's construction company Spencer Dobrovolny Construction is doing the work for the owners of the house. This is my first hands off project as we had been designing and renovating together in Illinois. It is amazing to me how after all of these years renovating I continue to learn and deepen my awareness around what a "Soulful Nest" means to me. I love the wonderful soulful moments in the midst of the chaos. Like last night when I was sitting on the couch with my honey, exposed stud walls all around... all was calm and peaceful. No rubble falling from above. Nail guns unplugged. And there we sat with a soulful energy all around us. While a peaceful, settled exterior environment is a top priority in my life...renovating homes has taught me the importance of feathering my nest within. After all, that's the only nest I can take with me wherever I may roam...
