Breathtaking cityscape

I just discovered the amazing web invention known as www.stumbleupon.com and am thoroughly impressed with the pages I've "stumbled upon" so far. Because this blog is all about the beautiful things I come across during each day I've included a link to a website I found that shows a time lapse photo of downtown Toronto. As you move your mouse around over the image it alters the image to show the cityscape throughout the progression of the day and then after sundown. It is simply gorgeous how the light plays off the buildings at different times during the day. Trust me, you'll want to check this out:

Adorable guest room

I am in love with the decor in this bedroom! It would be perfect for the guest room in the house Matt and I are trying to buy. I can just imagine having out-of-town family and friends over to spend the weekend in this gorgeous room. What do you think?

A spot-on sentiment

“Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.” –Emily Bronte

I found this quote when scanning the internet today during another installment of unemployed boredom. However, this quote brought a smile to my face and brightened the day. It is always amazing to me when I see a quote that is absolutely spot-on for something I’ve tried unsuccessfully to describe so many times myself. I give full props to Emily Bronte for her amazing way with words and the ability she had to express love in the written language. This ability to put emotion into words is something that has constantly failed me for years. Way to go Miss Bronte!

In love with lovebirds

While on Etsy.com earlier I noticed an abundance of lovebirds. They were everywhere! Adorable little birds cuddled up, overflowing with love for each other. I've included some of my favorites below:
