February of this year 2025 a mudslide from improper drainage at a major construction site @altairtemecula behind our property caused severe damage to our small family home.  The developer @brookfieldsocal admitted fault to us, to the city @cityoftemecula and to a local restoration company.  They said they would pay out of pocket for all damages and repairs.  A estimate was proposed, reviewed and approved by them, then the bills have been stacking up all year long.  We have submitted invoices, photos, videos of damages, calls, they have sent an expert to review the estimates.  I still have not met the supervisor who works behind our home.  We don’t have access to our clothes (that my growing children likely no longer fit), linens, blankets, towels.  We have been paying for our furniture to be stored on our property, while we pay our mortgage on an uninhabitable home.  Not one bill has been paid, nor was a single dollar offered to house our family.  We are deeply thankful for the generosity of family whom we have lived with since the sudden incident.  We love this city.  My family is fourth generation Temecula residents.  I included my grandmother’s Temecula school photo from 1943.  We plan to continue to stay, serve and invest in community here.  We believe in radical forgiveness and are excited to welcome many new neighbors because of this project.  We simply don’t believe businesses should be allowed to operate like this.  @brookfieldsocal We are asking you to stop being negligent and restore what was damaged by your oversight.  You said you would, now is the time to follow through.  I forgive you and I believe in hospitality in the way of Jesus.  Please repair my kitchen so I can make dinner for you.

an Arizona flat lay 🍊 | getting to experience a place for the first time is one of my favorite things about being a human. I find myself being drawn to color, texture, and other sensory details to collect information as I get acquainted with a new landscape. I also love to watch locals interact with their environment: how they instinctively know how far to walk from the cacti or how their eyes gravitate toward the sunset each night. 

as I spent a few days getting to know the desert landscape, I found myself growing more confident in my interactions with the environment as well: grabbing an extra layer at dusk, knowing where to find the new plants I'd seen elsewhere, and looking to the skyline for comfort in the rocky silhouette. 

these foraged findings informed the desert-inspired colors to try to replicate. oranges from the trees that lined every street, blues from the skies and cyanotypes, fuchsia from that one bush that drew me in close to inspect it, browns for the rocks and palm barks. connecting with nature in this way brings new ways to participate in careful observation. I'm so grateful I got to spend some time among the saguaros and eucalyptus trees. their energy will carry me through the next few weeks of winter. may they serve as a reminder to step outside and try to see things for the first time, too. 🌿🧡✨
