#welcometoboise

[paintandletters-blog]

I spent the morning in #downtownboise with some friends wandering the #boisefarmersmarket we enjoyed some delicious street food and watched the citizenship ceremony. It was so cool to see so many awesome organizations supporting refugees. My husband and I were inspired to look into volunteering to teach English and computer skills with one local organization. Boise was named the most welcoming community in the country. That just shows one of the many reasons why I love it here and am so glad we live here now. It's becoming more diverse every day. I've always loved and appreciated diversity. I have a hard time choosing favorites of anything. Favorite movies, favorite books, favorite colors, I just love a lot for different reasons! I love a lot of people and appreciate the cultures, personalities, and traditions we all share and bring together. As part of this amazing community on Instagram I am often reminded of the diversity we have. From where people live to the art they create. Each of you are unique, and individual, but we are also part of this amazing group that better each other with our contributions. I'm encouraged by each of you and I just wanted to take a moment out of this day to tell you that! Sorry for the long ramble! . . . #diversity #pridemonth #boisepride #boiserefugeeswelcome #culturaldiversity #welcometoboise #lovethiscommunity #communityovercompetition #paintandletters #paintallthecolors #loveeveryone #celebratediversity #boiseartist #boisehandmade #handmadewatercolors #pigment #artisnalwatercolor #handmadepaint (at Boise Farmers Market)
