Greetings!

I took the photo to the right last weekend - looks like summer right? Well this morning we woke up to an inch and a half of snow! Sigh. Oh well - it will melt soon and we'll be back to warmer temps!

It's been SO glorious to be able to be outside more lately without bundling up and I've been taking long walks with Norah and the doggies daily - good for all of us! We moved Norah out of her bedroom and into her nursery a few weeks ago and I have to say we're all sleeping better! It's also been nice to see green things popping up in the garden (let's hope this snow doesn't hurt them) and in no time at all it will be time to plant our veggies - summer is coming.

My first wedding is this weekend and the next few months are shaping up to be full work wise which is a good thing!

Read on and have a great week!

I love photographing former wedding client's growing families - little newborn Dane was SO sweet and made me nostalgic for a littler Norah!!
Our close friends welcomed their first son Ezra and we went down to Boston last month to meet him -cuteness - another new bud for Norah!
I did my first ever bridal show at the Mountaintop!

RECOMMENDATIONS

school-of-essential-ingredients

Now that Norah is sleeping in her nursery at night I've been able to get back to one of my most favorite things - reading in bed curled up with the doggies. Many more books to come hopefully!

I really enjoyed The School of Essential Ingredients - each chapter features a different character - nice little vignettes and always yummy to read about food!
The Time Between is by an author I've read a lot before - easy absorbing reads....a good thing these days!
Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet was another good read -historical fiction with a lovely story and interesting characters
A SUPER easy baked chicken recipe - tasty!
A friend brought us this delicious Chicken Marbella recipe when Norah was born - YUMMO.
