It’s been a week of “and then’s”. And then J got a sinus infection. And then we went camping. And then we drove to Chicago. And then I got a sinus infection. And then I documented one of the most beautiful weddings EVER for two people I adore, some UNBELIEVABLE couples and two ever-so-precious-I’ve-never-laughed-so-hard-in-my-life families. […]

We’re still on the road and we hit a little internet-free patch. But we’re still here. Laughing.  “Accidentally” swimming.  Smiling.  Hugging.  And for the past few days, documenting people who have my heart.  (And for all of you that have been waiting, Gianna and Ryan did get married this past Saturday, it was BEAUTIFUL, joyous […]

Let’s just say I love them.  (and their mommy?  Oh my goodness…  Don’t even get me started because I’ll go on for DAYS.) Here’s a little sneak peek of two of my favorite girls in the DC area: PS: Cheryl and Lala…can you please be there next time?  I missed you SO much.  Or come […]

Yesterday I heard a ding. I checked my phone.  It was Ted. I read the words twice to make sure I wasn’t mistaken.  I wasn’t. “Can you grab the beach towel?  The kids accidentally went swimming.” I laughed.  And grabbed my camera, the beach towel and thanked God for moments like these:    

I’m out of order.  Big time.  But due to lack of sleep, I’m going to ask that we all forgive me.  Thanks… On day 4 of our epic road trip, we ventured out into the heart of DC.  We had two MUST DO items on our list.  Hannah had been talking about seeing “Barack Obama’s […]

So…it’s day 9.  We’re still alive.  This is good. There are so many stories to tell, so many pictures and so many memories we’ve been blessed to make. BUT…we’re also exhausted. So tonight, here are some pictures from our drive through Baltimore on our way to New York City.  We stopped by the harbor for […]

    the luxury of playing in a bathtub was his FAVORITE.    Oh this road.  Three of us suffered car-sickness, one actually threw up and our brakes billowed smoke getting down from the mountain.  Oh the stories this road held for us…   We all felt this way in the car at some point.  […]

There’s no turning back. Both Ted and I considered it after our kids decided not to sleep the past two nights. However – today as we left DC, we knew we’re in. How’s it going? Great.  Beautiful.  Life-giving.  So much fun.  Memory-filled.  Hilarious. And then there are those moments that I just wish we could […]

Today…   My kids finally fell asleep about 25 minutes ago.  It’s 11:30 pm. We started out on the Blue Ridge Parkway.  It was beautiful. We stopped and had a picnic lunch at one of the overlooks and continued to work our way through the mountains. Our little lady turned pale.  We put her in […]

I got in the van with tears in my eyes. It’s been a whirlwind for the past month.  My little lady finished kindergarten.  Ted and I celebrated our 8th anniversary.  We launched the new website that I’ve poured myself into this past year.  I drove back to a place I used to live that I […]
