Scott and Elizabeth

The most happiest of happy wishes go out to Scott and Elizabeth who were married on August 23. I have many many more photos to share of the wedding (I took nearly 500 between the rehearsal and the wedding itself). My husband and Scott have known each other for twenty-three years, beginning at age six. We are blessed to have so many strong young marriages in our circle of friends, may this latest be another.

There and Back Again

We recently drove to California (and back!) We've been back home for two weeks and I've written nary a word here on the blog about the trip. I'm slowly processing the nearly 1100 photos I took. Until I finish that I'm going to hold off on the blog recap. Instead, here's an adorable photo of the cat.

Yawning cat.

In related news, it's been so hot here that we decided to seek respite from the oppressive heat in our apartment but felt bad leaving the cat home (it was cool enough that she was not in danger). Instead of leaving her, we harnessed her, hooked on the leash and headed out. We took her carrier in case she freaked out but she took it in stride, sitting on my lap--purring and watching out the windows. We saw several crows, two donkeys and what appeared to be a yearling buck deer. We grabbed coffee via the Starbucks drive through and really surprised the girl working the window. Guess it's not every day you see a cat riding in the car.

Days With My Father

Earlier, while sifting through the tubes with stumbleupon, I came across the poignant and beautiful Days With My Father.

Through brilliant photography, Phillip Toledano, has chronicled his love for his 98 year old father, who has lost his short term memory. His other work is equally intriguing, and I hope you'll all take a peep.
