Single and Childless

September 29, 2009

I had an amazing day yesterday… not because I am all in love and stuff (although that made it nice too) but because I got to see two of my best single and childless girlfriends. And now I’m wondering what or who I would be without them in my life. First, there’s Alison… (who is [...]

Beauty

September 20, 2009

A few things happened this weekend that I will remember for the rest of my life… Lesson #1: Never leave home without your camera I realized one hour into my drive to Katie and Brian’s wedding, six hours away from home, that I had forgotten my camera.

Boxed in…

September 17, 2009

Bikini Wearing Waitresses

September 16, 2009

This weekend I am driving up to Michigan for my best friend’s wedding.
