  • My happy Valentines.

    Pretend these two aren’t sitting in the middle of our glass coffee table (strictly off limits).  Precious moments first, safety second. I look at my husband and our two happy Valentines and I could just gush about how I love them so.  On and on.…

  • Happy Thanksgiving

    After traveling north to spend time with Nick’s family and south to see my family, and further south still, we’re tucked in at the Cape, feeling full… and full of gratitude.  I’m lucky (and yes, #blessed) in so many ways, and grateful for them all.  …
