Two years ago today the Boy and I eloped down at city hall. It was one of the coldest days in years. It was filled with laughter and friends. It is his goal to make me laugh everyday. I think he comes pretty close. This photo was taken by my sister-in-law at the family ceremony months later. It has been a wonderful experience folding new people into my life. I never thought when I married the Boy about the family I would be joining or that he would be joining mine. I know silly.

I was able to see the holiday windows at Harry Winston (yes that Harry Winston), to see the amazing glasswork by Andy. I shouldn’t even say work, because really it is art.
His pieces are so amazing it literally takes my breath away.

You really should stop reading this and go and check out his site!

No Really.

Last fall the Boy and I took a long weekend up to Vermont. It was lovely and beautiful. It was really cold so we would wake up early, which was great otherwise I never would have these wonderful shots of the steam rising off the lake.

This little guy came with me to the studio and like all the little kids that visit he was in his own personal jungle gym.
He climbed on the area where we store our really long backdrops.

He chilled on the ladder.

But mostly he just sat and watched us work in the studio.

I think all in all it was a good day.

(a note of interest, Friedrich loves that he shares the same name as the oldest boy in Sound of Music, his most favorite movie of all time)

Did a major cleaning this weekend. When I was in California I went through old magazines and donated a bunch to the local library. It is so freeing to let go. That is going to be my mantra this year. Johanna is making the move back west, which means I am moving into more of a painting role and we are getting a new person at work to take over my dealing with people part of the job. I am excited and very nervous at the same time. When I started the job it was a mess and I have created something that I am proud of and it is scary to walk away even if I am walking towards something I want. Maybe even more because I am walking towards something I want. This picture sums up the frame of mind I have right now, but I am starting to feel more grounded and getting ready to let go. I find it starts with magazines. I have some 'HOW' magazine issues if anyone is interested.
