followed by BIRTHDAY CAKE. yesterday happened to be my birthday, and my husband made me this sublime chocolate cake from scratch . . . mmmmmmmmm.

jw, wilma, and i are leaving tomorrow for our month-of-september honeymoon. we are heading to new england and nova scotia. where a better place to celebrate fall AND a new life together ? i look forward to a much needed slower pace and no deadlines in sight . . . . the last few months have been seriously nutty. i believe that four weeks of freedom and fun and relaxation is JUST what the doctor ordered. so bon voyage.

1 . . 2 . . 3 . . . say "cheese."

we hired the MOST amazing photographer i could have ever hoped for . . . my hero, brooke buchanan. for i am EXTREMELY camera shy. i despise having my picture taken. i NEVER like the way i look. but somehow i really loved what brooke did (she obviously has some magical photo-shop-airbrushing-lens filtering tricks up her sleeves).

but not only are her camera abilities top notch, she has the MOST down to earth easy to work with personality imaginable. she was such a treat to work with. many of my friends and family want to get married again JUST so brooke can photograph their wedding. her photos are so enchanting and poignant and they truly capture the moment. she seriously is amazing.

the two things i now swear by:

1. burt’s bees foot creme.

2. brooke buchanan photography.
