The weekend we took these pictures, we had no particular destination in mind. Surrendering to wanderlust, we headed to Richmond, our default destination for adventure. Eventually, we settled on the Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden named after one of Richmond’s beloved citizens. (more…)
Back in early December, my dad sent me, my mom, brother, and sister separate emails with the following question:
“Who in our family is the most excited by, desirous of, jazzed over toys?”
Our response was unanimous: MOM!
Yes, even Mom said, “Mom.” 😉 (more…)
Is it just me or are you still scrambling to get “everything” done before Christmas? Time always escapes me this time of year, but even more so this year! With only 4 days left until Christmas, I’ve yet to send out Christmas cards. (more…)
Visiting Civil War battlefields is a pastime my dad and I share. So, anytime we can combine a visit with a photo shoot makes for a lively afternoon. This shoot took place at the Petersburg National Battlefield. It was here approximately 152 years ago that Union General Ulysses S. Grant lay siege to Petersburg in a successful attempt to destroy Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s army. General Grant understood that devastating the Confederate’s main supply line at Petersburg would eventually secure the fall of Richmond, the Confederate capital. (more…)
My Forever BFF, Tammy, LOVES animals. I love animals too…from a distance. 😉
Tammy befriends animals wherever she goes! This cat was her buddy during our stay in Savannah.
The weekend we took these pics, my dad was dealing with a bad cold. He did not let on how sick he was until we were on our way to Western Maryland for this photo shoot. I felt awful and suggested we cancel the shoot, but my dad said he took medicine and was feeling better. So, we headed to Sideling Hill Road Cut (aka The Cut). (more…)
Last Saturday, I got to spend time with my Godson, Andrew, and niece, Kristin. On their way to the beach, my brother and his family took a break from their drive for some family time. The kids were excited too about a slumber party with Aunt Lizzy. 🙂 (more…)
I am a girly-girl at heart. So, I could not help, but fall in love with these fringe lace ups by Steve Madden. They are the epitome of sexy! The flirty fringe at the toe strap is so playful that I found myself stretching my legs in a dramatic walk to catch a glimpse of the ever so subtle swoosh of the fringe. 😉 What adds glamour to this sandal is the approximately 4.25 inch heel (pretty high even for me) and the ankle strap lace ups. I love the tassel detail at the end of the lace ups too. It adds such a nice touch to this gorgeous heel. (more…)
In less than two weeks, my BFF, Tammy, and I will be on our way to Savannah, GA! Hard to believe, but Tammy has never been to the East Coast or the South. Her biggest anxiety is the thought of mosquitoes eating her alive because she is very prone to getting bit. We always joke she has sweet blood! 😉 I told her not to worry because I will bring the bug spray. 🙂
