Their outdoor wedding was just the perfect setting for their friends and family to gather with them to share in this special day.
These are the gorgeous and tasteful DIY herb centerpieces that graced their tables and doubled as wedding favours for guests. I love the colour scheme of these earthy colours - chocolate brown and sage green.

This year, spring came sooner than we all expected. We are soaking in a good dose of the sunshine with the days getting longer and life beginning to sprout up all around. We've planted a couple of herbs and some paperwhites. The fact that they are still green makes me happy as I recall my childhood memories of watering my mom's plants and never knowing how much water is enough (yes, they were either dying of thirst or had too much!)
These made me smile today:
We want to wish all new things to begin in your lives this season.
Happy first day of spring!

With the best wishes
J: No, i didn't know that spring is your new year celebration time! Thanks for sharing, I think it makes a lot of sense and wish we celebrate the new year at spring time too. Many happy blessings this new year!

- an Altoids box (curiously strong?)
- and a soldering iron. (Mary got me this one for Christmas to satisfy my inner-geek)

(03.29.09 @ 12:10 AM)We always are so blessed to meet the nicest people -- and Alania and Brett are no exception. Hanging out with them was like hanging out with old friends. We love their chemistry and how supportive they are of each other despite all they have been through.
Here are some faves from their session:
Sam took this shot of me intently working...
Here is the shot from my camera:
A&B: It was totally worth getting up early! Thanks for hanging out with us and keeping it cool. You two make it look too easy and we couldn't be happier to see you begin this next chapter together.

Mary ( & Sam)

Thanks J & B: Glad you liked them, graffiti walls are an art in themselves and always fun to find. They make for great shots!
(03.24.09 @ 05:12 PM)Working from home has it's advantages, but sometimes it's good to step outside of the home office and soak in a new environment. For us, that means packing up (no, we don't travel light anymore!) and head to the local coffee shop. It's a good chance to meet new friends, listen to good music, and have a hot drink --all the while working on stuff that we've been putting off. It's amazing all the small tasks that can be completed in a couple of hours. Of course, it makes them all the more fun and enjoyable.
This is us at Starbucks:
(Here I am fiercely concentrating... not sure where I inherited my furrowed brow! :)
Happy Tuesday!
