Footloose + Fancy Free

I'd like to start my hibernation any day now, seeing as it's January in Boston and all -happy new year, btw-, yet the erratic 50degree days have been pulling me outside! No complaints, really, especially since I managed to sneak my camera into the playground one day while Ava was too busy having fun to care! I couldn't help myself. Radio Flyer bike in tow, carefree air clouding her head, and a willing momma to chase her everywhere she so desires, "today... today was a good day."

We were the first ones at the skate park. Then a slew of kids came around. Then there was a taker who caught wind of Ava's free will up a hill. Catching a second round at the park, it got a little crowded for her taste, so back to the field she goes to keep herself -well, me- engaged for a bit. Gravity had no hold on this one that day. I swear, I could almost see wings on her happiness. <3 S

Jennie & Jeff {Engaged} Boston MA

Jennie and Jeff complement each other in every way. She's quirky. He's laid back. They've spent most of their time laughing and pulling pranks. Since the day they met. Like partners in crime, if you will. ;) I recently got an exclusive tour of their North End neighborhood on a perfect Autumn Sunday... the epitome of New England... and this is what they had to show me.

Thank you, Jeff and Jennie, for letting me into your bubble-o-weird! I'm very much looking forward to your Southern New England wedding next year, and if your guests are anything like you, awesome, then my day will be made! ♥Shanti

I give her all my love

That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
I love her
