Oh, gosh - this will never be my habit!!

I am in such a creative lull right now that I hesitate to post.

I did help my daughter create a beautiful event a couple of months ago. Here is the link to her amazing photos: http://rachelrobinson.zenfolio.com/amyandpaul/e24f9f5e4

Oh, wait - you want to go here:http://rachelrobinson.zenfolio.com/amyandpaul

The other was Darcy the Idiot. We all love and adore her, but really - it wasn't her day then was it.

A word about the photographer - Rachel Robinson was the most amazing to work with, and then she up and moved to Houston!! She was like a shower of peace and calm in the middle of all that was going on and she took such phenom photos! And she took so MANY photos! Wow, I think Amy and Paul are about the best looking couple around - but by photo 372 I was waning. What kind of mother am I ? But here is the beauty of our photographic hero Rachel - SHE PUTS THE ALBUM TOGETHER FOR YOU! You can weigh in with favorites you must have, but the overwhelming responsibility of choosing - I could never handle it. So, she is my favorite photographer ever -

The glorious weekend

Ah, the weekend here and I am full of the goodness of slow mornings to read and packing a valentine package for my little college girl. I am in zero-creativity mode, so I have nothing festive to share that way BUT I do have about the best post I have seen in a long time link for you. My new favorite blog-dog Charlie finds purpose in life!

Of course NO DOG can replace the the idiot Darcy as my favorite dog, but Charlie is such an inspiration. You must camp out on his master's website thepioneerwoman.com and stroll around her excellent cooking advice (do you chuckle as you read recipes? you will here) and my favorite, confessions. Search for the one about Charlie and the yellow string. I mean really.

The big tie-in, we are studying in earnest Crazy Love by Francis Chan - all in all, about purpose in life. I found Charlie's philosophy of purpose profound. Get off the ottoman and do something!

I am a new (not nude, new) woman.

New year, new Bible Study and new empty nest. I can do this now. I will keep up, I will be a good blogger and I will - most importantly - make sure you have good blogs to go to as I list my favorites at the right. Remember, I have no original thoughts, but I am a great connector to genius whether creative or intellectual. I will post pictures of my little Amy Lou's wedding when we get them from the photographer. Who doesn't want to see that? And while the wedding was NOT about me, I kind of had a nifty dress I would like you all to see! Peek back. . .

Can't do it without a picture for you. This was a house in downtown Philadelphia. I mean look at the color, look at the plants, look at the festivalness of it all. I want to live there.
