A whole lotta spinning goin' on...
My Fair Lady...
Capturing all those delicate details on your wedding day are so important. Years will go by and the little things that meant so much to you on your day can sometimes be forgotten until you pull out those pictures again and relive the day all over again. Make sure, whoever your photographer is, that they document all your precious little details.

For the longest time, two dark and sort of creepy painted portraits of my ancestors hung on the walls of my Grandmother's house in Rye, NY. The painted portraits had been passed down the family line, linked to my Grandmother's vague recollection of her family, only remembering snippits of information from an aunt and uncle after her parents had passed on at an early age. My Father has been tracking our family lineage over the years and with the help of ancestors.com continues to put the pieces together.
Here are a few pix from one of his latest finds...
These are actually the grave stones of the two ancestors in the painted portraits and other immediate family members, buried in Hudson, NY.
Just got back from a really fantastic trip to New York, where I got to spend a wonderful Father's Day with my Dad & sister! Here are a few pictures from our Father's Day Kayaking Adventure on the Hudson River in Cold Spring, NY. Anyone visiting New York shouldn't miss taking the train up the Hudson to Cold Spring. It lets you off right downtown. The views are gorgeous. Tons of hiking trails. Kayaking. Shopping. Antique shops galore!
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DAD!!!
CAUTION: DUCK CROSSING!!!
"COUPLES KAYAKING"
My sister & boyfriend.
LOVE THIS SHOT!!
My amazing dog Brookelynne passed on this past Friday. She has brought me the most incredible joy over the last 13 years. She's been a part of my life since I came home from my first year at college. Although I am so saddened by the idea that I cannot hold her tight and kiss her sweet face, I know that she is with me in spirit. I can hear her barking and see her free as a bird soaring after her beloved tennis balls. When I look at her life I can't see loss. Because what she gave me I can never lose.
I LOVE YOU, MY DEAR SWEET BROOKELYNNE!
YOU ARE FOREVER IN MY HEART! AND I HOPE AND PRAY THAT ONE DAY OUR PATHS WILL CROSS AGAIN!
