vintage valentine's day cards

with valentine's day right around the corner i wanted to share a couple cards from my collection

1. a valentine my mom gave her grandparents

2. a die cut valentine that was given to my grandpa from his teacher

3. still friends with her after all these years

4. i love seeing my mom's hand writing from when she was a child 

and the sweet little illustration she included

5. my mom had a very special relationship with her grandma

warms my heart to see this note

something i read, ate and created

very deep and meaningful 

 - hollywood news from across the pond -

it's a daily read for me!

i had a weekend that filled my cup right up . . .

 the Hudson Hot Air Affair parade

stood with some great friends laughing and cheering

(right in front of the porn shop . . . which makes me giggle that we even have a porn store in hudson)

Good News | Bad News

The bad news: I lost my phone and had to buy a new one

The good news: a new phone case was in my future!

Remember Kristin? She took this super cool picture of her vintage camera collection . . . I downloaded the picture to Uncommon and a couple days later . . . my super cool phone case was on my doorstep!

Look Who I Spotted . . .

over at  The Savvy Photographer Blog . . .  yep! that's us! that is my very favorite picture from our wedding. i wish i looked like that every day! maybe not in a wedding dress, but that skinny with that makeup!
