I Art This Birthday

I spent my birthday with great friends, great art, and the great outdoors.  MASS MoCA has a fantastic exhibit of Sol Lewitt's work.  Hurry, it's only going to stick around for another 25 years.

all you need is LOVE

We both know that sentiment is far from true, which is why we celebrated 3 years of marriage yesterday!  We have so much more than love, and I love that.

Yesterday was my birthday, and I celebrated with 2 days of fun, friends and food! Notably, I got some delightful vintage things from Petrune, my new favorite store of all time. They have a Mad Med theme in the window now, complete with Scotch. Looking forward to celebrating more over the long weekend.

Remembering Ireland

I went to Ireland in July for a family reunion. I had a wonderful time taking in all the scenery, sheep, Guinness, cheese, and new friends. Here's some of the highlights.

a relaxing country drive - were it not for the insane jetlag

after taking this photo, I crashed the wedding. I was in good company though.

the obligatory fish n chips- I love the tartar sauce in a shell

What an amazing adventure! I can't wait to go back. I have a permanent travel bug for the Emerald Isle. And a permanent love for the portrait orientation.
