Ever since Jane I've cut back on how many projects I take on and it's made a huge difference. I'm starting to fall in love with weddings again. They're so fun :)




I live for those who love me,
Whose hearts are kind and true,
For the Heaven that smiles above me,
And awaits my spirit too;
For all human ties that bind me,
For the task by God assigned me,
For the bright hopes yet to find me,
And the good that I can do.
I live to learn their story
Who suffered for my sake;
To emulate their glory,
And follow in their wake;
Bards, patriots, martyrs, sages,
The heroic of all ages,
Whose deeds crowd History's pages,
And Time's great volume make.
I live to hold communion
With all that is divine,
To feel there is a union
'Twixt Nature's heart and mine;
To profit by affliction,
Reap truth from fields of fiction,
Grow wiser from conviction,
And fulfill God's grand design.
I live to hail that season
By gifted ones foretold,
When men shall live by reason,
And not alone by gold;
When man to man united,
And every wrong thing righted,
The whole world shall be lighted
As Eden was of old.
I live for those who love me,
For those who know me true,
For the Heaven that smiles above me,
And awaits my spirit too;
For the cause that lacks assistance,
For the wrong that needs resistance,
For the future in the distance,
And the good that I can do.

You're amazing, Patti. Really.
Wow-- I've been away from blogging for what, a couple weeks? No, probably a month, but wow! You've been posting some great stuff!
The bride's dress and shoes are gorgeous! Nice job capturing everything so perfectly.
The sushi makes me squirm a little bit right now-- could be it's been too long since I've had any, but yikes! The rolls look great, but how about that octopus!
Cute pictures of the snowman party. I love that Lucas "tried not to be excited."
