Celebrating Life and Love

Where has the week gone?

Last weekend's events got me through this busy week.  Whenever I needed a pick-me-up, I thought about the exciting, wonderful things that my friends have experienced recently.  It's what life is all about... those moments and milestones that truly matter. 

Here's what we celebrated this past weekend:

A new baby...

Congratulations to S and R on their precious son!  It's so beautiful to see your dear friends—the ones you've known since college, the ones you've shared classes, apartments, dance parties, bottles of champagne, laughter and tears with—become parents.

An engagement...

Congratulations to C and A on their engagement!  (Fun fact: these two caught the bouquet and garter at Scott's and my wedding!)  Our impromptu celebration of champagne and margaritas—and the opportunity to share in their happiness—was so fun.

A new puppy...

Congratulations to M and S on their new beagle puppy!  My family had a beagle growing up, so I loved snuggling with this little one.  Those floppy ears, that adorable face, those tiny paws, that white-tipped tail... he's so cuddly and cute.
