One of my favorite pictures from Kyle and Jessy's wedding reception in Salt Lake a couple of weeks ago. Kyle and Jessy are my maternal first cousins. They rock!! They love to dance and sing and help people.

Definite thumbs up on the wedding. The luncheon rocked-- I loved how they recognized each guest individually. Beautiful hot chocolate on a clear sunny, February day. Fabulous venue with great vistas. Loved the reception at the nursery in Cottonwood (was that Cottonwood? I get some of my UT geography mixed up, east off of 10600 south)-- everything was lush with life. Great music and dancing. Thumbs up on the food and the photo booth.



Simy, Jenny and me at her wedding last weekend in Albany. I got to be friends with Simy and Jenny during my first year living in New York City as we worked together at the Harriet Tubman Learning Center in Harlem.

Beautiful wedding! Loved it!! Thumbs up on the venue, food, decor, dresses and dancing. Great speeches from the wedding party, and lovely ceremony. May Jenny and Rich Vehlow live happily ever after!!
Hello all my blogworld friends. Sorry I've been SUCH a slacker. I'm getting back into this a little bit, though. Life has been pretty interesting lately, and I think it deserves to be blogged.

Okay, so since I was tagged, like five months go, here are...

5 things about me!!!

1) I love cats. I babysit my neighbors cats somewhat regularly. There's nothing quite like a purry, cuddly kitty. Or one who likes to watch water that you throw in the bathtub. (sorry if that's random, that's what my Gigi used to do :)

2) I really love singing. I'm fascinated by it. Opera, musical theater, rock, pop, belt, whatever. I'm SO interested in finding out how people do different things with their voices in a healthy way, and learning how to do it myself. I love singing!

3) I love chick flicks. And chick lit. I can live and breathe Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre, Emma, Return to Me, While You were Sleeping, Little Women etc. etc. I am working on introducing more testosterone into my life, connecting with the masculine side. For example, I also enjoy martial arts and sports movies like Remember the Titans and stories about good men, like Robert E. Lee.

4) In high school I was a member of the math club. I also got a 4 or 5 on my BC Calculus Exam, I forget which. When my inner mathemetician comes out, it's a little scary.

5) I love my apartment! It makes me happy. I enjoy having guests, experimenting with different decorations, and introducing delicious aromas into my apartment when I bake or use a nice candle. I think my apartment has really helped me discover my nesting instinct. I didn't know I had one. I love decorating for holidays, and lately I've been into cleaning with vinegar.
