We took a trip to Portland and ate tasty food, perused markets and ventured to Hood River to try Broder Øst. (The Danish pancakes were to die for). I enjoy quick trips that are close.
Jahvini Celebrates 40 Years
Headed up to Kuleto Estate Winery to capture a celebration among close friends of Jahvini (who also hails from Illinois). Lots of laughter and hugs ensued and here are some of the results.
Introducing: Ziggy (Stardust) + (David) Bowie
We sadly lost (Bob) Dylan January 2016. It was very devastating. He was only 8 years old and such a majestic photogenic cat. We miss him dearly. Earlier last year, we adopted (David) Bowie. He is also handsome and very playful. A bit shy sometimes. And we're so grateful he came into our lives. Now, a year later, he has a sister, Ziggy (Stardust). She's the sweetest, most gentle, kitten we've ever had. We adore her to pieces.

Amie+Piotr get married
My sister, Amie, and now brother-in-law, Piotr, celebrated their marriage in Marco Island, Florida. She and Piotr are both artists and created all the decorations, chargers for the dinner plates, name card holders and so much more. Here are a few moments from the amazing weekend. Since I was matron-of-honor, not many photographs, but I did manage to get enough video. Amie's wedding photographer, Anastasiia Ostapovich, did an amazing job and I wanted to include her to showcase the majesty of their wedding. (Plus, I'm not a wedding photog).
