The backyard
We had people over in our backyard again tonight. As usual, it was awesome. There were friends, good food, and even lots of laughter. The birdfeeders that we put up a few days ago have seen a lot of action too, which is great. More and more photos of birds to come, I am sure. If you have any ideas as to what these birds might be, please let me know!
For now, though, here’s some of my favorites from the evening!

There is nothing that tops off an interesting day at work and a wonderful evening at Knit Night like coming home and playing in the garden. I spent a good 45 minutes on the phone today with a lovely person in Chicago who has an awesome idea for can-collecting… and it felt like I was actually able to make a difference. It’s now dark, and I’m curled up on the couch with two cats purring on my lap and Pete working on sewing behind me. In other words, it’s a good night. Happy, comfortable, and content — a good way to end the day.
I’ve been told that with just barely over 2 weeks until the wedding, I am a low-stress bride. To be honest, there are lots of little things that need to be organized, but I don’t feel like it is any challenge bigger than a press junket, a new job, or starting a business. There are so many fewer “unknowns” in the wedding than there is in the rest of life. In the end, we’ll get married, and that’s what is important. I just can’t wait for friends and family to start arriving in town. Then it will be food, friends, family, fun, and pure awesomeness.
On that lovely and exciting note, it’s time to curl up and dream until tomorrow. Sleep sweet!
