Hello to Nova Scotia!
It’s been a bit since I’ve posted anything and I do apologize for that delay. It is my intention to post something at least weekly. I have written and rewritten a post called “Christmas in July” about a hundred times and I still don’t have the heart to post it. It’s funny cause I amContinue reading “Hello to Nova Scotia!”

Goin to the chapel and we’re gonna get married…
Four years later, on October 19, 2013, that Animation Manager with whom I share almost the same name, became my husband – on a beach in Puerto Plata in front of our family and friends. My parents walked me down the sandy aisle to the sounds of my brother, Brian and my cousin, Ginny, performingContinue reading “Goin to the chapel and we’re gonna get married…”
