So many...

You may have noticed I have been blogging a lot more frequently lately.

Good news is I have all of these gorgeous weddings just waiting to be shared.

Look at this gorgeous couple - I couldn't be happier for them.

They were so much fun.

I simply love a beautiful wedding ...

And Counting ...

How good looking is this group? I know - I know... pretty good looking.

This is me with all of my nieces and nephews.

It was so much fun to see my family more than once a year.

Time goes by so fast - enjoy all the little moments.

Love, love, love, love.

Enough said.

It's Fall in Virginia

A few pictures taken with my point and shoot while on my run/walks.

Love this time of year.

Seen from the 10th floor

Absolutely beautiful.

When I was home I saw a rainbow with the widest bands of color I have ever seen.

This particular rainbow had incredible clarity - it faded quickly but at its peak - wow!

"Come on in,
I've gotta tell you what state I'm in,
I've gotta tell you in my loudest tones,
That I started looking for a warning sign.

When the truth is,
I miss you.
Yeah the truth is,
That I miss you so.

And I'm tired,
I should not have let you go."

Coldplay "Warning Signs"

"Tengo la camisa negra.
Hoy mi amor está de luto.

Hoy tengo en el alma una pena

Hoy sé que tú ya no me quieres
Y esto es lo que más me hiere
Que tengo la camisa negra
Y una pena que me duele."

Juanes "La Camisa Negra"

I heard that you settled down
That you found a girl ...
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,"

Adele "Someone Like You"

Because sometimes you just need to listen to a few songs that speak to your soul.

Love

Love this time of year ...

D.Simpson Family

The little cutie in pink is the same baby that made

her appearance the day before I left back in early July.

She is growing so fast.

And when I walked in the door and saw the other cutie, she pointed at me and said "Ti-Nana"

She remembered me! I guess I should make it home a little more often.

Carrie & Joe at Strong Mansion

I'm way behind on my blogging - but here is one from a recent gorgeous wedding at Strong Mansion!

Today - Feeling Great

Sometimes... most times - being in the mountains - it does something for my soul.

It was a perfect day!

Sometimes you have to dance

The band at the wedding at Four Seasons in Georgetown this weekend was phenomenal.

You know, sometimes you just have to dance, move,

shake, shimmy, laugh and smile and enjoy the moment.
