Amy Parrish Photoshoot

I answered a casting call for a local photographer's personal project and it was definitely an interesting experience!  The inspiration behind the shots are from a Japanese folk tale called "The Crane Wife".  Here is a sample:






This is probably one of my favorites.  Water was cold and we got a lot of curious stares from passersby, but I think the results were worth it:)

I can't wait!!

Today, I opened up my laptop to catch up on my blog reading, and came across Puttin' On the G.R.I.T.S' blog with pictures of her Aspen trip...and it totally reminded me that in just about two weeks or so, I'll be GOING TO ASPEN!!!!  Can't believe how close it's getting.  Ryan and I have been patiently anticipating this trip since January.  Poor Ry, he needs to get away so badly.  New position = new stresses. But before that, I'll be going to Lexington, KY and Nashville, TN w/ my parents and two doggies.  Lexington is first to meet a 2nd (or 3rd?) cousin that I've never met before on my grandfather's side.  This is exciting for me b/c I never got to meet my grandfather as he died 2 months before I was born. After that, we'll be moving on to Nashville to see some old family friends.  We'll be there for most of the week, so I think I may take my violin with me as it'll be two retired couples + me.  I suspect there will lots of down time.  I ...

Life lately

There are good days and there are bad days.  The good days are when I'm distracted from all things concerning my mom, or the times I see her in person or over Skype and catch her smiling or talking normally and it calms my soul;  the bad days catch me by surprise and kind of piss me off, quite frankly.  Like yesterday-- I was doing just fine, as I think I'd been for the past week, until I sat down last evening and opened a book I picked up from the library that I'd seen on someone's recent book list:   When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalinithi.  I am not sure what I was thinking, reading a book written by a man around my age who died of terminal lung cancer shortly after writing it, especially in the midst of my own mother's terminal cancer diagnosis. I guess I thought it would help me come to terms with the concept of death and dying.  And it IS a good book--Kalinithi was a good writer, a neurosurgeon by training, but writer and philosopher at heart (he al...

8 months old on Super Tuesday

My little girl turned 8 months yesterday.  I wish I could slow time down :( Some recent developments in the last few weeks: - she is a pro army crawler! (hasn't quite gotten the hang of actual crawling, but we're getting there) - in the last few days I've found her sitting up in her crib--uh oh! So last night we lowered her crib. - She can bring herself up to a sit from lying down - Eating more and more solid foods (which means more and more REAL poop *pee-ewww*!) - Just in general likes to get into everything and make messes! She loooves our Yorkie, Zoe. But Zoe wants nothing to do with her! I just want to eat her up!!! Can't get enough BLUEBERRIES crawling faster and FASTER. UH-OH. Whenever I get down or worked up about the current election, I just start playing with or snuggling with my little girl and that seems to do the trick ;) Life does, overall, seem to be getting better; more sleep, easier to go out with the baby, being able to...
