Family - Bliss

Mop-head cuddles, belly laughs, wet kisses, arms reaching for an embrace, and the pitter patter of tiny feet...that's right, my little ones.  It doesn't get any better than waking up to my loves.  

During our visit to Florida, my parents graciously watched these little sweethearts so I could get away with the love of my life.  {For those who don't know, I'm head-over-heals over my Mr. Amazing.}  During my absence my heart ached for my little ones.  Upon our return, I scooped them up and breathed in their delicious sweetness.  Nothing like absence making the heart grow fonder.

My parents' property backs on to a dry lake bed.  I spent hours of time here in my teenage years, dreaming of my future...future love, children, and adventures.  I adore seeing my children now playing in the same beautiful field.  

Some images of the little ones who tug at my heartstrings.  

Hubby relaxin' with his morning coffee...Canada is never far from our minds.

As Time Goes By - Bliss

In so many ways I'm a modern kind of girl.  I love my high speed internet, my Starbucks drive-through, and my Blackberry.

When it comes to the things dearest to my heart, however, nostalgia always wins.

I find bliss in things like the...

• Timeless grace of Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly
• Pastel armories full of history
• Tales of "how we met"
• Crooning talents of Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra
• Old fashioned values of respect and consideration

Ultimate thrill?  The marriage of modern + vintage = heavenly!

I love hearing the old stories of my family.  Yes, even the not-so-glamorous stories {kind of dishy}.  The resemblance of personality and quirks seem to somehow make sense.

What about you?  Any romantic stories of time gone by?  Happy Valentines and here's to timeless love!

Story Behind the Images

They were a brand new married couple in the winter of 1949.

Ben + Me
My amazing husband and me at university graduation, May of 2004.
We officially started dating the day after this capture.
Even more?
My mom took the picture thinking of the picture of her parents.
Yeah, I know, moms have a 6th sense.

Baby J - Lifestyle Newborn

Sooo, I know I'm no longer accepting many lifestyle sessions.  However, I just had to post a few of sweet baby J.

Though only ten days old, he was mesmerized by the light streaming through the window, curious of new sounds.  So, so sweet.
