First Day

Today

Orientation

 

Grace had orientation today and begins her journey into the world of cosmetology officially on Monday! We are so, so excited for her and love that she's following in her Gramma Terri and Great-Grandma Rose's footsteps as well! xo

Last One of the Season

 

These gorgeous jewel tones are the perfect way to end Small Farm's flower CSA season! Thankfully we have two more "pick your own" bouquets to make since we were part of all three seasonal flower shares this year. It will be wonderful to have a couple of more bouquets, but this time made by the girls, before the winter arrives. We are eagarly anticipating the arrival next year's CSA season already! xo 

Good Morning!

In which I cannot resist capturing this sweet early morning moment with Emma and Violet.xo

Morning and Evening

Dave and the girls left off to the NY Renaisance Faire today while I stayed home to attend my first day of Educators' Neighborhood (and take care of the mini-farm).

So This Happened....

 

And just like that Emma's senior session is in the books!It was a gorgeous day for her shoot in Worcester, and we even got a couple of just Grace as well (since Liz was not doing min-grad sessions last spring due to medical reasons). It's hard to beleive that we are here again already and that this is the last time we will be doing senior pictures but here we are. Now, just to wait for the professional pictures, which are sure to be stunning! xo
