Courtney's Book!

You might remember our good friend Courtney, who made a couple of hand-made scarves and beanies for Annie and one for The Empress. Our friend now has her own published storybook, and we are delighted to own a printed copy. 

The story is sort of Snow White meets Beetlejuice. It is a love story about a Boogyman who falls in love with Snow White herself. The illustrator does a wonderful job portraying the story in a Tim Burton-esque style. Annie hopes for a follow-up! 

This photo set is the first of 12 wonderful shoots we did in three days. We stayed at a good friend's Airbnb, which has a stairlift. Annie had a lot of fun trying it out. More to come!

Stonehenge

I am happy that I am finally getting around to posting these photos. Last December, a good friend and I went on a trip to the UK. One of the places we visited was Stonehenge. Of course, Annie was fascinated. 

Annie dug deep into some research and loved that there was no solid information on how the stones got there and what they were for. Annie loves a good mystery. She explained the different facts and theories like a professor.

One might notice Annie's wig. She borrowed it from her sister just for the occasion. I must say, Annie looks very professional and intelligent. She already looks that way, but this style adds a nice touch.

Computer Love

I love walking into the tiny home and seeing Annie on my computer. She usually looks up exciting information on astronomy, reads an article by a scholar, or just looks at bunnies. 

Annie doesn’t need glasses, but she loves to wear them because she knows they make her look cute. Her eyes can adjust to the lenses. She is my happy little computer nerd, always. 

Some good news: I was recently hired for a new job where I will be home a lot more often. We are very happy about this. Now, we have more time for photos, videos, writing, cleaning, and other projects.
