Renewed appreciation...

The weather here was beautiful yesterday. I am usually pretty good about enjoying the season I'm currently in - literally and figuratively. But I have had some major spring fever lately! I think it's the lack of snow around here. Anyone with me?! Regardless, I'm grateful for a few random spring days tossed amidst our winter! Today I have a list of random things to share with you. I love variety. :)

When it comes to food, I really have a hard time not obsessing over the way the French does things. Okay, maybe I just obsess too much over food in general (obviously). But I really do think the French are doing something right...

Did you send Megan your portrait for her to draw? She's drawing a portrait every day in 2013 and she still needs some faces! You can see mine here.

'Tis the season for new website launches (and re-launches!). We have officially moved from the designing stage (Thanks, Allie!) to the coding stage (Thanks, Clif!) on my new site. It is now my job to populate all the new content for the site. Whew, you don't even want to see that to-do list! Task #1: Set a launch date.

This icon search engine has been super useful for me lately. Thought you might like it, too!

I'll be at the Lynchburg Bridal Expo this coming Sunday with Lynchburg Snapshot Studio! I'm running a contest, so if you're a bride and in town, stop by my booth to enter for a BIG giveaway!

Sunday received her first Valentine yesterday! Yes, I've already put it in her memory box. :)

Sunday's First Valentine

And he sealed it with a KISS. Scandalous!

Oooh, and it looks like our weekend will be filled with lots of walking practice…!

Happy Friday, friends! I hope you have a great weekend filled with love and a renewed appreciation for this season of your life.
