On Sunday, we met Ken and Dianne at Bertucci’s at the North Shore Mall for dinner. Due to a variety of trips, we won’t be seeing them until early June, so we wanted to have some time to hang out and chat.
Luckily, Catherine took care of the bill for us. You can see some more pics from the trip here.
Today we were gifted with very nice weather, so we once again headed to Dane Street Beach.
More pics from that trip here.
Today was a simply gorgeous day, so we headed to Dane Street Beach in Beverly for dinner and some playtime.

Catherine had a blast on the beach! We’re really looking forward to summer time and more trips to various beaches in the area! You can see more pics from today here.
I’m glad that Catherine and Rebecca made it home safely from their trip to Ohio. The house was pretty lonely without them. In celebration, I’ve put up a gallery of some of my favorite photos that I’ve taken of my favorite photographic subject since her return. Enjoy!
We were happy to get to celebrate Kirsten’s birthday with her.
Even though they’re driving to Ohio, I thought I’d share this photo of Rebecca giving Catherine a ride on a Momma-plane:
This morning, Rebecca and Catherine headed out on a road trip to Ohio to visit my family, and help Mark and Kirsten with packing for their upcoming move. I would have come, too, except I’m already taking a week off of work in May, and I didn’t want to take two weeks of vacation in two consecutive months. It will be sad not to see them for a week, but I hope to get a lot of things done that I might not do otherwise (e.g. get lots of sleep).
I’ve uploaded a few photos from their departure. I talked to Rebecca about an hour ago, and they were closing in on Buffalo, NY, where they’ll be staying with some friends for the evening before heading out to Mount Vernon tomorrow morning.
My prayers are with them for safe travel and much fun!
This past weekend, we were out visiting the Lowes in Townsend for Easter! We had a great time visiting with Nonni, Grandpa, Corey, and Vicky. We went to church at the TCCUCC and had Easter dinner at the 1761 Old Mill in Westminster (which is incidentally where my parents had dinner when they got engaged!).

I thought you might enjoy some good old fashioned gratuitous Catherine pics! You can see the rest of the pics from this weekend here.
Tonight we had dinner with Corey, Vicky, and Vicky’s roommate Jasmine in Vicky’s apartment in Somerville. After dinner, we played some games on their Nintendo Wii! This was our first time playing a Wii, and we had a lot of fun. We played tennis, boxing, and bowling in Wii Sports, and we also played a few rounds of Smooth Moves. Catherine had fun watching her Momma and Papa gesticulate wildly in front of the TV. 🙂 Good times were had by all, and Catherine was definitely sad when we headed home.
See some more pictures from the evening.
My photography workflow goes something like this:
Steps 5-8 are typically where I get hung up, as they are the most time-consuming. I’m particularly bad with #8 – sometimes there’s really not a whole lot to say about a particular batch of photos, and I don’t feel like just saying “Hey, here are some photos.” But I know that friends and family want to see the photos, so I’d rather let them know about them sooner.
So with that being said, here are some assorted photos that I have taken recently.
I shot a bunch of photos of Catherine in the living room, on an afternoon where there was some decent light coming in. I really like this one, where she’s just seen a dog walk past the house:
That same day, Rebecca, Catherine and I met up with my cousin Mark and went to Taco Bell for dinner. Here’s Mark with one of Taco Bell’s new dinner plates:

Catherine and her Papa had a nice Valentine’s Dinner date last night and they were nice enough to let me come along! The three of us went to the Daily Harvest Cafe for some delicious sandwiches. At first we had a table for three, but Catherine decided she would rather sit in the comfy chairs- alone. with Papa. So I stayed at our table while she and Peter went off to color by the windows.
A good time was had by all!
