The Blue Brick | Inspired Yarns

This Sunday, after a long and challenging battle with feline diabetes, we made the difficult decision to put my little cat, Shodan, to sleep. Shodan was brought to us as a stray at 3 weeks old, by a dear friend. She grew to be the gentlest…

Our professional photos will take a little while to arrive, but I wanted to share some of the candid moments from our wedding day, and from the photo shoot that we did the following morning in the park. The day already feels like a blur!
