How do you store your photos? - From China Village
http://www.fromchinavillage.com/2015/07/how-do-you-store-your-photos
How do you store your photos? July 29, 2015. My nephew Julius demonstrating how photo storage makes me feel! Let’s just lay down on the floor and pretend we don’t have a problem! I’m certain I don’t need all those 21,000 photos, but the idea of going through them and even just deleting duplicates or near-duplicates makes me want to crawl under my bed and never come out. For $11.99/year. Trouble is, it takes bloody forever to upload so many photos! How do you back them up? I’m hoping that admitting ...

Art for Anniversaries / Painter Lola Donoghue - From China Village
http://www.fromchinavillage.com/2014/03/art-anniversaries-painter-lola-donoghue
Art for Anniversaries / Painter Lola Donoghue. March 4, 2014. So shortly after our anniversary, I had a brilliant idea. Each anniversary, let’s invest in a piece of art! Doesn’t that sound kind of amazing – building an art collection one year at a time. And it gives us a whole year to look around or earmark articles about local artists we like, and to make a decision together on which piece it will be. We’ve already found an artist we want to invest in and we still have to wait another six months! That&#...

Happy Weekend! - From China Village
http://www.fromchinavillage.com/2015/08/happy-weekend-9
August 8, 2015. Happy weekend, everyone! How was your week? Manage to squeeze in any summer fun? Michael and I spent a few good work days in China Village while my parents were at their respective offices, but also we also caught up with some college friends for some Portland exploring and time at a lake in southern Maine. The weather has been perfect – not too hot, just sunny enough, and a cool breeze. I had forgotten how amazing August in Maine can be! That follows nomadic groups in Kenya. So our dishw...

Photography / Family Photos in Howth. May 25, 2015. It’s not a holiday in Dublin today, but I certainly feel like I need one more day before we get this week started. We had one of the most packed-full-of-fun weekends we’ve had in a long time, with warm sunny weather finally arriving. We woke up Saturday morning and decided on an impromptu visit to Deer Park (that same place with all the incredible. Teddy came along, too. And somehow kept getting dirty ;). You can learn more about my photography here.

A Special Maine Bridal Shower. July 28, 2015. There were no games, it wasn’t fussy, it was just a chance to get together with family and friends, chat, and celebrate the beautiful bride! Thanks to another friend of ours, she ended up with the floopiest bow bouquet to carry down the aisle at her rehearsal in less than three weeks, and we enjoyed the less than seasonal temperatures out on Emily’s deck, chatting and enjoying a little Maine lunch. The bride and our gorgeous mom! For a special gift, I solicit...
