luray

About two weekends ago, we decided to venture out to Luray Caverns with Henry. After living two hours away from them for the last thirteen years, it was about time. Parts of the caverns were so beautiful that I wanted to stay and stare for hours, while other parts made me so claustrophobic that I wanted to run away.

I was very pleasantly surprised by how well behaved Henry was and how much he loved exploring the caverns. He talked nonstop, posed for the camera beside every available column, and was desperate to touch the stalagmites. I'm posting a few of my favorite pictures below. The one with the crazy beautiful reflection is Dream Lake, where I wish I could have spent the entire day.

crazy beautiful life

Two and a half months since my last post ... I think that may be a new record. I want to get back into the swing of things, but it will probably be a few weeks before I have time for regular posts again.

As usual, life is crazy and wonderful. Henry started preschool and soccer, we moved again, I traveled for work constantly until two weeks ago, Etsy exploded with so many orders that I can barely keep up, and I got another promotion at work, which will now put me on salary and finally in a good financial spot. Overall, I'm in a happy place with the new job, new place, and two very special people to share it with. My new knitting room is piled high with yarn and inspiration, so here's hoping the orders keep pouring in. Soon, my new job will allow me to have four consecutive days off each week, so I hope to be extremely productive this holiday season. AND! I'll have plenty of time to devote to my sweet boy. :)

More updates coming soon. Until then ...
