Pasadena Art Night 2013

So much for coming back to blogging! It has been a crazy month in the Laing household! February started with me coming down with a "mild" case of pneumonia (and if you've ever had pneumonia, you know there is nothing mild about it!), followed by an allergic reaction to the medicine they gave me, followed by more medication and more problems! I don't think I've ever been to the doctor this many times in one month! Right in the middle of my drama, my husband manages to get a small fracture in his hand. And we're about to start a major add-on to our house (we're tripling the size of our house!) which involves moving out for an unspecified amount of time. Needless to say... if you've emailed me or been in contact with me over the past month, thank you for your patience! Like they always say, when it rains it pours! 
On a more positive note... Last Friday was Pasadena's annual Art Night! We usually try and go depending on what the exhibits are. I was very excited to see a wedding themed exhibit this year at the Pasadena Museum of History called I Do! I Do! Pasadena Ties the Knot. It was all about wedding dresses! It was fun getting to walk around and look at all the pretty dresses! What I liked most was that the dresses were out in the open and not behind glass like they so often are. If you've got some free time, the exhibit is free on Wednesday's, so go and take a look! 

Engagement: Alvaro & Clara

It's amazing how time flies! It felt like just yesterday I was posting my last engagement shoot, and somehow the months have flown by! It's been a busy few months that I will hopefully fill you in on soon! 

I had a blast hanging out with Alvaro and Clara this past weekend! They decided to do something a little different for their engagement session. They spent the afternoon cooking homemade pasta (with a recipe entirely in Italian!) and just enjoying each other. It was so fun doing something different and learning something new along the way! 
Alvaro and Clara, thanks for letting me join you on your culinary adventure! I had such a fun time tasting and learning from you guys! I can't wait until your wedding, it'll be here before we know it!
