    This is all so lovely, what wonderful photos, your daughter looks beautiful and that chapel is just amazing. It's nice to have two completely different weddings...two dresses two venues, awesome. Congratulations to everyone, new babies are the best news ever. New beginnings, tiny baby feet and a little one to knit for. Perfect.

    For some reason I couldn't comment on the last post but it all sounded wonderful. I wish I could go along too for the knitting and the island but most of all to meet you Lori. This year is a bit of a weird one with selling the house and potential moving so we can't really plan anything else, but maybe one day.

    Oh and the Louies sweater looks gorgeous on Hannah. It's in my cue.

    I bet you've already got little tiny baby things on your needles.

    The love you gave and still give your family just keeps multiplying! Exciting times are ahead for you all, and don't you dare say you haven't thought about all the baby knits you'll be making ;-) Perhaps you could make a book of baby patterns inspired by your first grand-child!
