A Perfect Morning

One of my favorite things about Saturday mornings is how slowly they move. This Saturday has been particularly lovely. I awoke to frost on the ground and a beautiful mist in the air, I’m slowly preparing for the ball tonight while watching John Adams, I had a wonderful chat with my mom on the phone, and my house is cheerily decorated for Christmas. I can’t think of a better way to spend a lovely Saturday morning.

Sweet Birdie Boy and me. Yes, those are rags in my hair, it’s the only way my hair will curl.

And just in case you have not already guessed, dear readers, you have chosen this lovely ensemble for the Ball tonight.

Have a lovely and blessed weekend. I should hopefully have pictures of the ball within a few day. God Bless!

Love Lauren

A wonderful Saturday morning! I couldn't agree with you more. The light in your photos looks like the light in my house right now (it being Saturday morning, and you being only one state northwest of me). So lovely...

I hope you had a great time and awoke to a lovely Sunday morning as well!
