New Beginnings

I am the bearer of both good news and bad in this post. The good news is that Nate & I have decided to collaborate on a new blog; www.we-resolve.com. We have made 13 resolutions (for the year 2013) and are going to journal how we fulfil these. There will be the same mix of photography and writing, but I get to share in it with my best friend! The bad news is that I will no longer be writing here... This blog has been amazing and I am so glad that you have shared this journey with me. Please do join us at We Resolve, it just wouldn't be the same without you. Lucy x

Recent Goings On

The last few weeks have been hectic (as per) but great fun. They've been filled with carol services, filming out and about in Sheffield and treating our ears to the Kate Peters Septet at Live Jazz Wednesdays, amongst other Christmas preparation and general rounding up of the term. I'm looking forward to my two precious weeks of holiday and aim to spend as much time as possible in the company of lovely people, which shouldn't be too difficult.
P.S. Nate passed his 3rd year med school exams, which means we are one step closer to the end. I am a very proud wife to be!

The Student Conference 2013 in Sheffield, England

Churchforstudents.com asked me to create a promotion video for their student conference this year as part of my media internship within church. This is what I came up with.

Half Term

... has come at the perfect time to try to re-focus.

Pumpkin Pie

After welcoming Autumn, I kept thinking about pumpkins. My beloved brought one home for me during this week and Sunday afternoon seemed the perfect time to transform it into something delicious. We even made a pumpkin pie playlist.

There's a new coffee shop in town with wooden walls and friendly atmosphere. While we sat, we watched it get dark outside and slowly got more excited about what this season has to offer. Autumn, we welcome you.
