It had been far too long since I had seen all my wonderful friends. Where does the time go? I knew before the summer was out and I was back in school that I wanted to host a gathering. Why not have all my favorites on my 45th? I sent out handcrafted invitations a few weeks ago. A Favorite 45 Birthday Party It Will Spin You Right Round.

De Witt Museum and the Summer Gardens & Attire at Colonial Williamsburg
Coming near the end of our trip there was one place I had been looking forward to visiting, the DeWitt Museum at Colonial Williamsburg. When I was last at Colonial Williamsburg I was so busy photographing the holiday wreaths, interiors, and fashions that I ran out of time. I was determined to go there and had heard it was a museum that children would enjoy.

Crossing the Delaware, Delicious Eats and a Darling Dress Shop
On a bright and glorious morning I crossed the Delaware. But it was over this bridge not via a boat. Less drama for sure. All at once we left Pennsylvania and found ourselves in Lambertville, New Jersey. This is Jersey? Surely not based on what the “Shore” and certain “Housewives” will tell us, but yes, this is beautiful New Jersey. Lambertville is considered the antique capital of New Jersey and I certainly believe it. The architecture is fabulous. The period details found in dentil ... View the Post
