Three Years Ago Today
So, it was three years ago on this very day that I started my blog. I'm still rather amazed by what it has become and how it has altered my life (instead of merely recording it as was the initial hope). I hope you enjoy the little video I made in honor of the occasion.

Photographic Memory
These recap posts are always rather daunting. My blog is officially three years old and I want to remember the past "blogging year" through my favorite photographs...which means going through hundreds of images and forcing myself to narrow them down to just a few for each month; making this post rather ridiculous in length. It has been an interesting year exploring Washington State, road trips through the Midwest, and even some fashion week shenanigans in New York city...and now I'm off to Europe for new adventures. Thank you so much to everyone who has visited my blog to be part of the ride!

Holiday
Before Cary Grant became the dapper actor we all remember him as, he traveled in the circus. No lie. You would never guess this from most of his films or even his persona off-screen, but one movie does briefly display some of his acrobatic skills: Holiday. His tumbling abilities are definitely not center stage in the movie (it only occurs in one short scene, but it still kills me!) which is a romantic comedy that also stars the ever enigmatic Katharine Hepburn.
Johnny Case (Grant) is a free-spirited young lawyer who just wants to make enough so he can go on a holiday. He intends to enjoy himself until the money runs out, because he'd rather enjoy himself while he's young and work hard when he's old. However, Johnny gets sidetracked by a whirlwind romance with a wealthy young woman and it isn't long before the lady and her father begins to interfere. Johnny starts to consider compromising his ideals and plans for his love, but he finds support from his entertaining friends (played by Edward Horton and Jean Dixon) and the black sheep of his fiancée's family (Katharine Hepburn). Will Johnny Case settle down to a predictable life of respectability or will he join the "anti-stuffed shirt society" and take his extended holiday?
