Summer has come to a close. I'm remembering all of the fun moments we've had with our friends and family, especially given our most recent news: we've moved to Boston so Steve can attend seminary on full scholarship!

We will miss Ruth's little friend Julia, who looks so much like her father. (Of course we'll miss her parents, too.)

We will miss all the friendships we've cultivated here. But rest assured, we'll be back to visit.

It's such a shame that so many of our memories here will probably not be available to Ruth, but hopefully all the pictures I've taken will give her an idea of how happy we were, and are.

And though we're living in Boston now, I'm still booking weddings for Baltimore in 2010. There are a now 6 slots left in my schedule, and for eager couples in either city, I look forward to hearing from you!

So farewell, summer, and hello to a brand new chapter in our lives!
