A certain pretty birthday girl was queen for the night with her sparkling crown. The ring on her finger now matches her masqued beauty. Another day brought quite the different bunch of friends, FIERCE!!
A full day of gold, silver, bronze, and the best standing that NM has achieved since we can remember, brought smiles and energy that lasted the bus ride home and into the evening festivities. Finally, the boys aren't afraid of us anymore.

And the weekend was brought to a close with a visit to the place where buildings touch the sky and a certain rising artist likes to walk down Newbury Street and look at glittering beads with girls united by heart and a pink stone.

Weekends like this make me yearn for the summer

when all of our troubles will be lifted for moments on end.

moments, because wonderful times like these are remembered as moments in time.
