Bridget (aka Boo) and Patrick (aka Peaches) were married inside the gorgeous Saint Margaret of Scotland Church, on Chicago’s south side, and had a rip-roaring backyard reception behind Bridget’s parents and neighbor’s houses in the neighborhood of Beverly.

One of my favorite photos from the day. Hilarious.

Late night eats were provided by a hot dog cart from Woody’s catering, serving Chicago-style hot dogs.
It was a great time documenting Bridget and Patricks wedding, and I’m not just saying that. They, along with their friends and family, were a dynamic and lively bunch and it shows in the photos. Congratulations to you two!

The morning after the blizzard, I grabbed a camera and explored my new, snow-covered (20 inches!) neighborhood and took some photographs. I wasn’t the only one excited to get out and play in the snow, several other people had the same idea. Since majority of the sidewalks were not yet shoveled the best method of travel was by walking down the empty streets. It was surreal.

Snowshoeing tracks. I was surprised by the number of people with snowshoes in the city.

I recently gathered some of Adelaide’s outgrown clothes & toys and headed to the nearby Salvation Army to donate them. While we were there, I found this awesome jelly bean covered kid’s helmet made by Nutcase (great name, BTW). Adelaide put the helmet and loved it. $2? SOLD!
No, I don’t make her wear the helmet in the house, she voluntarily put it on before riding (ghost-riding?) her firetruck scouter.
