As many of you may know, we are off to photograph a wedding in Edinburgh, Scotland in just seven short days! We are extremely excited to make our first leap over the pond, and what makes it better, we get to do it with a terrific couple. Here’s a little peek at the festivities from the Krista’s shower, which was held in her sister’s beautiful home this afternoon.  The shower was a tea party theme, replete with cream puffs, chocolate dipped strawberries, and finger sandwiches. Krista, cake designer extraordinaire that she is, was sure to contribute a beautiful eye popping and delicious cake of her own…yum!

Bon Appétit,

Cake’s By Krista

Dr. Dan Poenaru, formerly a surgeon in Canada, holds a PhD in Paediatrics and is putting it too tremendous use. Dr. Poenaru has taken his practice and expertise to Kenya operating on young Kenyan children born with Spina Bifida. Spina Bifida is commonly caused by a deficiency in folic acid during pregnancy. There are four different types of Spina Bifida, generally speaking this condition is a deformity in spinal development: a failure of the spine to fuse completely. Spina Bifida effects the child’s mobility and  causes a large fluid filled sac to appear on the child’s back. Dr. Poenaru manages Bethany Kids Hospital in Kijabe and preforms surgeries at over 15 clinics throughout Kenya; he is doing his best to correct as many cases as he can, but funding is always needed and appreciated.

The Rotary Club of Cataroqui Kingston, with the support of Fancy That, The Roundstone, Felicity & Fritz and many other local business, sponsored a fashion show/fund raiser to help support Dr. Poenaru’s efforts in Kenya. The Night when off without a hitch!  $10,ooo was raised for the cause through dinner and the silent auction. Many small business owners stepped-up donating a plethora of terrific auction items, go Kingston!
