You might well remember Mark and Kim from this earlier post about Crossfit Blenheim, and how they’ve been helping me shed the dough-like substance around my middle. Well this time Mark keeps his shirt on and it’s all about young Jack, their super cute little man.… Mark and Kim’s Family Portraits
You might well remember Mark and Kim from this earlier post about Crossfit Blenheim, and how they’ve been helping me shed the dough-like substance around my middle. Well this time Mark keeps his shirt on and it’s all about young Jack, their super cute little man.… 
She beams at her groom like he’s her knight in shining armour, the man who swept her off her feet, handsome with a smile that could melt anyone in the room. Gustavo is not afraid to be a gentleman, ready at any moment to straighten Sarah’s veil or open a door, these are the small clues that Sarah has truly found someone who will treat her like a Queen.… 
It wasn’t supposed to be a setup, apparently. Jane and Matt just happened to be the only two single people at the dinner, along with one other couple. With several mysterious no-shows, somehow this dinner with friends started looking like a double date! …
