Synopsis:

At her old school, Lacey found herself on the wrong side of a conflict between Celtic gods. Making a new start in an exclusive boarding school in New Orleans, she hopes to forget that she was once on the verge of becoming a powerful witch—and everything she has lost since then.

When a gruesome murder occurs in the very heart of Westover Academy, Lacey senses a connection between it and the desecration of the tomb of Marie Laveau, the Voodoo queen. Haunted by a trauma in her past and the resulting OCD, Lacey must solve the mystery before she becomes the killer’s next target.

Circumstances beyond her control may once again make Lacey McInnis—cheerleader, scholar, and all-around good girl—a witch.

Preparing for a Wedding

This year, my oldest brother will be tying the knot with his long time partner. The wedding is set this coming December, a few days before Christmas. 

Now, being the photographer, I'll be covering their big day. But was actually thinking of doing some DIYs for venue decorations and church styling. This is to avoid paying much for the decorations only.

Just a few more weeks and we will be having our pre-nuptial photo session. Looking or still searching for the best venue for that event. Was also thinking of giving them some party before saying their I DOs. 

Very good thing that there are sites that provides tutorials of DIYs and sites that provides party ideas like Classy Bachelorette Party Ideas.

Hoping that our plans will work. Actually I am excited for the forthcoming wedding.

Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William to have a second baby

Yes, you read it right. Prince William and his wife Kate have announced that they are expecting their second child.

Clarence House made the announcement just after 10am this morning saying the couple were “very pleased” to make the announcement.

The happy news comes less than two months after the first birthday of their first son George.

The Queen and members of both William and Kate's families are "delighted" with the news, Kensington Palace said.

Kate is said to be suffering from acute morning sickness, as she did with her first pregnancy, and is being treated by doctors at Kensington Palace. She is no longer joining her husband on a planned engagement in Oxford today.

And I am also delighted to know this news. Hoping and praying that it'll be a baby girl this time! :)
