JESS M. COLLETTE For Jenny, the moment she’s been waiting for has arrived - Buzz – it’s finally summer vacation from McGovern Middle School! She and her best friend Nico have dreamed of this day all year long by making maps and talking about the trips they’ll take on their bikes around town. But will their well-thought-out plans ever be realized? Their classmate Carli Connors, Miguel, a new boy from out of town, and the surprise arrival of a playful hummingbird named Happy prove that things may not happen as they are sometimes planned. In this light-hearted adventure tale, Happy Is Here, Jenny and the others will find that friendships come and go, life is full of lessons, and Jess M. Collette lives in Rhode Island with her husband Joe and their rescue dog Callie. She loves to create and write, drawing inspiration from everyday life, spirituality, and nature. She hopes her books, short stories, and poetic pieces provide a little bit of sunshine in the lives of those who read them.

weddings
SIMONE PLUS PHOTOGRAPHY Our wedding day was truly the best day of our lives. It’s really hard to put into words. It was so incredibly special to celebrate our marriage surrounded by everyone we love. We are so grateful to our family and friends who made our wedding day one we will never forget. There are a few special moments I would like to highlight. Firstly, the feeling of excitement and relief after the conclusion of the ceremony when Louis and I were walking back up the aisle for the recessional. That was the moment I felt like the hard part was over and we could truly relax and enjoy the special day! Second, when we honored my grandparents’ 65 years of marriage on the dance floor. My grandfather, Bruce Smith, gave us the advice to “always let her have her way”, which I will remember forever. When I asked Louis what his most memorable moment of the day was, he said (and no I didn’t put him up to this): “Seeing my beautiful wife walk down the aisle!” He’s a keeper for sure.

WRIGHT'S DAIRY FARM Discover Rhode Island sat down to interview a locally loved RI business as our Business of the Month! How did Wright's get started? We are a 5th generation dairy farm that started with my great grandfather George buying this land in 1914. He established our dairy farm for his wife and 7 children and sold milk to the neighbors, as many farms did back in the day. When pasteurization became the standard in the early 1930’s, George and son Ernest invested in the equipment to process milk here on the farm. Ernest grew the business with a home delivery route; delivering glass quart bottles to homes in town and surrounding neighbors. He was known as the “milk man”. He built the Wright brand and was known for quality, value and running a family farm. Looking
