A New Chapter

Now that life is back to "normal" and getting adjusting to the pace of life... I realized I was terribly behind in my blogging:( One of the first things to go when life get's busy. I have to admit that I didn't take too many photo's but there are some moments that I would love to share with you all!  My dear sister wrote and recorded a song for her wedding (a song to dad and Chris). I was so honored to be able to go with her to the studio and help with the mixing, etc - was fun and brought back a ton of memories! This song was played as dad gave Jenelle to Chris - "Take This Moment" was definitely a highlight of the ceremony! Some of the dessert for the wedding - the requested "Pumpkin Crunch Cheesecake" Doing a trial make-up... yes outside, and of course the day before the wedding!! Thankful for these fun moments we were able to have during the business of it all! The bride getting her nails done We all (the bridal party, ...

For one, she's already had quite a few, and for another - they didn't need more stuff! I thought it would be fun just to get together some friends that go way back and have a fun evening of catching up! There were some people who really caught my vision for this evening and helped from beginning to end! The time seemed to catch up on me... and so two weeks before the event - people received their invitations. It was such a surprise as to how many people were able to make it out - so thankful! Some Prep-Work Photos  From Plywood to Ivories:) Wanted to create a photo booth - however never actually got it set up properly - ran out of time:) Was nice decor!  My brothers helping me with the eggs - you'll see later on  The streamer drapes  Mark offered to let us borrow his tent - which totally...
