Spring has Sprung!

My son, Jacob, was out for "an adventure" as he calls it, the other day and came upon a catepillar innocently inching his way up the sidewalk...to some really great green grass, I'm sure. Too bad for the catepillar though, because "Jake the Scavenger" was looking for some little friends to spy on! He had the catepillar inside a jar with airholes for probably 2 hours when he finally LET ME let him go. Here are some photos just before the "very hungry catepillar" was freed from captivity.

Lin and Tong's Engagement Session

For the past several months, I've had the pleasure of planning Lin and Tong's wedding. They have been SO easy to work with and have an incredible vision for their wedding day. Lin and Tong will be getting married on Sunday, May 18 and I am looking forward to seeing their wedding finally become reality after all these months! Lin and Tong chose Logan Jarrard as their photographer (he is incredible!!) and here are some of their E-session shots he took just recently. I highly recommend Logan Jarrard as your wedding photographer. He's incredibly professional and very talented. Enjoy these beautiful photos!

Bitty Ball is here!

My almost 5 year old son, Jacob, has just joined the Greensboro Parks & Rec Bitty Ball league and he's having a blast! As a mother, I'm getting used to the fact that he is now in sports and I have to let him "get bruised and beat up a bit" as my husband, Mickey puts it. God help me! Here are some shots I took of him at his first practice. I think he's a great b-ball player, but I may be just a bit biased!

Ava Grace's 2nd Birthday Party

Last Saturday, Mickey and I went to our niece, Ava Grace's 2nd birthday party. She is so cute (as only an auntie can claim)! She had a blast with lots and lots of friends and loved her new Elmo and piano she received as gifts. I thought I would post some pics of her party here but my favorites are the ones of her "sneaking" a piece of icing...she kept looking back to see if her mommy was looking! Go ahead, Ava Grace, eat your cake!

Revolution Mill Studios

Last week I visited Revolution Mill Studios to take another tour of their gorgeous Events Center with one of my brides, Cathy. If you are looking for a ceremony or reception site with charm, elegance and character, this is the place! I took some photos of the site while we toured (remember I'm NOT a photographer...I'm a wedding planner thank God!) but definitely check out this place if you are undecided on a ceremony or reception site. I'm looking forward to seeing this place in all it's glory in August for Cathy & Chris's wedding!

My new blog!!

I have wanted to do this forever...I've been inspired by other wedding professionals who blog and I thought it would be a neat idea to have a Wedding Coordinator blog! So... drumroll...here it is! I will try to keep you up to date on the blog as much as possible. You'll see all kinds of things on here, not just weddings...that's why I named my blog "Insights"... to give you insight into wedding planning, the wedding industry and trends, and my world, in general! Feel free to post comments or email me! To start out, I thought I'd show you a photo of my family, taken at our October 11th, 2007 wedding, since they are my heart and soul and why I do what I do!
