Delicious Cake!!

Image
Tonight we had our cake tasting...it was sooo much fun! We tasted our cakes and made our decisions about what flavors we would go with and what it would look like and then Matt and I just talked with the cake lady and her husband for about an hour and a half...they were so nice and just good people! They recommended a little pizza joint right down the road from them so we ate there. Yep, tonight we had our dessert before our dinner! Over our Pizza we talked about how wonderful this whole process is and the nice people we have met. If you don't enjoy meeting with the vendors and reaping in their expertise and the love for what they do, you surely would miss alot. We are blessed!! Enjoy what is happening in your life right now because you will never get these moments back!

A Full Week of Fun things

Last Tuesday, I met up with my fellow photographer friend RaLynn. RaLynn and I met about a year ago on a forum after the 35w bridge collapsed and everyone from MN on the forum was checking in. We thought we'd get together and just do some shooting together. She's got three kids and so we used them for our subjects...we had a lot of fun, but we definately did not have enough time before sun down. Here is RaLynn, Bill, Alex, Hanna and Hayley...what a good looking family! Alex... Hanna... Hayley... And Princess Hayley... Thursday night, we had a shower for my friend Michelle from work at Khoury's Restaurant . It is always so much fun to get together with people from work...away from work!! Check out this fantastic cake.... Michelle got some really nice gifts. This stork picture frame was so thoughtful and will be a keepsake! Great idea Mary! Michelle and Grayson and Karmen and Addison..both boys were born on the same day! Grayson has the most beautiful big eyes! Yep, got

Let me tell you, the 1st Annual Dorisfest was a BLAST! We had so much fun. Friends an family gathered and enjoyed Chili Galore...4 Big Crocks! "Sidecar to Saturn" blessed us with their presence and awesome music. It rained...pooh...so we didn't get to take them in for as long as we would've liked, but that is nature. Some people had never heard them before and everyone I talked to LOVED their music. Thanks for coming and playing at Dorisfest!! Okay before I go any further I have to apologize for not taking many pictures. There were so many people there that I rarely get to converse with and I was having a good time just hanging out. So I guess that is where the struggle is sometimes within me as a photographer. Do I enjoy in the memories or capture them...usually it is somewhere in the middle. My soon to be in-laws....aren't they just cute. I love them, they are such welcoming people. The sunset was beautiful that night...I don't think I got it at it's pr

On Sunday, it was off to the fair for new food, new ideas and great people watching!

I never thought the day would come when I would eat Chocolate dipped Bacon...and enjoy it. This was a brilliant combination...delicious! mmmm...then we had some homemade tator tots...hashbrowns with cheese, so
