A Day at the Lake!!!

May 31, 2010

Memorial Day

I enjoyed a wonderful day at the lake with great friends and an amazing second family. My best friend in the entire world invited me to the lake for the day and of course I went. We left bright and early that morning and arrived around 10 at the lake house to find everyone asleep. Everyone quickly woke up with me being there, because we know there is so being quiet with me around. HAHA. We enjoyed the day by sunbathing, riding the boat, tubing, wake boarding, and relaxing. Just what I needed that day. Before we headed home we enjoyed a wonderful meal of BBQ and baked beans, and chips!! I was exhausted when we got home and went to bed.

Mr. and Mrs. Jeremy Kimbrel

Ashley and Jeremy met not many months ago but they new from the first moment they met that they were soul mates and wanted to share their lives together. Jeremy popped the big question to Ashley in February and started the journey of planning their perfect wedding. Even though the weather was not the greatest Ashley and Jeremy would still have the greatest wedding. The wedding was held at Alridge Garden in the front of the house where there is a pathway that leads to a beautiful Archway where the two were married. The nasty weather stopped for the ceremony but then continued all through the reception, which was held under the pavilion. It was perfect to hear the rain all around us coming down as we danced the night. We enjoyed food, music, and dancing with the newlyweds.

Congratulations JEREMY AND ASHLEY!!!

Sips and Strokes!!

May 26, 2010

My friend Nicole and I went to Sips and Strokes for a girls night out! We had a blast together as always. This was our first time to go together and we became hook. We were very nervous after looking at the picture we were going to paint. We were painting two funky margarita glasses. We just kicked back and started painting not caring what we were doing, and our paintings turned out great. It was a fun night and we were already planning many more time to come back.

Bridal Portraits

Ashley Daniel’s Bridal Portraits

Ashley and I have been friends since the summer before my freshman year of HS. Ashley was my big sister in high school and she became a lifelong friend through anything and everything. I was asked to be part of one of the most important moments in a girls life, her bridal portraits. I was honored that she wanted me to experience this special time in her life and would not have missed any second of the day. We started off around 10 in the morning, we went to get her make-up done, then rushed to get her hair done. We then went and got her in her gorgeous dress. Then headed out to Helena to start the picture taking, after about 2 hours here we headed downtown to Morris Avenue to take the rest of the pictures. Here are a few shots from the day. She was gorgeous and the pictures were amazing thanks to her wonderful and talented photographer.

Mini-Baby Shower

May 4, 2010

Westin Heath Waldrop

Mini-Baby Shower for Ashley W.

One of my best friends from high-school Ashley Waldrop is welcoming her second child in July! Our little group of girl friends always does some sort of shower for special occasions in each others lives and wanted to do something for Ashley. We all decided that since she had already had a big shower from her family we would do a mini-shower for baby Westin. We all chipped in on the pack and play that she wanted and then all got a little something extra. Lauren Crooks graciously opened her home up to us to have the dinner and shower. We all brought something for the meal, and enjoyed time together. We are so excited for Heath, Ashley, and big sister Ava Reese to be adding another gift from god to their growing family. I cannot wait to welcome Westin to the world and for him to join the second additions to our wonderful group of girlfriends.

I love you Ashley!!!

Mr. and Mrs. Josh Griffin

Josh and Laura have been together almost 8 years, they are made for each other in so many ways. Every time I watch them together you can see the love in their eyes for each other, it is truly an awesome sight. I have watched their relationship grow over the years and am so blessed to have them be apart of my life. Their wedding was held at “Bentley’s on the Bay” in Santa Rosa Beach, Fl. It was absolutely perfect and gorgeous. The ceremony was held outside and perfect, then we all went inside to enjoy drinks and food at the reception followed by dancing the night away out on the deck. There were two things I absolutely loved about their wedding,. First, they had put all the special dates in their relationship typed out and framed on each table, and second there party favors were sunglasses with the date of their wedding. Laura is so creative!

Congratulations JOSH AND LAURA GRIFFIN!!!
