Okay so the river was a creek, but you get the picture! Mike and Brittany picked the dreamiest location for their family photos and the journey it took to get there made it all the more magical. We drove down a steep hill, through the woods, over a creek and I was half expecting to […]

Blessed. This past week, heck this entire year, has been such an overwhelming yet exciting rollercoaster and I can barely put into words how grateful I am for all of it. When I think back on this time last year, It’s hard to believe how much has truly changed. Last August, I was probably the […]

What I wouldn’t do to live just a little bit closer to this little cutie! Lincoln had me wrapped around his little finger from the moment I walked in the door and I would gladly make the drive every weekend if his parents would let me. All he wanted to do was stay awake and […]

No birthday is complete without a ride in a horse drawn carriage. I was definitely taking some notes on how to throw an amazing party last Saturday afternoon – stunning location, beautiful decorations, coordinating outfits!
