Emily Hoffman-Smalling - Soiree Nouveau

Emily from Soiree Nouveau is one of my favorite wedding coordinators to work with. This weekend we went out and took some fun pictures for her website. It was a little bit cold but we had tons of fun. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a wedding coordinator!

Hope Begins In the Dark

Some of you know that my husband was a cancer patient at the age of 10. He was diagnosed with lymphoma and has been in remission ever since but one of the things that Jay will tell you is that it was one of the best things that ever happened to him. Anyway, I am writing about this because Jay was recently featured in a book called "Hope Begins in the Dark" by Jamie Reno. The book offers stories of 50 lymphoma survivors and Jay's story is one of the chapters in the book. His chapter, Camp Sunshine for Life, tells about a camp that is so very near and dear to our hearts. Jay was a camper at this wonderful camp when he was diagnosed and today he & I both spend a week during the summer with some of the most amazing kids who walk this earth! We are truly fortunate to be a part of Camp Sunshine and I am so excited that Jay was able to tell his story and the story of camp through this book!

The Sweetist Kids in Chicago!

This weekend I went to go and visit my wonderful family in Chicago. We had a few hours to take some fun pictures of the sweetist kids I know! My cousins Holly & Coby are parents to Brayden, Taylor, Connor, Logan, Lauren, & Parker. We had so much fun this weekend and I just love some of these pictures!

SNOW!

We finally got some snow it Atlanta and I was so excited because we never get to see this fun white stuff! I got a little excited when the snow first started and Peter, my dog, didn't really know what to think so the first pictures are just of a few snowflakes that I thought looked so cute on top of my puppy's head. Hope everyone else enjoyed the snow as much as we did!

Running around in the snow! He wasn't too sure about this stuff at first :)
