Mr. & Mrs. Jonathan Knight...

Oh my... I'm behind! Let's start BEFORE I left for South Dakota. December 30th 2010!
Laurel married the love of her life... Jon.

I was blessed with the opportunity to take their wedding photos - a first for me, and boy was I a wreck! So nervous!

I am completely pleased with how they turned out... and here are some of my favorites.
The Bride waiting for her Groom...
Her Bouquet... His Hat...
The First Look... Hands down ... Favorite shot of the day!

And the Father, who took over at the last minute... forgetting their last name during the presentation of the couple.
The sweet newlyweds arriving at their reception venue.
And I got one of the Bride's father (Bruce) Dancing with each of his three girls... Hope.
Laurel.
And the love of his life... Rose.
The Best man and Maid of Honor toasting the couple... "May the Force be with you"
All day long, Laurel kept telling me how wonderful it was to be surrounded by the people she loved most in the world for her wedding day. This photo exemplifies that for me. I love this shot so much.
The couple ordering a drink.
The best man and his cape and saber... wonderful!
The Delicious cake... thanks for the no berries lady!
And the best man handed over his saber to let them cut their cake, it was so perfect!
Congratulations to the new couple... Have a wonderful new year building your NEW HOUSE in Texas - we can't wait to come visit (some day)!

Not bad for my first "Professional" wedding.... :)

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

8 Years Ago Today...

 8 Years ago today... I was in the Kent/Des Moines Park and Ride puking in the bushes because I was SO Nervous about my first day at KMS. I didn't know If I could hack it in the big city. I didn't know a thing about being a Receptionist, and I didn't even know what a Broker/Dealer was, but I swallowed the lump in my throat and decided to take it head on. I've learned SO MUCH - an Immeasurable amount of life and work lessons from my 8 years at KMS, and I could muse all day long about the Farm Fresh 22 year old you see to the left and how naive she was. KMS has given me a gift of balancing a work life and a home life and still being able to give my 110% when I'm at work without losing my balance. When I walked in the door this morning, my co-workers had created this celebration from me, and after they arrived, it got bigger with gifts, and notes, and cards, and decorations. They wanted to celebrate me, and my achievements here, though If they would have kn...
