Welcome to Life Stories...

Welcome to My Life's Story! Mine is made up of so many wonderful people-purposfully woven together! Everything we do is with and for each other and I am so glad that you have taken the time to stop by- so grab your favorite cup of coffee and Enjoy!

What I love most: my family, my friends, my son's giggles when he thinks he is getting away with something... great conversation, anything with a good title, bold coffee, anyone with a zest for life, exciting and fresh ideas, anything crafty, getting my hands dirty, dancing in the rain and weddings! (all weddings!)

I am happiest: when I can share what I see through a lens. Just as there are no two people alike, neither are views on life. I strive to uniquely photograph any event or person so their style can easily be seen.

Celebrating Gwen...

I think one of the things I love most about this stage of my life is the simple fact that it is o.k. to have a bachelorette party without strippers... If it's your thing, I have just left more for you I guess... but we had a such a nice evening with a really classy group of women. (And you too Carl....)

We started off at Gwen and Matt's with so much food and champagne- as always, Gwen totally out did herself! (And Matt being the great guy he is helped her all day with cleaning and getting ready for the big night...) Harry, from A Luxurious Limo, picked us up in a beautiful Escalade Limo ~ and I have to admit, as hard as I closed my eyes Monday morning and tried to imagine a stocked bar, great music and a driver, I couldn't get past the smell of spoiled milk and the sound of cherrios under my feet. And my reflection in the mirror only reminded me that like the maid, chef & dishwasher I have at home- it is still only me behind the wheel... {sigh}

Seriously, we had a great time at The Gypsy Comedy Club in beautiful St. Augustine! As always, my very dear friend (and "aunt") Jackie was an incredible hostess! I have to admit that it is one of my favorite places to go when we have a chance to get out for the night. We always laugh and have such a great time and this was just that! But better with so many of us to cut up with! The Comedians were Shane McConnaghy and Faye Woodruff, a.k.a. "Grandma from Hell". If you get the chance, go see them both- they are super funny and very personable to hang out and chat with!

Thanks to everyone who came out and celebrated with Gwen and helped to make this her night!

Yeah!! Too fun! I wish we would have gotten some of the limo outside the house. I can't believe you and I both forgot! :(

I had a blast. I'll upload my pics tonight. I was going to do it last night but I was so exhausted.
