July 27, 2010An unexpected little visitor was in my garden today…I just love Hummingbird moths!!! They are so unique looking!! I wish I could have gotten a few more pics, but an unidentified little red-head scared it away…LOL!!!!

Kelly and Mike – Married!!!
July 26, 2010I think I am just going to start adding this blanket disclaimer to all my weddings…”So the forecast called for an 80% chance of rain on Kelly and Mike’s wedding day and we didn’t get a drop, rather, we got bright blue skies, big puffy white clouds, and humidity!!”. Yep, that about sums up every saturday so far this year..LOL!!!!! So anyhoo, Kelly and I go way back…WAY BACK…how far back, I don’t even remember..its been that long..haha!! We went to school together, were band geeks together, and through the magic of a little site called Facebook, were reunited right around when she got engaged, talk about good timing! LOL! So when we met up, Kelly is wearing a Weird Al shirt and I think to myself..wow…nothing has changed!! Yes!! This should be a good wedding! Hahaha!! So fast forward to the wedding day and I get to the church early and hear the organist practicing the Star Trek: The Next Generation theme song. Nice! They had a beautiful ceremony, with some custom (and pretty funny) vows..such as…allowing Mike to listen to his heavy metal and to Mike not eating Kelly’s gluten free food! After some church pics, we headed out to Lindemann Elementary school to take some playground pics. That was a flashback since I went to that school and can very vividly remember playing on that submarine as a kid!! Then it was off to the reception hall where the Star Trek theme showed! The guest tables were not numbered, rather, they were named after iconic Star Trek characters and such with the head table naturally being “The Bridge”..LOL. Then after getting your table assignment, at the door of the hall was Captain Kirk and Spock to greet you in..nice! Then there was the cake…yea…I chucked a bit when I saw the cake topper!! All in all, it was a super fun day, I got to see some old friends I haven’t seen in many years. Kelly and Mike, it was my pleasure to spend the day with you and I had so much fun!! Congrats you guys!!! ♥

Best sunset I’ve seen in a loooooooong time!!!
July 23, 2010We got ZERO rain today…it seemed to storm everywhere else but Clarkston!!!! But hey…at least Mother Nature made up for it with the best sunset I’ve seen in a long time!!!! Oh yea, and PS…Mother Nature…Should you decided to have it rain all day for Kelly and Mike’s wedding…at least have the decency to throw out another sunset like this..oh, and since it is a Downriver wedding..as much as I would really, Really, REALLY like to see a tornado at some point in my life…please do not make my dream become a reality tomorrow… LOL!!

July 21, 2010Steve and Hellen – Married!!
July 19, 2010Hellen and Steve are very good friends with my cousin Tony and it was at his wedding that Hellen had approached me and said “If and when my boyfriend proposes, you are doing are wedding!!!”. Well a few weeks later, guess who I hear from, Hellen!!! Steve wasted no time! LOL! So it was supposed to rain on their wedding day, and, like so many other times this summer, the rain never showed!! Yay! But we did have some wicked heat and humidity! They had a beautiful ceremony at St Mary’s Catholic church in Royal Oak and afterwards, we stopped at a few parks and 7-11 for a Slurpee run!! LOL!! It was HOT and those Slurpee’s were so good!! ahahaha!!! After baking in the sun for some pics, we headed off to the San Marino Club for some dinner and dancing. It really was a beautiful day and I had so much fun with all their friends and families! Congrats you two and Happy 8 year anniversary!!!! ♥

Nick & Jessie – Married!!
July 19, 2010I had never met Nick and Jessie prior to their wedding day since they live out of state. So I find the bride’s room at the church and scan around…hmm…no bride. Then in walks this gorgeous glamazon and the first thing I do is look at her feet and see she isn’t wearing heels…LOL!!! It is not often I feel short around other girls…so…yea… Jessie is tall (5’11″!!), beautiful, and a real sweetheart as I came learn. As I got to know these two throughout the day,it is so apparent that they really are meant for each other. Nick is just about the worlds biggest UofM fan (no really…I think he is..LOL) and as their friends and family said it best, these two truly were meant to be together after she witnessed a “post UofM loss Nick” and didn’t run away scared..LOL!!!! Honestly though, you could just tell how much they loved to be with each other, oh, and their fur-baby Wrigley…I was so excited when we made a pit-stop on our way to Wyandotte to go pay a quick visit to their little sweetie!! Their reception was held at the fabulous Arnaldos in Riverview..which is a gorgeous hall!! Nick and Jessie… It was truly a pleasure to be a part of your wedding, I had so much fun with you guys!! ♥
