a repost.

i was browsing my blog today.. and a got bit teary from how the girls have grown and are growing.. it is all going too quick and i have been a bit of a weeping wilma because of it.. i have been journaling on here for almost four years..

it is awesome to look back on basically every week of that time..

it is just going to quick and i wish i could freeze it.

i came across this post i wrote about my husband and i just had to repost it..

after all...

it all started with him..

day 17 {favorite feature}

i love his hands because they feel so perfect in mine.

i love his hands because they have high fived me when things are awesome.. they have wiped tears from my face when they are not..

i love his hands because they slipped that ring on my finger when he asked me to marry him..

i love his hands because they drive him to work everyday where he works SO hard to provide a pretty swell life for us girls..

i love his hands because they have dialed my phone number many times..
even while i left for europe years ago and stayed for 6 months longer than i expected..

and still today.. just to say hi..

i love his hands because they color beautiful pictures with our daughters..

i love his hands because they are good at tennis, golf, basketball and even pouring a cocktail..

i love his hands because nothing feels better than when he simply places them on my knee while driving..

i love his hands because they are his.

happy father's day and thank you for asking me nearly 9 years ago..
to be your wife.

Wedding Albums

A wedding album is honestly one of the best purchases you can make.. I mean..

It tells the whole STORY of one of the best days of your life.. It is seen by everyone, forever, and many, many times over.. You would grab it in a fire, you will show your children one day, and 10 years later.. it will still make you tear up. I offer these albums to all my clients, you just throw it in your package.. I will design it, you will approve it before it goes to print and it is easy as pie to have this gem on your coffee table in a couple weeks.. 

it will make you smile really big when you get this gorgeous package delivered to your door..

I promise.
