Weddings, Weddings, Weddings

April has been a month FULL of weddings!  Nic and I have literally had a wedding every weekend so far- April 2nd-Sarah Garrick & Kyle Brewer,April 9th- Lauren Ann Greenlee & Michael Cooper and April 16th-Courtney Price & Lee Fairchilds...I must say...all 3 were WONDERFUL and we had a blast at each!
I've broken by small digital camera and hate carrying the big Rebel everywhere so I've missed some great photo op's lately=(

Here are a few pics from Lauren Ann's beautiful wedding. The reception was at "The Knox House" in Kilmichael, MS.

Rehearsal Dinner @ "The Lodge" in French Camp

Some of the bridesmaids'
(FYI-the beautiful black dress that Lauren Ann is wearing (the back is lace-GORGEOUS!) is Valentino-her fiance' surprised her with it after she fell in love with it at a trunk show @ Ballin's-He called the next day and had them hold it for her...I THINK HE'S A KEEPER=)

Isn't she beautiful?! Her robe says "Mrs Cooper" -I gave her this for her b-day and it made my day to see her wear it on her WEDDING DAY!!!

Spring.....

I've been an awful blogger lately-I just can't ever seem to find the time anymore. I'm traveling this week so sitting here in the hotel gets pretty boring..its either write a report, shop, workout or blog... I'll begin with the blog!

Hard to believe its already April-where has the time gone? My last update was about the patio and needless to say...we've gotten LOTS of use out of it so far. We've already utilized the patio space a few times since we finished it in February. When I'm in town during the week, Nic and I try to meet for lunch at home and we'll eat

outside on the patio-which has been fun since the weather has been so beautiful. Now that its spring and time for roses, the red maple and other beautiful plants to bloom, I'm going to enjoy it even more. I LOVE SPRING!
