Bridal Portraits?

I am having my bridal portraits this Sunday. We were going to take them at the arboretum, but since it will be a scorching 100 degrees I think we would be pretty miserable!

So, I'm thinking about looking into a nice hotel in Dallas, the aquarium, or the old railroad house in Ft. Worth. Not sure what these people will charge to take pictures there though, boo!! Does anyone have any suggestions for indoor places that will allow brides to come in without paying an arm and a leg?

3 Months Away

I'm getting really excited! I can't believe we are only three months away. I know the time will fly so I am trying to soak it all in and enjoy it while it lasts.

Here a few highlights I'm looking forward to:

1. Matt man breakin it down on the dance floor:



2. Beautiful flowers like these



3. First Dances. I just hope I can make it through my dance with Dad. I can't even listen to the song the whole way through without crying.

4. The wedding shower coming up that these beautiful ladies are planning:





This means so much to me that they are planning my shower. I know it's going to be a fun day! Thanks to all of you guys!!

5. Seeing my family, cousins, and friends come together for one great night!

Sweet Caroline!

This past weekend we had a surprise birthday party for my precious niece Caroline.
Although she wasn't too surprised and somehow figured it out we still had a great time! We were able to swim at Steph's in that 95 degree weather.

Here's a great one of the birthday girl squirting her PaPa



There was pinata action happening as well. Her strong big brother,Ian, busted it open



Caroline spinning Haley



Steph spinning Ian, a lot!!
