Finding the right photographer for your big day can be a daunting task.  When my daughter looked in the phonebook and called the guy with the ad that said “Photographer Houston Texas” I thought she was nuts.  I told her to be sure to look at his portfolio and talk with him for a while.  When I got married I picked the photographer the same way and I was miserable.  He followed my husband and I around annoying us thru our whole wedding.  That is a day that you never get back.  Be sure that you have a good feeling about a photographer before hiring them.

The park has been around for almost one hundred years.

I have known for quite some time that my daughter felt that at the age of 15 she was more than ready to go to her first concert without an adult escort. I kept telling her that until she was 16 there was no way. Well we have managed to keep the peace between us about this and now she is turning 16 in a week. So for her birthday I got her tickets to see a country music concert by someone name Miss Underwood. I have no clue who that is but I know that my daughter does because she has at least one of her albums, she will be very thrilled when she finds out.

Before I got pregnant with my daughter I had the cutest butterfly tattoos on my stomach. I got really big when I was carrying her and after she was born my tattoos looked sort of stretched out. they never looked the way they did before I had the baby. Even funnier was the way they looked when I was 9 months pregnant! I was fortunate that the tattoo artist who did the original work was able to embellish them and they now look better than ever. I had the artist add flowers and greenery around the original design of butterflies.
