Cover Shot


Donna McSpadden is the most amazing woman. She has always been the woman behind the Man, but she is a legend of her own . It is sad to say that she lost the love of her life last year. She is a beautiful and strong Lady.



I met this wonderful woman when I was ask to do a shoot for a magazine cover. I walked into her house and immediately she made me feel like I had known her all my life. Honestly, I wish I had.



I went to this job with the attitude of yippee My First Cover and came away with WOW I met Donna McSpadden- one of the most remarkable human beings I have ever known. Not to say that I am not excited about the photo, because it did make the cover and Yes I am over the moon with excitement.






This is a magazine that is for all women not just cowgirls, so don't let the title fool you.



THE WEDDING

The Happy Couple
The wedding was a success. Busy, Busy, Busy. Friday was decorating all day then the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. We had BBQ brought in and boy was it good. Saturday is just a few hours away. Whew! Lots to do.


The actual ceremony was probably the shortest in history. Long enough for the ring bearer to give us all a show. Lil E was hilarious. What do you expect from a child that wasn't even two yet?


Got him in the palm of her hand!

They both looked amazing on their Day. Son in a Tux. What can I say, I am used to seeing him in wranglers and then to have him in a tuxedo. Handsome!

Jennys gown was beautiful. Her hair was beautiful. She was beautiful.


What a beautiful wedding
Their is nothing in the world that will compare to watching one of your Sons get married to the girl of his dreams. We couldn't be happier with the choice that he made. She is absolutely wonderful.


And They Lived Happily Ever After


(check out the boot she has on)

BRIDALS


I had the pleasure of taking my future Daughter-in-laws Bridal pictures. It was a lot of fun and a lot of work. Of course we did pick the windiest day of the year. Of course we did, why wouldn't we?

We took most of them at Will Rogers Birthplace, and a few more in town. For those of you who do not know Jenny, She is a cowgirl and Rodeo was her life, all her life. So with that , these are not your typical Bridals. But they are fun and they are HER. I enjoyed taking them and still enjoy looking at them.



Is this not the Bomb?
I LOVE IT!!



This one is too cute also!

Jenny I cannot wait to take more, so be ready. Thank You!

ENGAGEMENT

In December my Oldest Son proposed to "Jenny". It was a shock and it wasn't. We all knew he would , we just didn't know when. He surprised all of us. Jenny had wanted to go see the Christmas lights at Rhema Bible College the year before and the big Ice Storm came in and destroyed it , so this last year He said he would take her. That's where he proposed to her. So sweet!!

So with that done the wedding plans were ON!!
Lots of planning and lots of pictures, starting with the Engagement Pics.
If any of you know my son, He hates having his picture taken, so this took all of 15 minutes and DONE!



Aren't they a cute couple!


This one was Jennys request. Cute!

Does anyone else notice those skinny little legs?

Maybe tomorrow I will have the Bridals posted.

I'M BACK!!!

Don't know where I've been, but I am back. So much has happened in the last couple of months, that I don't even know where to start. I/We have been so busy and I still for the life of me can't really tell you what we have gotten done.

Hopefully I will be a better blogger from now on. I don't promise ANYTHING. I know your life totally depends on this blog. I do promise that "I enjoy this".

OMG I just looked it has been 4 months. Where did that 4 months go?

I guess one of the last post I did was about the ring. Well I gave it back! Said I didn't want it that it was just not me! Yea Right BLING BLING I STILL GOT THE RING!!! That was in March and I guess shortly after that I ate the pancake bake and went into hiding.

April is a tough month -My Brother and Dads birthdays are in that month and that is the month that my brother(only sibling) passed away. Dads was four months later in August, same year. Then May came and that' s the month my Mom passed away. I know this has nothing to do with me not blogging but I now realize that my brain just went on break. Couldn't think and really just didn't want to think.

Then it was June the month of Brides. My oldest son got married and now I have a daughter. Yipee! And yes I will post some of the Bridals (which I took) and of the wedding (which I didn't take) The wedding was nice but Oh lord was I tired afterwards! I honestly cannot imagine being the Mother of the Bride! Whew! More on this later

Then it was July and that is the month of going to the lake every weekend, except this year The Husband went on a bike/fishing Trip for ten days and I got the brilliant idea of remodeling the downstairs bathroom. Well really it started out with Just painting and then BOOM it was the whole darn room. How do I get myself into this crap? I do not know! This is also the month of My birthday which I have a feeling that my wonderful husband FORGOT AGAIN. Not totally sure , but have a feeling. I think Melanie saved his little butt!

I have taken some pictures lately, one of which was for the cover of a magazine (and yes I was quite excited) and some newborns. But that is also something that I need to go full steam ahead on too.

I will break it all down a little later and put up pics and more detailed stories
I does feel good to be back!!!!!!!!
