Home Sweet Porch

Well, Jessica and Jimmy's wedding yesterday was so great. I'm loading all my cards now and I'm excited to get editing. In the meantime I was so happy to come home from the wedding yesterday to our new screen porch!!! Our house is surrounded by huge trees, we are basically in the woods. We love the location and the scenery but couldn't enjoy it because of the killer mosquitos that have been taking up residence on our back porch. So, I called Carlos at Carlos Construction for a free estimate and the price and timing was right! Let me just tell you, Carlos and his crew had this sucker up in 2 days!!!
I highly recommend using him for all your home improvement needs. Siding, Roofing, Framing, Sheetrock, Masonry...etc. They also do tree work!
Carlos: 404-886-1751

I shot these with my new Fisheye Lens to get the full effect. Obviously it bows the image out on the edges, our porch is not rounded:)

Jack was unsure about his new doggy door at first...But, then he got used to it:)

Chris and Jenna

Whew! Saturday was a hot one! But luckily it was easy to overlook the heat because Chris and Jenna's wedding was awesome! They got hitched at Brasstown Valley Resort in Young Harris. Weddings in the mountains are always gorgeous and this one was no different. Here are some of my faves from the day (although it was hard to narrow them down!)


Seeing Dad for the first time:)

I love her dimple in this..


drop. dead.gorgeous.

And onto Chris and the boys...

This one might be my fave of the day, just something about it...
Ready to go, Dad?
Just glowing!
First kiss...
...and another

The Reception at the Sunset Pavillion
First dance dip!
Teary-eyed dance with Dad
Cute kids!
This was a great idea for a summer wedding. They made their programs into fans for their guests:) I may have used it a couple times myself!
The reaction to the toastsCake time!
This is my other fave of the day...

And every good thing must come to an end:(



...off the Jamaica! Have a great time!

Lauren and Greg-Wedding Slideshow

I finally put together Lauren and Greg's wedding slideshow from back in March. I was waiting on their song choices for it. Normally, I would pick songs out myself for the slideshow, but I knew Greg's choice in songs would be something totally unique and songs I never would have thought of! I was right! I totally love the songs he picked and it completely fits their awesome personalities. So, the long awaited, but totally worth it slideshow featuring Seals and Crofts and RUSH!

In need of a loving home...

I know, 3 posts in one night! But, the hubby is downstairs insisting on watching scary movie after scary movie. So, instead of giving myself certain nightmares, I decided I would retreat to the office and blog away. So, here's what's next on the docket.

Meet Betty. Betty is Ben's old love.
A 1993 Toyota Camry that has been occupying our driveway for a year. It's time for Betty to go and maybe you or someone you know might be able to help.

Betty's a quirky old gal, and she's got quite a few "issues". But she's also a powerful beast when she decides to work. First, the great things about her...

-She's a Toyota!
-She's a V6
-She's got a kick-a$$ stereo system
-She's got beautiful brand new Firestone tires (purchased for $500 right before she decided not to crank anymore)

Then there's the bad news which I'll be completely honest about.

-She won't crank. We have eliminated the battery as a culprit. Potentially the alternator.
-She's got some self-esteem issues. She got into a fight with a Deer a while back. The Deer lost, but Betty suffered as well:(
-Due to this run-in, Betty's passenger side door won't open further than 2 inches. Unfortunately (unbeknownst to us), this door didn't really "shut" all the way either. This lead to a slight leak, which lead to the interior becoming wet...which lead to it being kinda nasty.
A little crusty. We didn't realize how bad the mildew was until I opened the door for the first time in a year to that heavenly aroma. (Hey, I said I would be honest)!

So, basically if you were interested in taking on a new project, or knew someone that fixed up old cars, this could be a great deal for you! She might need new upholstery (or a good interior scrubbing), a door fixed, and potentially a new alternator.

Here are a few more pics:

Oh yeah...this too. Easy fix.

This is Betty's sister. She actually runs like a charm. Betty's jealous.


We are asking $500 for her. This is basically to cover the cost of those tires. But, we are willing to negotiate considering her extreme circumstances. She would also need to be towed from the bottom of our steep driveway.

But hey, who doesn't love a challenge, right? She's a great gal and will run another 100,000 miles + if fixed! (*she has 159,000 now.)
