Kayla will be placed on the transplant list tomorrow

Oh and here we go again!! For those who don't know I met Eve and her family last year when they asked me to build a website for them to help raise funds for her daughter's liver transplant. Eve has 3 kids, two of which have GSD which is a rare metabolic condition that mainly affects the liver. Last year her youngest, Liberty, had a liver transplant and so far things are great for Liberty!!! Now, Kayla will be going through the same thing! This is very hard on the family for obvious reasons. Please keep this family in your prayers. For more information visit GiveLibertyLife.com

Happy Belated 4th of July!

OK, so I'm a little late posting this but....:)! I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday! We spent ours enjoying the fireworks at Taylor Farm Park. Our church was there handing out water, glow sticks and playing cornhole!! A great time was had by all & enjoy some of the fireworks pictures. I actually used a tripod something I don't do often but when you are doing 45 second exposures...you need to use a tripod :) ! Enjoy!!!

Congratulations to Yvonne & Craig

Yvonne and Craig were married back in April as well....I'll say it again...I told you I was behind:)! They were married at The Legacy which is were they live. Their family went all out in doing up a real nice wedding for them & Yvonne looked beautiful. I decided to post some pages from their album which ended up being a 50 page album. I use Graphi Studios to print my albums but I do design the layout myself. Graphi Studio's albums are just so awesome and truly become a family heirloom......enjoy the pictures!
