The two things that crossed my mind when I first glanced at these photos were, Oh my word that venue is amazing! And, wow! That photographer is talented!

Read MoreConfession: I haven’t yet seen a single episode of Downton Abbey (gasp!). [From the editor: I have! At first I wasn’t too sure about it, but now I love it!] But that didn’t stop me from getting completely lost in these photos! With the show on her heart and the goal of bringing some sweet and […]

Read MoreHere in the Midwest we anxiously await the start of summer. After all, it means late night walks to the local ice cream shop, street festivals, days by the lake, and (my favorite) lightning bugs.
