There are a few little housekeeping details that I needed to share with all of you faithful blog readers!

1. The Basic’s Workshop is now officially closed! We have a GREAT group of photographer’s coming from all over Virginia to hangout and talk photography ALL DAY! I’m so humbled and honored that people are interested in coming to my first EVER workshop. It’s going to be a blast!!

2. Lisa was my 1000th COMMENTER on the blog! YAY! I was soooo excited it just happened to be one of my latest brides! Lisa you should receive an itunes giftcard shortly!(Buy you some Whitney Houston girl!)
.
3. I had such an awesome weekend with friends and family at Virginia Tech! The fun started on Thursday when my bestest friend Caroline randomly surprised me and showed up at CNU! I could have cried! I absolutely loved my time with her, sitting at panera all day Saturday and just catching up. She’s wonderful and I am such a better person because she is in my life!
.
I had an engagement session Friday night and late that evening I met up with Michael and my brother Corey to travel to Tech! We arrived at 2:30am! Kudos to Michael for driving the WHOLE way and letting me just sing. ha! We had an awesome weekend and got to go to the homecoming game. Emy is doing so well there and I just love that she loves it so much! She’s such a die hard hokie. Michael and I both agree that we have lived our “big school” experience through Clemson and VT. We love it and we can’t wait to go back!
.
Enjoy a few favorites from the weekend!
Gotta’ love her.
Evidently this means “Key play!” …. I realized this at the END of the game, don’t judge me!
Flip it around and it’s the state of VA. Very impressive marching band!
Kayli and Caroline!
Thanks for reading!
