Cake : Danville Bakery - on Hartz Ave, Danville (yum)

What a beautiful, princess perfect party for such a sweet baby girl!  And she is just adorable and the apple of her daddy’s eye!  (I adore that!).  Little S was a trooper even as the night got later, she hung in there for the dancing and her birthday cake! (which was very yummy!).   Kelly and everyone did a beautiful job with the room.  Happy 1st Birthday Little S!

Thank you for letting Celebrate with you!  Heather

I hear on the radio yesterday that people who share their resolutions find it easier to stick to them.  Maybe because people with call them on it if they slip? Or they think people will.  Who knows.

But the last few years I didn’t do resolutions at all.  This year I am…some are serious, some are stupid.

1. Reduce my intake of Coca Cola by 95% (there is still 6 bottles of Mexican coke in the garage)

2. No more of those wonderful iced cooked from the Safeway bakery - those are pure evil.

3. Photograph at least 10 weddings this year ( that might be my physical max - but we will see).

4. Photograph at least 1 wedding in Europe this year PLEASE!!!! ANYONE

5. Read all the books I currently own before I buy more - I’ve already started a list of those I want

6. Knit from my stash 80/20 (you never know if you need just one more skein)

7. Quilt from my stash 80/20 rule

8. Learn to make granny squares damn it!!!!

9. Plant an Apple Tree

10. Have a more abundant garden than last year

11. Leave without a credit card

12. Book 20 High School Senior Session (2010 Seniors) between now and April 2010.

13. Book 80% of my wedding for 2010 in January because of MY 10 YEAR Anniversary surprise…stay tuned.

14. take a vacation with just my husband - that isn’t to Vegas - nothing against Vegas.

15. Take my family on a camping adventure…in an RV…heehee.

I think that is a pretty ambitious year…but I thing it can be super fun.  My biggest goal is to keep God and my Family first and every else will fall into place.  Right now I’m going to grab a cup of coffee and finish working on a quilt I started a few days ago.  It’s good to be quilting again…to be doing other things I love doing.

This has been a tough year.  Not just for me, but for many, many people.  And not just for my business.  I became ill in 2008 and it has taken almost 20 months to feel decent.  I took 2009 off of weddings because I didn’t know if I could physically do them…it’s hard to run a business with 80% of your income gone…lol.  And that darn economy…well it sucked.

On the up side, I spent a ton of time with my family. Learned how to dye and spin my own yarn (don’t ask) and slowly, very slowly am feeling more human.  oh and we got a puppy.  A spazy box/lab mix named Marli (we didn’t name her and she wouldn’t be renamed - we tried) she is crazy, fun and beautiful.

So how is it looking for 2010.  I’m ready to roll!  I’m planning a moderate wedding season - so book early! There are limited spots this year! And because it’s MY 10 year wedding anniversary (crazy huh!) this January I will be running a Wedding Promo - details in a few days!.

And Baby’s!  I want those babies! and High School Seniors - this is the season - 2010 Graduates only have 4 1/2 more months to get those awesome senior portraits done before announcements and party invites go out to family and friends!!!!  And in June/July I will be looking for 2011 Models! (Free Sessions)

There is a lot I’m looking forward to…getting back to weddings is one.  I’ve missed being with brides.  I’ve missed all my favorite vendors…I’ve missed wedding cake.

So stay tuned over the next couple of days for the January Wedding Surprise to celebrate MY 10 Year Anniversary!!!!
