My husband and I are forever grateful to our wonderful parents who gave us all the opportunities that they didn't have growing up. After our wedding celebration, we wanted to say thank you and show our appreciation. My parents and my in laws both have their albums on their coffee tables. My in laws have wall art in their living room to remind them that although we no longer live there, we are always there for them and his grandparents have portrait boxes that they proudly show off to everyone (along with those baby pictures!)

Let us help you say "Thank you" to your families!

While I was driving this morning, I heard this song on the radio and it mentioned that "the days go slow but the years go fast" and it resonated with me because we all know that there are some long days, even long weeks, where everything is just a little crazy and there doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day. This is when I try to take a step back. Today, I realized that it's almost JUNE. The year is almost half over. The little moments in life are the most important ones.

Gen and Jonathan's Castle Manor Inn wedding had all of my favorite things. Gen's sister created all of the centerpieces and they had a basket of handkerchiefs from her dad's collection. They had mini measuring tapes as their favors (nestled in little crocheted bags - handmade, I might add) and they ended their night playing hilarious games like Snake Oil Salesmen.
