Really, I don't sit around eating bon-bons all day (I've got proof)!

Hola and TGIF!!!!!! Yep, still sleep deprived! We received over 3.45 inches of rain last night. Along with the rain -- thunder and lightening and one hysterical Blue. Actually after the power went out the 3rd time, he wasn't quite so crazy by the 4th and 5th power outage. I shouldn't say outage -- just a temporary loss of power -- long enough to turn everything off (haven't even thought about resetting the alarm clocks)!

So - I'm once again walking around in a fog (aren't you glad I'm not out driving)!

Ok -- back on topic. Seriously, I don't sit around on my tush eating bon-bons all day. I know -- if you knew me when I played golf everyday, jogged, lifted weights, etc.... you might be thinking "maybe not bon-bons, but you sure are consuming something)!

Lately, I've been doing some work for the fabulous Wellington Banquet & Conference Center, located in Wichita Falls, Texas.  I've enjoyed photographing the Wellington and getting to capture the rooms after they've been transformed from a blank slate into something unique and lovely!  It is, by far, the best venue for receptions, parties, etc.....

If you  live in the North Texas area, and are looking for a party venue,  give Lindsey Scholl a hollah at (940)696-1800.  I've come to believe that Lindsey works 24/7 and resides at the Wellington!  She is truly an asset to the Wellington -- and I'm so thankful that I've gotten to know her!

The Two Clever Chicks were the event planners for a number of the functions I've photographed for the Wellington.  Lolly and Cynthia are terrific ladies with an unbelievable sense of style.  Check out this link -- for some photographs I took for the Wellington at a recent Two Clever Chicks wedding reception.  I was totally blown away when I walked into the ultra devine-transformed rooms.  These ladies do an amazing job!

So, if you're wondering what I've been up to, check out these links to the Wellington and the Two Clever Chicks.

Now -- back off topic!  My lovely, soon to be daughter-in-law Emily has earned her Master of Education degree and will be receiving her diploma tomorrow morning!  I am so proud of her -- and wish her drive and ambition would rub off on me.  Would you believe I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up?  Seriously, I love the women in my son's lives -- and thank God for the blessings!  Way to go Emily!!!!!!  Woo hoooooooooo!

I hope everyone has a safe and totally relaxing (or fun if you need it) weekend!

 Rick just walked in -- and told me to check out this video. It is awesome! Please take time to watch "No Arms, No Legs, No Worries".
