Thank God For Vacations!!!



This past week Amanda and I planned a trip to Myrtle Beach. We stayed in her mom and dad's time share condo in South Myrtle. We had an awesome time. I was so glad to relax and take it easy. Usually when I go on vacation, I will still take phone calls and answer emails, but this trip all I wanted to do was relax and enjoy a vacation with my wife. It was beautiful every day till the last day when we left. Of course we ate out a lot and when we weren't eating out, we were eating in with Kripsy Kream Doughnuts. YUMMY YUMMY!!!! I must have eaten a dozen donuts while I was there. This vacation is probably our last vacation for quite a while since our baby Jase is on the way. Here are some pictures from our trip.



Our favorite thing to do is just layout on the beach!!!



Our beach house....I wish! Just some colorful homes on the beach.



Amanda's niece Maggie playing under the pier. I thought this was a cute picture.

Our view from our Hotel Room we stayed at one night. Yea, it was like a vacation on a vacation.

The New Franklin Park!!!!!








B.E.A.utiful is how I can describe the illumination of the Palm House at The Franklin Park Conservatory. I had the honor of providing the music for both the "Zen Terrace" and "The Grove" which are the new rooftop gardens during the grand opening. Franklin Park has added three new spaces at their location. Well, actually four. They have the two gardens, the new Veridian (an indoor space), and a brides garden. This venue is absolutely amazing as you can see in the pictures. But seeing it in person is a total different experience. I too am excited to be co-hosting the "Cocktails @ The Conservatory" every Thursday night which will be a 21 and over crowd mingling and hanging out as they enjoy some create cosmos. I highly recommend Franklin Park to any bride or any person planning an event. You will be 100% satisfied with their staff as well as Cameron Mitchell, their in house catering. Please call Lauren, Jessica, Colleen, Brandon or Dave to schedule a tour of Franklin Park.

Running Into People You Know

Amanda and I were out shopping at Cosco's today and we ran into Jim Sanders and his wife Jane. We had a great conversation about our weddings we did this past weekend as well as a show we will be working together here in the near future. It's funny when you are working a wedding everybody is dressed up in their finest attire and then to run into them just out and about in shorts and a shirt. If your not careful, you may not recognize somebody you work with quite often. I always love running into other vendors and discussing wedding stuff. I know it sounds funny, but I just love my job!
