City and Colour at Jannus Landing

On October 3, 2013, I had the opportunity to go see City and Colour at Jannus Live in St. Petersburg, with my friends who were in town for the weekend from Toronto.  My friends are big fans of City and Colour, but I didn't know much about the band prior to the concert.  The music was great, and it's always nice to see a Canadian act here in Florida! Good times, great music, great friends!

Clearwater Beach - The Best Place To Watch A Sunset in USA

Clearwater Beach is currently in the running for the best place to watch a sunset in the USA.  It's long been my favourite place to watch a sunset, and here are just a few of the reasons why.  These photos were taken on a rainy/stormy day in September... even the clouds couldn't dampen this gorgeous scenery!

Vote for Clearwater Beach here!

What do you think? Best place to watch a sunset in the USA? I think so!

Happy First Birthday, Matthew!

It's hard to believe that one year ago, my one and only nephew was born! It's even harder to believe that I never shared his newborn portraits on the blog.  Since I can't be with him to celebrate today, here are those portraits, one year later.

Happy Birthday, Matty Moo!  You have brought endless joy into our lives.  I love you,  muffin!

Published on Wikipedia!

Just wanted to share a quick screenshot - I was asked if I would give Wikipedia the rights to use one of my photos of Danny Michel from the 2010 Outlaws and Gunslingers NXNE set, and I obliged! Here it is:

Family in the Photobooth

I was blessed to have been born into a super awesome and fun family!  For my niece's birthday, I created the Life's A Beach theme, which you may have seen over at my other blog, Superflash Creative.  Since her friends' party was held on her actual birthday, we actually hosted two parties in one day!  First, the friends came over in the afternoon, and later in the evening, the family came over for a celebration.  Since the decor was still up from the first party, we decided to have a bit of fun in the photobooth!

 

       

By the way, you can download the props for FREE, right here.  The bunting printables, with the rest of the party decor, are available over at Etsy.
