Photo A Day, May—Week 2
Can I just acknowledge the first two photos of my week are cake related
Pankratz Wedding Save the Date
Can I just say that I love my job as Amie's matron of honor and wedding designer? Seriously, this year I think I've seen my best friend more than the last couple year's combined. While I am so happy that her and Matt are getting married, I am also selfishly happy because now I get to buy a new dress (or two or three for showers and such :)) and have a blast crafting away with Amie! One of our latest projects is compiling her Save the Dates. Her amazingly talented wedding photographer took their engagement photos in March (see more photos here) so we got to include those in the Save the Date as well. It was another scrapping night for Amie and me but they came out so beyond adorable! First off we created a monogram and did most the writing by hand which we then ordered custom rubber stamps of the final design. We really wanted to keep the handmade look we achieved in the engagement party invites so we rubber stamped the edges and then used decorative tape to hold the photo in place. For the front, we waited for the photos to be taken to be able to design around whichever

Ali and Amy, Cal State Fullerton Best Friends, College Senior Portraits in Downtown Fullerton
Can I just say I wish my best buddy in college and I would have taken senior photos together! Because these two CSUF-soon-to-be-graduates were just too much fun! Ali and Amy met while attending Cal State Fullerton and their friendship started from being the two quirkiest honor students and only grew from there over these last few years. We started out in Downtown Fullerton, stopping at the cutest apartment complex ever, then at a church, and then walked the alleys between the shops along with one last pitstop at a park to fit in some greenery. Ending our night back on the campus where it all began

Another Year of Babies, Brides, and BBQ (March & April)
I really thought life couldn't be crazier than it was last year, but this year has seriously been insane! I am so blessed with the work that I have been doing and get to do, but I am ever so thankful for these babies and being the matron of honor to my best friend bride to be, Amie! Oh and I guess I am thankful for BBQ too. ;) Babies! So so many babies! From the ones turning 1 and the newborns and the ones still getting ready for their arrivals! Owen This last month we celebrated little Chunk's first birthday. He has changed so much these last two months, losing so much of the chub and is looking more and more like a little man. And of course, celebrating his first birthday just made me think all the more of the day he blessed Jamie and Joey one year ago! P.S. He even got his first haircut last week! So looking forward to seeing him in person! Grayson After not seeing Grayson much this first part of the year, I got to make up for it so much in April alone! We got to go and visit our friends in Redlands right before Kyrene had little
