Blog Spotted: Travie McCoy

My new summer beat is "Want to be a Billionaire" by Travie McCoy. I'm planning on hitting up his concert in Indianapolis in August. First, I checked out his blog and I like what I see. Keep it up, Travie. I'll see you soon.

He does a good job with this Lazarus Project.

Best Wedding Cake Topping

Wedding Number Three was unlike the rest.
Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Chris and Amanda Pahls. May your lives always been filled with laughter. With a wedding cake top like that, I can't imagine anything else for you two.

I loved their wedding and reception location, outside Limon, Colorado. It was a big, beautiful, red barn set in the most beautiful part of the rolling hills in eastern Colorado. The weather was wonderful.

I've been taking notes with a summer full of three wonderful weddings this summer. One most-have is the photo booth that they had set up in the barn. They had polaroids and deposible cameras set up along with props including hats and mustaches. Check out Alex and I.

Blog Spotted: The Notebook Doodles

I have been blog spotting and fell upon a blogger who loves something that I love: doodling. However, she is quite good at at! Also, she seems like to like quotes that I also like. Maybe we are a blog match made in heaven. Visit The Notebook Doodles blog.

Wedding Season: a time to be thankful

Wedding Season! This weekend I'm headed to Colorado to celebrate the marriage of Chris Pahls and Amanda Taylor. Before I celebrate too soon... Let's take a look at my cousin Alex's wedding! Which I loved for many reasons but I will just name four.

Reasons I Loved Mike and Alex Downing's Wedding

1. Mike and Alex's love for each other is real.
I've liked Mike from the moment I met him. Seeing him become a part of the family was really great.
2. Spending time with my baby brother.
Payton has grown into a great young man with a sense of humor that could make me wet my pants. I still picture him 5 foot tall with a buzz cut playing with pirates. He has grown up since then but will always be my little brother.
3. Bringing Alex to meet the family.
Alex has quickly become a huge part of my life. Having him meet my family and hit it off with everyone so well not only was a relief but insured me that God has provided me with a man unlike any other.
4. My family.
I was able to enjoy my cousin's wedding because I have the best family a girl could ask for. They make me laugh all the time. Most importantly, we all know how to have a good time. Plus, we're all really attractive :)

My Multimedia Reporting First Story

This is the first of four stories I will do this summer for my Multimedia reporting class – easily one of the hardest classes I've ever taken.

Check out my story and feel free to comment! I worked really hard on this and hope the next three stories can be even better.
Enjoy!
