Places to go... Lions to see

2009-07-31T09:01:00.001-07:00

One of the things I enjoy most in life is thinking on good times, but sometimes my memory isn't as good as it should be for a twenty-something. So, when Daniel and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary last month, I wanted to do something special to help us remember a few of our good times.SO, I bought tacks, a cork board, and a map to aide in our memory journey to all the places we've been

We're pretty used to weddings (especially wedding pictures) by now, so I [Martha] usually don't get emotional during them or when looking at a couple's pictures. HOWEVER, Kari & Justin's wedding must be an exception to the rule, because not only did I tear up during their wedding ceremony, but also while editing their gorgeous, emotional images. I hope you all enjoy this sneak peek of Kari &
