The weather this weekend was so beautiful! Aside from a little shopping with my best bud, we spent most of the days outside in the form of concerts, patios, walks, tennis and picnics. I know that in a few short months (or weeks - you just never know) the Texas heat will be beating down on us, so we are taking advantage of these 70 degree days. Love them.
Collection Photo shoot!
Yesterday, I had my photo shoot for my wedding collection with the sweetest wedding photographers, Lindsey & Beto Photography. It was so wonderful. While it took quite a bit longer then we originally estimated, Lindsey and Beto stuck it out to the end. From just getting a few peeks at the camera, I KNOW they are going to be amazing. I am so grateful for these two! You have no idea.
Between the three of us, we captured these photos throughout the day on Instragram. I love Instagram! (follow us @lindsey_joy, @morebeto, and @lauren_chism)
Happy Monday!
Tomorrow is tax day. Even though I was an accountant in my pre-stationery life, ever since I started my business and taxes are way more than a quick input of a few numbers, I've procrastinated until the very end. So I am pretty proud of myself that yesterday afternoon, I filed... two days early. That's not normally my thing, but you know, I don't need to rush to pay the government, like I might if it was the other way around. Yep, no refund this year... :(
On Wednesday, I have a photo shoot for my wedding collection and my room is a mess with potential props everywhere. (That's just a *small* sampling above - it got much messier after I took that photo!) I am so excited so have some professional photos of my hard work. Can't wait to share!
Font Friday: Jacques & Gilles
Oh wow. It's been a little while since the last font friday, but that's okay because I'm back with a really really good one....
Jacques & Gilles is the most recent release from the talented Emily Lime, the designer of my current favorites, Carolyna and Peoni. Right now, for a limited (and unknown) time, Jacques & Gilles is on sale for $17!!! (Likely will be $89 like the others, so that is a DEAL!). You can purchase it in her etsy shop or on myfonts.com. Your guess for how long this deal will last is a good as mine, so don't wait!

Featured: Paper Crave
Kristen at Paper Crave is featuring these sweet gender announcements on her blog today.
I am so excited to share this cute idea that I did for a former coworker who is due any day now (it took me awhile to get some photos taken obviously!) I love when clients have fun ideas and I get to help execute them. I was honored to be one of the first to know their sweet little secret and anyways, I share a little more about how Courtney pulled it off here!
