It's 2011

Someone should have reminded me that's 2011. I am so far behind on keeping this blog updated. I have a few events coming up...so I will post information regarding them at a later date.

2011 is not just a new year, but it's a year for NEW BEGINNINGS. Some beginnings start when you are suddenly thrust into it and some just kind of sneak up on you. My new beginning was a suddenly  thrust! I will embrace it and move upward toward the prize.

I love it when a new adventure begin to take shape and growth starts to happen. I'm excited about where I am going even though I don't have all the directions. To God be the glory!

Sooo, in saying all of that...I am working on myself (with God's help of course). I will continue working on events and projects that touch my heart and inspire me.

Please stick around for the journey. There is something in it for everyone. Thank you for your prayers as I walk out my calling.

Merry Christmas "JOY"

Merry Christmas to everyone and Happy New Year. I pray that you and your family will be safe, healthy, and whole throughout the remaining days of 2010 and well into the new year.

We are nearing the end of another year and it has been a good one. I've had much fun in posting stories and events about family and friends in 2010. Most of the posts were about events that was held throughout the year and yet others were about the people we love. I hope you have enjoyed them as much as I have and are looking forward for more in the coming year.

Congratulations again to all my Brides and Grooms and pageant winners. Keep Christ first place in your family and you will always succeed in whatever you do. Thank you for allowing me to share in your special day. It was an honor for me to be there.

Here are some photos from our latest event; a Christmas concert in Fayetteville NC.

November Spotlight - Larry & Rachel Morgan

It's November and the end of the year is coming fast.


This month we are highlighting another one of our young wedding couples, Larry & Rachel Morgan. Larry and Rachel were married on July, 17, 2010 at the Rose Garden, FTCC, in Fayetteville NC. The wedding was officiated by Pastor Bob Bulls, Fayetteville NC.

It was a very hot July day, but the couple was cool and calm. Their wedding colors were crimson red and ivory. The bride worn a beautiful full length ivory wedding dress and the groom was dressed in a black tux with a red tie and white shirt. The brides' bonquet was a dozen of crimson red roses, arranged by her Maid of Honor and sister-in-law, Amanda Walters.

Around the beautiful fountain in the Rose Garden was the parents of the Bride; brother and sister-in-law of the Bride; maternal and paternal grandparents of the Bride; Parents of the Groom; younger siblings of the Groom; a host of out-of-state family and friends of the Bride and Groom.

The reception was held at Honeycutt Rcreation Center in Fayetteville NC. DJ Tommy King kept some of the guest on the dance floor, while caterer, Jeff Robertson, kept most of them coming back to the buffet table for seconds and thirds.

The event came to a close around 4pm and Larry & Rachel departed in style. Larry is in the military, while Rachel is employed at a private school. The couples' duty station is Fort Bragg, so they will remain living in Fayetteville NC for now.

This wedding was loads of fun to do. All made possible by the very fun loving and easy going couple.

Update since the wedding: Larry and Rachel is expecting their first child in April 2011. Congratulations to the two of them.

Happy Birthday Crystal!

This is my daughter Crystal LaShea Hart. She was born on July 30, 1984. I wanted to highlight Crystal this month on my blog because July is her birthday month and she's my favorite daughter. Crystal currently live and work in GA. I'm very proud of Crystal for all the things that she has accomplished this early in her life. My only desire is that one day, she will be married and have at least two children, so that I will have the chance to SPOIL them; but mostly I desired that she will follow the WILL of God for her life and live and love HIM above anyone else. Happy Birthday Crystal!. Love you much, MOM!
