I have a little secret... Today is my birthday!! Right now we are traveling home from WPPI, one of the world's largest photographer conventions, held in Las Vegas. No doubt it's been a week of learning, dreaming and of course EATING. I'm sure I'll have lots to share with you about our trip when I return to the blog next week! But, today, I couldn't help dedicating a J'Adore post to my ultimate birthday wish list.

Why shouldn't I indulge in a little imaginary shopping on my birthday?! Won't you join me as I fill my invisible cart with these wonderful goodies?! I'm making a stop at some of my favorite stores! And if you're looking for a little belated birthday gift for moi, here's a cheat sheet;) Enjoy my ultimate birthday wish list, have a great weekend. I'll see you next week!

1. I've been coveting a Kelly Moore bag for a few years now. I love this version in camel!

2. These Tiffany earrings are just darling and I love them!

3. I LOVE all things Kate Spade and this iPad case does not disappoint!

4. Who knew that L.L. Bean made adorable accessories?! I discovered this clutch and it immediately made it's way onto my wish list!

5. Of course Anthropologie would make it's way on this list! I've been desiring this vase for a few years. Wouldn't it be perfect for my red and white kitchen?!

6. I'll add the matching L.L. Bean purse! I'd love to have an everyday tote like this!

6. I love this chunky necklace from Anthropolgie! Love!

7. We'll most likely be replacing my used CR-V with a new used CR-V this year. But I couldn't help this money-is-no-option addition to my ultimate birthday wish list!

Happy Second Birthday Blog!

Blog, you are two years old today. Two years old. How time really does fly.

I began writing here two years ago with a small dream tucked away deep in my heart. A dream that I desperately wanted to see happen, but was afraid to speak into reality. And yet despite my lack of confidence and faith this blog and business has grown continually, into something completely beyond what I could have imagined.

I dreamed of owning my own business and becoming a full time wedding photographer but, I never truly believed that it could happen. And yet. And yet here I am running a small business. Wow.

This blog, this business, would not, could not, exist without your love. Without your support. Without your encouragement. I write here for me, to document my life and the lives of my couples. And I share that with you. But what continues to amaze me is what you share back with me. The love you show for my couples and the support you have shown this business and blog just overwhelms me. Because of you I can live out my dream. I can live the life I love. I can share life with you, dear readers.

So Happy Birthday Blog!

What would a birthday blog post be without a little celebration? And we did just that yesterday in our little kitchen.
