Just a Little Feel Good story

AJS0401

Hi Ladies,I received some fun news today that I thought I'd share with the rest of you.  HK Photo Studio located on Brookline Blvd. was holding a contest about a month and a half ago on the most unique engagement stories.  I came across the contest as they were one of the photographers at the time that I was considering using for our wedding.  Mine and FI's engagement story is kind of unique so I figured what the heck and I submitted our story to the contest.I got an email today from them telling me I was their "Popped the Question" contest winner.  Our story won us a 16x20 metallic print matted and framed.  I know it's not a huge prize but I never win anything and that is something great that we can display at our wedding and keep in our home for years to come!You can go to their blog to see our story!http://hkphotostudio.blogspot.com/ Have a great evening everyone!!

Thanks girls - he did a great job :)Jweiss11 - OMG - My dad and I used to go to Isley's alllll the time for breakfast when I was little - he loved the "hometown deli feel"  It really is such a small world, haha.  It's very hard - not only not having my family/friends here - but it's SO gosh darn expensive here it makes me sick.  I don't see how we'll EVER be able to afford a house here - which really makes us consider relocating again.  The only thing is that FI is from here - so at least we have his family, if we go elsewhere we won't have anyone! lol - so much to think about!!
