Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas a day late. :) I hope everyone had a wonderful celebration with their loved ones. I was in Everett, Washington with the family for four days. Really enjoyed being in the Pacific Northwest, where we spent quite a bit of time out walking and taking in the landscape. I felt very inspired by the green on green colors - so many tall & lush trees, moss, pinecones, berries, etc. I wanted to take some photos of the trees, BUT my camera battery died, bummer!
Now it's back to life in Denver where we have a foot of snow and more on the way. ;)

Locks of Love

On December 11, 2007, Denver Divas held their monthly meeting at Tuana Hair Design located at 2500 West 15h Street Denver, CO 80211. This month there was a special mission for this networking group - get as many members to donate their long hair as possible to the wonderful organization - Locks of Love. I've been growing my hair out for sometime with the plan to donate it. I'll admit I was a bit timid at first walking into the salon, afterall, I've had long hair for sometime. My friend, Allison, was great moral support & photographer that evening. Also, helped that Nil, Kymberly and all the other Denver Divas cheered me on! Thanks girls!! Now I love the shorter 'do! Will I grow it out again to make another donation? YES! Here are some photos from the evening:

The Broadmoor wedding

Here's another Broadmoor wedding to check out. It took place August 25, 2007. Barry Staver Photography provided me with a fabulous selection of photos to peruse, thanks Barry!
Penny from Revelry Events was the wedding coordinator.

They are filled with hot pink hydrangea, orange unique roses, hot pink roses, hanging green amaranthus, mambo spray roses, mango callas, orange mokara orchids & pink veronica.

Fabulous Florists :: Ovando - NYC

Last time I was in NYC I stayed at the W in Times Square. The first thing I noticed when entering the lobby were the flower displays. Surprise, Surprise!
I picked up a card and while out exploring the city came across the shop. Walked in and chatted with the designer - she is great! Here's a link to their site:
