We Have a Photographer!

One of Erica's photos.

Isn't that exciting? Her name is Erica Price, and she runs a place called Sparrow Photography here in the KC area. To check out her website (and some of the pictures), visit www.sparrowphotographykc.com. We met with Erica back in January and just recently sealed the deal by putting down the initial deposit. She is a very nice young lady who is extremely thoughtful and has great composition of her photos. Both Marcela and myself have a somewhat artistic view of how wedding photographs should be taken, so we like the fact that Ms. Price takes some artsy-looking pictures that will really capture the essence of the event. For part of the night, she will be shooting candid pictures of family and friends who are in attendance, so make sure you're looking sharp. You never know who might end up in our wedding book!

Updates

Slowly but surely we are getting this thing planned!

Last weekend I went dress shopping with my Mom, Tia (aunt Carmen) and Sandy (MOH). After trying on what felt like 100, I finally found one that I just fell in love with. To be honest, I really didn't want to take it off. :) It was a lot of fun spending time with the girls, and I don't think I have ever felt more beautiful. It has also been great fun torturing Kyle with knowing about something he doesn't.

Just this morning we solidified the roles of all the Groom's cousins in the wedding. We are really excited for all of them to be a part of our day. (See the sweet pictures below.)
Flower Girl: Katy Baker
Ring Bearer: Derek Baker
Candle Lighter: Jenna Baker
Ushers: Mitchell Rogers and Bradley Cook
Guest book and Gift attendants: Marlee Rogers and Haley Cook

I am starting to feel like all of us are coming together and I love being a part of this new family that Kyle and I are joining. If nothing else I am sure that there is going to be a lot of love and fun around on our wedding day.

*This blogging thing is kind of fun. You may be reading more from me in the future :)
