Katie & Dave {engagement}
It seems like it was just yesterday when I answered a call from a very excited bride by the name of Katie Wholey.  I am not sure that brides come more excited than the likes of Katie, mostly because her enthusiasm hasn’t waned since that very first call! Every time I talk with her I realize just...

Remember the Days…

Remember the Days…
