Happy Momma’s Day… May 10, 2009

Seriously, you guys… what a pretty, pretty day! The sun keeps peeking out and it’s breezy and birds are all singing (all of them).

I’m sitting upstairs in my bedroom with the french doors wide open just listening to all the sounds. And blended with the right mix of sun and clouds is amazing. I will never take moments like this for granted.

I can hear the far-off sounds of kids playing at the park; a few random cars here and there; birds, birds, birds, and more birds (I swear some of them are ‘beach’ birds in the middle of Dallas!); someone is sweeping next door and humming a lazy, yet upbeat, jazz tune.

It’s odd… I don’t often sit and listen to random outdoor symphonies anymore. Oh yeah… I have 2 small boys.

Today Baba (their father) has taken them to the park. And I am left to this… peace.

Some very, very blissful… peace.

 

Happy Mother’s Day to all! May you have blissful moments of peace for days and years to come.

Dallas Wedding Planner a.k.a Karol Welsh… May 8, 2009

I would like to give a BIG personal and professional shout to Karol Welsh of Dallas Wedding Planner (www.dallasweddingplanner.com ). She has really given the lift and thrust to this venture and has, in more ways than one, provided a path that I hope will not only bring knowledge and excitement to planning your events; but bring a sense of courtesy, grace, and sanity to what can sometimes be life’s stressful moments.

Consulting, Planning, Organizing, or Managing… whatever the tasks we take on are a responsibility we choose to take out of passion and commitment and Karol has firmly bestowed these basics on us here at Voila la Fete. She has provided the map and encouragement to fully own and be proud of our paths whether it be with our career or in life.

I promote and encourage her as I would hope to be promoted and encouraged in the future and I wish her the best of luck in all her future endeavors.

Please take a moment to check out her site (her website, her blog; she’s on FB and Twitter) and give her a virtual hug as she deserves. If you are at all, or ever will be, interested in Wedding & Event Coordination/Planning/Consulting, etc. this is THE best bang for your buck; she will tell you the A1 important facts! (she’s listed on my Blogroll)

Karol, if you read this: I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the lessons you have taught me both professionally and personally and wish you all the luck with your future and that of your family.
