Wedding album

My wedding was about a year and a half ago and I don't know if anyone else struggled with this, but I had no idea where to start with my photos. I knew I wanted them in an album of some sorts but how could I even start that process? Groupon constantly seems to have deals for this kind of thing, so I bought one. It was with Photobook America. We spent $35 for $115 worth in a photobook. We downloaded the software and went to town creating pages filled with our favorite pictures. We decided go big or go home since this was our wedding, so we went over the $115 for the groupon and made the book as big as we wanted. In total we spent $175 for huge Wedding album with all our favorite pictures. I highly recommend this if you are still wondering what to do with this photos. I know most photographers will do them as well, but they are generally really expensive ($500 price range) and this is a much more cost efficient way to go!

Goodwill=Good Fortune and Groupon=Grouptastic!

By no means am I a hardcore goodwiller, but I am a sucker for a good deal just like the rest of you and as they always say "One man's garbage is another mans treasure".

I found this at the Maple Valley Goodwill and it cost me $40, I feel like I had a room makeover when we moved this piece in. It is missing some knobs, but who doesn't love an excuse to shop at Anthropologie right?:)


Have you ever wanted to quit your day job and join the circus? I know I have. Since childhood I always wondered if my true calling involved acrobatics...still do to this day...



Groupon has been a gift and a curse to my life! groupon.com offers MAJOR discounts on anything from food to events. Every day there are several deals in your area, made to entise and convince you to spend money and do crazy things. For $35 a piece my friends Kate Shields, Janna Rose, Molly McCoy and I were able to take a 2 hour trapeze lesson. It was AMAZING and I highly reccommend this place. Located in Seattle near Safeco field it is called Emerald City Trapeze, the regular cost for this beginners class is $48. DO IT!!!!!
