Happy Thanksgiving!

I thought you'd get a kick out of that one. lol!

I’m sitting on my couch with my little girl Faith watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Kerry is in the kitchen cooking and we have a fire going in the fireplace. On the table are things for dinner, including a couple of packages of yeast rolls waiting to be baked. I LOVE yeast rolls.

Faith is watching the show the same way as I did when I was a kid. The paper today is HUGE and FULL of after Thanksgiving Day specials.

As I reflect on everything that I’m thankful for I can’t help but smile. I have so many blessings in my life that I am so grateful for. I have awesome friends, a great family and a company that I’ve always dreamed of.

I am so thankful for the awesome brides I have! Just last night I got this email last night from Teresa, one of my amazing brides:

“Hi Delaney!! :)

You are the absolute BEST!!! And your timing is PERFECT! We just got to Warner Robins and we got to see them for the first time with my family around so it made it really special!!!!! :) Everyone LOVES them but mom says to tell you the biggest problem is going to pick which one is her favorite!! ;) Marcus said to make sure I told you hello and "thanks for hooking him up!" ;)

We had such a good time with you as well and truly could not be happier! Thanks so much for letting me know they were up! It was great hearing from you and again we are SO happy with our pictures!!! Can't wait to see you again soon!!

THANK YOU!!!!!!”

Another bride wrote me earlier this week:

“I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them! Today is actually my mom's birthday and she was so happy to see how they turned out. I had to wait until I got home from school to see them (silly high school restricted Internet) but you can bet I smiled all the way home knowing I'd get to check them out! Nick was actually looking at them online while I was driving and talking to him on the phone (cheater!), so I got his happy thoughts first. Thank you so much---I know we will treasure these! :) –Austin”

I have so many more emails like that. I wish I could just list them all.

How awesome is my job? I get the BEST and kindest brides ever. I am so thankful for every single kind comment and sweet bride I have. I love it when I become more of a friend than simply the photographer for the wedding.

But, I couldn’t do it without my staff. They are what keeps things going and allows me to create the images I do. I can’t think of anyone else who I would rather work with than the people I do now. I can’t believe how awesome of a team I have and when I go to work in the mornings, it’s always with a smile because I know that the day is going to be awesome. I love getting to do what I love every single day. Yesterday we sent several packages out that I know people will get over the weekend and be so excited to open!

I’ll be seeing some friends over the weekend I haven’t seen in a while and then we have Church on Sunday. It’s going to be a great weekend.

I hope you and your family has a great Thanksgiving Day and you enjoy all the blessings in your life too!

Delaney
