- With the start of this new year, I have loved reading and seeing how people are kicking off the year. Some of you are goal-driven and some of you have shed the idea of resolutions altogether. Either way, hurrah! I am convinced that knowing what you need and embracing it is what "fills your well."
Of course, we ma[...]

- Hello and Happy New Year!
Did you see the New Year Wish List video?
I thought that maybe instead of New Year’s resolutions, we could just make some wish lists for this New Year. Check it out now. (Don’t worry…I’ll wait here while you do that.)
Going forward, I’ll post our Barbara Bell Photography videos to our F[...]

- For the past year on this blog, I wanted to highlight client birthdays and milestones once a month.
You see, I love birthdays. I think milestone events like the day we are born are a big deal. These are the details that make up our lives.

- Personalized Photo Candle
A few weeks ago, I went out to the Southpoint Mall to do some errands. One item on my list was to look for a particular scent of a Yankee Candle, Macintosh Apple.

- The lights were dimmed low. The tables were laid with casino chips. The bidding went high…
and all to Save the Fox. North Carolina Superior Court’s Judge Carl Fox, that is.
This elegant evening was a way to raise awareness and support bone marrow registration, as well as donation, after Judge Fox valiant[...]

- Every Veteran’s Day, I receive the sweetest phone call. It’s from my mother who rings to wish me a Happy Veterans’ Day. My husband is also the second sweetest of these greetings. He unfailingly recognizes my service as a veteran. I was still serving when he and I met and started dating, and I think wearing that unif[...]

- I've been a wee bit quiet on the blogging front...and boy have I missed it! There's something so peaceful about sitting down to write. It's a chance to quiet the busy-ness in the world, and focus on one thing at a time.

- I always have high hopes for September. It could be the teacher in me because I often think Back-to-School time is the time to start new projects. Fall is the time to celebrate and get ready for the holidays.
That said, September was a scorcher in terms of temperature. The leaves were changing colors and fall[...]

Held at the Fedex Global Education Center, this local community group put on a fete to ring in their new club year. With new and current members mingling, chatting, and nibbling on savory[...]
