A few months ago a friend of mine on Facebook posted she wanted to pursue her photography business and build her portfolio and it couldn’t have been more perfect timing because we (I 😅) wanted new family photos since losing almost 100 lbs! Heck, we’ve all changed so much in 2 years…. It was time.

So I messaged KM Photography and asked her about scheduling us a shoot! I didn’t know what to expect but these turned out so cute! 🙌🏼😍

Thank you for your unwavering patience, schedule availability, and for sticking out a few mosquitos with us to grab these photos! I can’t wait to send them off and get the old ones out of the frames! 🩷

I’m headed to Bentley’s soccer game, so I’ll be going through everything afterward and our winner will be announced tomorrow morning! ⚽️🩷

And speaking of growing… look what showed up just in time. 👀

Support Studio EC has Mae’s Sweet Retreat getting all official for event season with brand new business cards on the way! 😍 She also made me a digital version to keep on my phone, so when I inevitably don’t have a business card on me 😂 you can still scan the QR code and find this week’s menu + follow along on Facebook.

Watching this little business grow from baking in my kitchen to having actual branded materials for events is still a little surreal. 🥹

Huge thank you to Support Studio EC for helping me get ready for a VERY busy fall season. 🩷

Giveaway winner coming tomorrow morning! 🎉

A Guyton family took a hit no one can ever be prepared for. 💔

In a matter of minutes, they lost their home, both vehicles, and so much of the life they had built. Thankfully, this family of three — and their cat — made it out safely, but now they’re facing the overwhelming task of starting over.

Olde Towne Barbers is collecting donations to help with some of their immediate needs, and I wanted to share this here so we can get as many eyes on it as possible. Every little bit adds up. A gift card, toiletries, snacks, clothing, household necessities — whatever you’re able to contribute can help take one thing off this family’s plate right now. 🧡
📍102 N Laurel Street, Springfield, GA

AND for my Guyton friends: Nicole Leithauser with Penny’s Provisions has graciously offered to be a Guyton drop-off location! 🙌 So if getting donations over to Springfield is difficult, you can drop them with Nicole in Guyton and she’ll make sure they get to Olde Towne Barbers or to Gabby at Sweet Southern Charcuterie & More LLC.
📍4036 Blue Jay Road, Guyton, GA

This is one of those moments where our little community gets to do what it does best — show up for our own.

Please read through Olde Towne Barbers’ original post for the family’s current needs, share it if you can, and help however you’re able. 🧡

Springfield drop-off ➡️ Olde Towne Barbers
Guyton drop-off ➡️ Penny Provisions

Even if you can’t donate, a share costs nothing and may put this in front of someone who can. 🫶🏼
