Rain or shine, sometimes the show must go on. Here are two stories and tips about how we dealt with events that decided to go on despite the weather.
Why Hire a Great Photographer?
Photography is one of those things that we sometimes forget about when it comes to events. My most recent encounter with this was a few weeks ago. I wish that I had a professional photographer to document Gardner's 1st birthday. Because there is so much involved in the details of your event, taking photos can often slip your mind. Having a great photographer can truly make a difference. Which leads me to the Spartan (again).

Monkey Man Turns One!
It was a success! We hosted Gardner's birthday party last Saturday and had such a fantastic turn out of family and friends. Everyone around me was incredibly helpful, from Jerry vacuuming and power washing, to my mom making her delicious spinach salad, to my mother-in-law running to the store for some last minute food. Take a look at some of the photos!

Sitting on suitcases - Another Study Tours story
It was just over 6 years ago that I packed up after my first summer running my own site in Los Angeles. It has been a fun and exhausting summer. I was responsible to get half of my staff to the airport that morning, we had a very early flight to catch! I made the arrangements, but nothing prepared me for what would happen that morning.
How to Avoid Hostess Neurosis
Today marks a special day for me. Just one year ago I gave birth to Gardner Merritt. This year has been the fastest year of my life and I can't wait to celebrate his birthday with him later today. Although his party with his family and friends is not for another week and a half I have been busy planning this momentous occasion.
