Syd A. in Community Conversations, on October 18, 2011 at 4:32 PM

We get 2-3 outfit changes for our e-pics shoot. We'll be taking pictures on an indoor basketball court and outside at an arboretum. These aren't my specific outfits, but the concepts will be the same....

Syd A. in Community Conversations, on July 27, 2011 at 11:19 AM

And moved in together! It was a crazy weekend though. My FSIL went MIA when she was supposed to help us, and then she "forgot" that she had to work. Luckily, her boyfriend helped us. Poor FH had to...

Syd A. in Etiquette and Advice, on July 5, 2011 at 1:05 PM
