Last month I (Rebekah) had a mile marker birthday. 30 always felt like the age that was so far away. I used to tease TJ, prior to his turning 30, and say it was SOO old. Well, my time came and it was wonderful. It wasn’t hard to turn 30, and I don’t feel old (which I know i’m not). More than anything it is just strange to actually be 30. By my age, my mom had 3 kids already…wow! I clearly remember my moms 30th birthday party too. It was a fun costume party where my dad was a creepy looking clown. LoL!
Anyway, I know my 30’s are going to be wonderful……I know my life is going to be wonderful. I’ve got a husband who loves me so much and is always doing whatever he can for our family. I’ve got the love and support of all my family and friends. I’ve got a job that I absolutely love and am so excited to see where it will take me. But, most of all, I’ve got a God that is watching out for me and who comforts me daily. I really am blessed.
So, to celebrate this big birthday of mine, TJ threw a super fun party for me at the Roxbury Nightclub (an 80’s/90’s club in Charlotte). He invited all of our close family and friends and had food catered from both Bombay Grille and Buona Vita (both in Charlotte and both great restaurants!). Oh, and I cannot forget to mention that we also had a YUMMY ice cream cake from Carvel! It was so great to spend time with everyone and then dance the night away. I felt very loved that night! My mother inlaw even flew in for the festivities!
TJ really outdid his self! He was a wonderful host and took some super fun photos of the night. I think I’ll keep him around. Who know’s what he’ll for for my 40th, 50th, and 60th!!??!! LoL!
Thank you to everyone who came out that night and made it so fun! I love you all!!
I’m sorry your eyes are closed, Will!
This awesome bag was made by my Mom!
Oh hey there, handsome man!
Thank you, TJ, for making my birthday so wonderful. I love you forever! <3

We recently did a photo shoot at Optique Eyecare. They are brand new to Fort Mill and the staff is wonderful. It was great to be able to welcome them to the area and provide them with great images for their upcoming mailers as well as their website. They have a great color scheme and the way it is set up is so welcoming.
If you are looking for a new optometrist, definitely check out Optique Eyecare/Eyewear.
Welcome to the neighborhood, Optique!

It is always inspiring to see dreams become reality. So many time we wait around for that “big break” and are not driven enough to make things happen. This is not the case for Author AnnaLisa Grant. Over the past few years she’s turned an idea of a story into a young adult trilogy called THE LAKE. I am currently reading it now, and it’s good!
TJ & I were very honored that she chose to hire Charlotte Photography to take her head shots. We had such a fun time during the shoot and provided a beautiful assortment of images that she will be able to use for various events and publications.
As a friend, I have been so encouraged to see AnnaLisa make this happen. How exciting it must be to see your work published and to hold an actual copy of your book in your hands. I know AnnaLisa has big dreams for THE LAKE and her new journey as an author and I’m excited to see where this journey leads her.
If you would like to stay up to date on THE LAKE, please go follow Author AnnaLisa Grant’s Facebook page, as well as her blog.

Her book is currently being sold at Amazon as a Kindle download and a Paperback. If you have a Kindle, it’s only $2.99!
Congratulations, AnnaLisa! You are doing amazing things and we love you.
And here is what the front and back cover look like! Can’t wait to get my own copy of this book in my hands, especially since our work is featured on the back cover too.
