T H E  W I N N E R   I S………………………..

Short and sweet – us Moms do it all. And we deserve to win something fun now & again, right? I contemplated offering mini sessions in honor of Mothers Day – but I really liked this idea instead. I’m all about supporting local businesses and this is doing just that! I encourage you to thank each of these gracious sponsors for their contributions. They sure didn’t have to do this. I’m very thankful for their support. Without further ado, let me show you the prizes!!

Here are the 7 prizes along with links to their websites & Facebook pages.

Emack & Bolio’s :: Website | Facebook

Emacks is such a GREAT little ice cream shop & every time, you will see the same two dedicated owners serving their ice cream with a smile! Wonderful family place!

Fired Up :: Website | Facebook

Fired Up is a fantastic place for you and a girlfriend or your kids! You paint your own pottery – the possibilities are endless here & the staff is fantastic!

Heights Flowers Greenhouse :: Website | Facebook

Simply THE BEST flowers (and more!!) you will find in the area along with employees who will help with whatever you need! I used to work there – it’s a wonderful business!

Johnson Family Chiropractic :: Website | Facebook

Dr. Kyle Johnson’s office utilizes safe and gentle methods of adjustment – he is very calming and informative.

Picture This Gallery & Framing :: Website

Cheryl Dean has a lovely custom framing shop in the Heights – this would be my recommendation on where to get your portraits professionally framed.

For runners or those looking to get started – THIS is the place. Their passionate team will help you with all of your running needs.
