I really got to have fun and let Kace do all the work! It was at Mother&#8217;s Next Door and we had a great time! Erin Steen, the same florist who did the flowers for my Wedding, also did the flowers for their Rehearsal. Beautiful! I was so happy to be able to spend so much time with Chris and Jen during this special time. I took a whole week off of work! :) Thankfully they picked a Wedding date that was during my slow season, so I thoroughly enjoyed myself and was able to soak it all in. Now it&#8217;s back to the grind! I can honestly say though, I have loved every minute of my free weekends, vacations, time with family and friends, home cooked meals, etc.. The next 3 months are my busy season and I have never been so ready to go for it!! I am feeling refreshed and inspired since I had a little time off. Back on the saddle &#8212; here we goooo! I love my job and I am so incredibly blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful people!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" title=\"cj_reh_0002\" src=\"http:\/\/jenamato.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/cj_reh_0002.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" \/>The favors we made: little bundles of Hubig pies, Zapps, Crystal Hot Sauce &amp; Barq&#8217;s Root Beer &#8211; NOLA Favs!<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"p3-insert-all size-full aligncenter\" title=\"cj_reh_0013\" src=\"http:\/\/jenamato.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/cj_reh_0013.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" \/>We draped their Engagement photos across the favors table.
