Happy Birthday Sam!

Whose Birthday Is It Anyway?
...The one and only Samantha Goldberg.

Today Anthony and I are attending Samantha's red carpet birthday bash at The Castle at Skylands Manor. We can't wait and are very excited to celebrate with her! Sam always has a treat up her sleeve, so I am wondering what kind of surprises we're in for. I am sure this will be a celebrity and fun-filled event...stay tuned for some pics!
Sam, we can't wait to celebrate with you!! See you in a few hours...
Love ya, Cathy & Anthony

Photopoof Fun!

Forget any ideas you had for a guest book at your wedding. Photobooth is the way to go... you can even add a scrapbook option! It is so cool, I wish I had done it for my own wedding. Guests go crazy over it and agree it wouldn't have been as fun of a party without it. This is the one treat guests don't mind to stay in line for. Check out NJ Photobooths by Josh Lynn.

Sharing some of the fun...getting silly in the photobooth with Josh was fun...

Here's proof how much guests enjoy photobooths...
