grand opening party

i know the grand opening party happened over a month ago, but i finally have some photos to share! i was so excited that night (surprise!) that i forgot to take a single photo. thankfully lauren's dad, michael happened to be there with camera in hand! and even more thankfully he is an exceptional photographer. the party was so much fun and there were so many people who showed up to support all the hard work that has gone into building this bakery. thanks to everybody who came to the party & thanks to everybody who helped make this dream into a reality!
