Neutral or Bold

Party Connections says, “2012 style swatches are showing us either palettes of complete neutrals or shockingly bold pop. Use blush, peach, and taupe or jade, cherry, and tangerine. Bridesmaids are being mismatched in their own, bright attire and fresh cut flower alternatives such a big paper flowers or succulent plants are adding a more sustainable approach.”

Are you a 2012 bride? What are your wedding colors? Are you going neutral or bold? Let us know!

Attendees at the King Holiday Celebration enjoyed various activities including arts and crafts for children, courtyard vendors, local radio station remotes with on-air personalities and special guests, and Joe Cornelius “The Hatman” performances.

We hope everyone had a great time!

Some runners choose to become part of the St. Jude Heroes team—a nationwide group of everyday athletes with a common goal of finding cures and saving children. In 2010, more than 6,000 Heroes from across the country raised more than $3 million for the children of St. Jude. The effort of the Heroes team inspires hope in children who are battling cancer and other catastrophic childhood diseases.

Here are a few pictures of marathoners running the race from over the years:

St. Jude was founded in 1962 by the late Danny Thomas. On average, 5,700 active patients visit St. Jude each year, most of whom are treated on an outpatient basis. The hospital maintains 78 inpatient beds and treats upwards of 230 patients every day. St. Jude is solely supported through donations and fundraising efforts, and the money raised from this year’s marathon will undoubtedly help keep their doors open.

Good luck to everyone running the race this year! Our very own marketing manager, Beth Wilson, will be running the half marathon and we wish her the best of luck!
