As a professional photographer in the Philadelphia area, I covered Dwight as a high school senior during a basketball tournament in Trenton, NJ. Those photos are still being published; the most recent was in the “NBA Stars in High School” photo gallery SI.com’s website

Peyton Williams Manning (born March 24, 1976) is an American football quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts of the National Football League. He is widely regarded as one of the best quarterbacks of all time, and has the record for most NFL MVP awards with four. He was drafted by the Colts as the first overall pick in 1998 after a standout college football career with the Tennessee Volunteers. He is the son of former NFL quarterback Archie Manning and the older brother of current New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning.

This was such a great event. Veronica was the brain-child behind all the design and decoration and I was totally amazed when she told me that she was not a professional event planner -SHE SHOULD BE!!! She covered ALL of the details, from really cute “Save the Dates” to the chair backs to some AWESOME meatballs!!!

Congratulations Veronica!!! I want to personally say THANK YOU for serving my country for 22 years!!!

Baby Jalise just celebrated her 1st Birthday -she’s walking now and well on her way to the “terrible 2′s” phase ;) She definitely has a mind of her own and I had no idea that a baby could be so opinionated.
