We had a wonderful experience at Greer this week at our family portrait session. I won a free…read moreFacebook portrait session ($1000 value) for a 14 x 14 portrait. We finally found an appointment that worked for our family, and spent just over an hour at the studio. We first met Leann and her mother, Winne. They were super nice and friendly to help with our two small children. We did 5 or 6 different poses, two for family portraits and 3 or so with the children solo and together. After about 20 minutes, we were ready to view the photos. So we went upstairs to meet the other sister, Kelly. Kelly's job was to make you feel comfortable and able to review the photos on the big screen. They had a great area for children to play while you review the photos and narrow it down. We opted to go with the next size up from our free portrait, which end up being $1,000 and then added a frame for it, which was discounted to $400 for us. Kelly offered the 12 photos we liked as digital package for $200 but I declined as I didn't think I'd print them. All in we spent $1,484 for a framed portrait. I can't wait to receive it in March! I'll update if there's any issues with the portrait but I think they know what they are doing as they've been in business for 40 years.

Holifield Youth Salute…read more My daughter just completed the process. To me The Central Kentucky Council on Youth Leadership seems to be a meaningless organization designed to extract dollars from parents hoping to get scholarships for their children. Searching the internet for Central Kentucky Council on Youth Leadership doesn't go anywhere except to Holifield Photography. There appears to be a strong relationship between Holifield Photography and the National Council on Youth Leadership. Jim Holifield is the National Director of Chapter Development. Kudos to him and his civic involvement. Here is the basic process as I went through it with my child: My child filled out some paperwork and submitted it. We were told my child was accepted as a Youth Leader. Trip to Lexington to have the photo taken. Trip to Lexington to view the proofs (you have to pay in advance if you want to see the photos on line, which locks you into a $150 minimum purchase.) You don't have to purchase pictures, but this is how funds are generated for scholarships and other things Holifield Photography gives out. Trip to Lexington to pick up the pictures you purchased. From my perspective, the pictures weren't remarkably better than photos I've gotten from other studios. $175 if you want the storyboard collage that is put on display. Parents/volunteers move the display boards around. Trip to Lexington for the awards ceremony (which lasts most of the day) if you want to be eligible. Transylvania University provided the venue and free lunch. Asbury University, Eastern Kentucky University, Georgetown College, and Transylvania University each gave out five $4,000 scholarships. Recipients were decided by each university's selection committee, but I have no idea what the selection criteria was. Two $500 scholarships from Holifield Photography. I have no idea what the selection criteria was. Five ACT - SAT Courses valued at $500 each from Class 101. I have no idea what the selection criteria was. Five $100 Leadership Awards from Central Bank & Trust Co. I have no idea what the selection criteria was. $50 certificates from Class 101 for a Class 101 course. Six $1000 trips to Town Meeting on Tomorrow, St. Louis from Holifield Photography. I have no idea what the selection criteria was. 55 Awards Top Youth Leader from each high school. I have no idea what the selection criteria was. One Award Central Kentucky Youth Leader of the Year. I have no idea what the selection criteria was. One Award Lexington Youth Leader of the Year. My daughter is not attending a Lexington High School so was not eligible. I have no idea what the selection criteria was. Far more important, to me anyway, was more than 200 students didn't get anything other than an opportunity to put on a college and/or scholarship application they were selected by the Central Kentucky Council on Youth Leadership as a Youth Leader. And starting last week I began receiving emails from Holifield Photography selling High School graduation photos. From my perspective, the Youth Salute is as meaningless as the National Society of High School Scholars, except it's far more expensive.

No words can describe it's beauty so I won't even make an attempt at it. I've been to a lot of farms and this is by far the most gorgeous. While attending the 41st annual Kentucky Bash held at the tent area on the farm, I learned that the owners of Donamire allow Cardinal Hill to host the event on their beautiful farm as their donation. That makes me want to contribute to the Ball family all over again. I don't know if they give tours or not, but if you ever get the opportunity to attend an event here, do it! I sure would love to learn more about this beautiful part of the Bluegrass!

I've been to Donamire Farms twice in my life, both for family reunions, and it's a beautiful setting for such, where thoroughbreds run along fenced rolling Kentucky countryside, and swans float gracefully over placid waters. Horse barns, with interiors kept far more pristine than my boys' bedroom, dot the landscape. A guest house set a couple acres off the main house also lines the circuitous road that travels through the grounds. It, too, is as opulent as the main, albeit a bit smaller, but larger than any place I've ever stayed. It is all a very pleasant backdrop to seeing those I don't see often, likely not often enough.
