Carry The Load (@CarryTheLoad) in Little Rock Recap on THV11 (@THV11)

Filed under: Carry The Load,Presentation — Emily Reeves @ 12:18 am

We had a long, hilly walk in the rain in Little Rock tonight for Carry the Load. I was so honored, overwhelmed and filled with joy for all the support my friends, family, colleagues and Arkansans that came out to help fulfill the mission to bring back meaning to Memorial Day. I will be writing more and sharing more photos in the coming days, but here is a nice summary from THV11 in Little Rock tonight.

Little Rock Film Festival 2013 (@LRFilmFestival): A Great Experience

Filed under: Culture,Girl Gets Geeky — Emily Reeves @ 7:52 am

I had a great weekend in downtown Little Rock watching film festival movies, listening to panels and hanging out with cool people. I am so proud of the city for continuing to host this event and I have been pleased to watch it grow every year since 2007. If you missed the Little Rock Film Festival this year, be sure to catch it next year. You won’t regret it. I’ve included all the photos that I took below. Here are the films and panels I was able to catch:

  • Diary of a Wimpy Kid
  • This is Where We Live
  • 12 O’Clock Boys
  • The Girl
  • Tales of the Heartland (panel)

My favorite was “This is Where We Live,” but everything I saw and participated in was fabulous.
