My name is Karla Ritchey, AKA Lady Butterbug. I live in the beautiful historic district of McKinney, TX. So glad you are a visitor to my blog. Venue at Lady Butterbug, in Historic McKinney, is where I hang out. The venue is a festive event venue located in a 1920 neighborhood filling station and country store. I hope you will visit my new website and blog all about the Venue at Lady Butterbug. Another adventure for me is the little red cottage I purchased this year called the Lady Butterbug Cottage. This is an Airbnb cottage and it is also used by Venue customers.
