My Summer Vacation: Part 1
Hi, I just wanna give you a head’s up, this post is photo heavy. I don’t have a lot to say except I cannot wait to go back for a visit and I’m hoping it’s in the fall because I cannot imagine how beautiful these spaces are with the changing leaves. On the day we visited, everything was covered in the most mysterious, yet beautiful fog.

My Last Week of Freedom {Family}
This is my last week of freedom. On Friday those people will be out of school for the entire summer. I’ve enjoyed my time alone… freedom to wander about… enjoy coffee with friends… hang with the hubs on his days off… sit in the grass and soak up the sun… Now that time will be interrupted by “Mom, I’m bored!” or “Mom, I’m hungry!” So I’ll spend my last week of freedom just being in the moment and trying not to think about them. How will you spend your last week of freedom?
