flashback friday

Merry Christmas friends!!

It has been a really busy week or so, hard to believe Christmas is so soon!!

We go to Texas this weekend and i am so excited to go spend some quality time with family!

we haven't (i dont know if we ever will) taken christmas photos this year... so i figured i'd recycle our old one from 2009. :)

happy memories, and quality time to all of you this very sweet and special season!

love

Happy Thanksgiving.

I hope you all had a fantastic thanksgiving and didn't eat too much!!

we drove down to visit my parents yesterday, we did the usual... eat turkey yada yada yada...

my mom freaks out anytime all of us are all together and makes us do a major photo shoot. 

After we left we had some quality time with some friends, who i am so very thankful for.

For the first time ever i did a little black friday shopping, hit up target at midnight... our entire shopping experience lasted about 17minutes... (felt like one of those old shopping game shows)  we got some good stuff. :)

The rest of today will involve lots of rest... leftovers, homemade xmas decorating, and maybe a christmas movie!

it truly is the most wonderful time of year!!!

flashback friday..

december 2008

i remember parts of this day so vividly.. the way the weather felt unusually warm for december, the aimless walks around the city.  

This was a good day.

photofriday vol.5... Save the Date

I came across our save the date the other day.

I had almost completely forgotten about it.

Its always fun to go over to a friends house and still see this on their fridge

:)

photofriday vol.4.. The Arnolds

Last week was my best friend's anniversary!

They have a pretty cool "wedding day" story.

and well, they both are pretty cool.

We took some photos in my backyard to collect a memory for their 3rd year of marriage!

It was fun, they are way too good looking for their own good.

These are some rough edits, and only a few of the bucket loads of photos we took.

hope these colors are inspiring for you.

To read about their wedding day, and other adventures check out Mary Ellen on skyeteal.
