Tomorrow!

Adam and I will be sitting on this deck tomorrow in Vail with Oliver, mom, and dad.




Wish these two would be there too!

San Francisco

Hello friends,
Adam and I are headed to San Francisco next month for my (gasp) 30th birthday. Really, I'm okay turning thirty, but I would love to celebrate the milestone! Anyone have any great advice? I already booked Alcatraz but after that we are pretty open to tips or ideas. I would especially love restaurant recommendations. Thanks!

Cherry Grove

 

Beach trip #2 to Cherry Grove, SC with the Ringgold side of the family. Thanks Krystle for the pictures. I think I was maxed out by this point. I hadn't been home in a month and was just tired. Still, we had fun with the family!

Again our meal was a low country boil. Apparently we are creatures of habit...

Who done it?

Who do you think would do this?



Does he look guilty?



Clearly he's learned his lesson...




And his accomplice...



Emerald Isle

 

We went to the beach twice in July. Both sides of Adam's family go to the beach for a week. Those who know me well know I'm not a huge beach girl but I had a very relaxing week. The first week we had a pool, which was amazing because I do love the pool. I didn't take that many pictures either week, but we had a great time.


Adam and I cooked a low country boil one night. I think it was a hit.


Garner family minus Don. He was in the Middle East.

Minneapolis

Our friends Aaron and Allison got married in Minneapolis in July, and we loved being able to be there to support them in their new marriage! Lots of my family also lives in Minneapolis, so we were able to spend time with them a little bit too.

Friday night when we arrived in Minneapolis, we drove straight to my aunt and uncle's house to see  them and my cousins. We went on a boat ride to a restaurant on the lake. It was a beautiful night with even better company.


We stayed with my cousins Jeff and Jenn and their family for the weekend. Their girls Ellie and Lauren love Adam, so we had a blast with them. It was back to the lake for us with a boat ride, swimming, and tubing. I even got in on the fun.





We absolutely adore these girls and this family and are so happy we get to be a part of their lives.


Next was the wedding. Adam was a groomsman, so I spent a lot of time driving back and forth. It was such a joy to be a part of this day.


The happy bride and groom. We are so blessed to have them in Atlanta now!



It was a great long weekend in Minnesota!

Stuck in June





I had an incredible month if July! I was gone most of it to Minnesota, Emerald Isle, North Dakota, and Myrtle Beach. Now it's back to reality. My house and laundry still look like it's June so it is catch up time! What a nice break though. I'll post about July as I catch my breath. And figure out it's August already!
