a few more moments from our time at the lake.

---

the eggs came from my brother's chickens.

i am "patiently" waiting for my chicks to start laying.

at the lake with the family.

it's been cool and wet but i'm not complaining.

i found the perfect little spot in the house for sewing.

jeremiah's aunt got hitched this past weekend at the [amazing] wild onion ranch in austin.

it was by far one of the most beautiful weddings i have attended!

the location was spectacular and inspiring...full of eye candy for me!

i was a little overwhelmed at first because i wanted to take pictures of everything.

but i managed to relax and just enjoy a special evening in a beautiful place.

fluffy pillows and cool sheets...ahhhh.

local scenery.

jeremiah's aunt tara got married while we were in maui.
honestly, i always thought getting married in hawaii to be bit of a cliche. but after attending this wedding and dancing the night away under the palm trees i finally get it! the whole evening was quite magical.

our first day in maui.
spent the day on front street in lahaina, swimming in the pacific, and experiencing our first luau.
the lei smelled amazing. i hated to watch it wither away.
