And we frolicked about in our summer skin

Squeaky swings and tall grass
The longest shadows ever cast
The water's warm and children swim
And we frolicked about in our summer skin

I don't recall a single care
Just greenery and humid air
Then Labor day came and went
And we shed what was left of our summer skin 

Death Cab for Cutie: Summer Skin


We just spent a fabulous Labor Day weekend down in San Diego with two of our favorite relatives. A lot of time on the beach and not enough sun screen has me literally shedding my summer skin.

It's kind of gross.

Fire it up, Fire it up

Prepping the vases 

 Prepping flowers

 The Rehearsal

 Our fabulous friend Meredith

The Winckoski family (the nicest family you will ever meet)

It honestly was beautifully done
Like trying to hide the daylight from the sun

Even if we had been sure enough, it's true we really didn't know
Even if we knew which way to head, but still we probably wouldn't go

Modest Mouse: Fire It Up

Recently our friends Jamie and Riley got married. We were fortunate enough to get to spend the day before helping to prep and attending the rehearsal. They are two of my favorite people and both their families are wonderful. It was an honor to be included. 

I promise to post some pictures from the big day too.
