the one where i'm thoroughly enjoying summer

although i no longer actually get a REAL summer ( i.e. laying by the pool, doing absolutely nothing all day every day ) i have been having a blast so far! i am finishing up my first round of weddings this saturday after a hot and sweaty six in a row. it will be nice to have a few weekends break before it starts back up again in july through september, yikes! so what have i been up to? my goofy friend erin was in town for a couple days so i got to see her for a little bit before she headed to seattle for a couple weeks. it's so good being around friends! i'm planning on visiting her in july at her grandma's in kentucky, can't wait for that! here's a typical picture of us from the night. do we ever take a normal photo? no. that's what makes us so special. :)

with summer beginning it means that matt has more free time too and i have gotten to see him three times in the past week! it's been so good just being able to spend more time with him. we have planned a trip to visit james at the end of august and i can't wait for that! we have gone through quite a few seasons of different shows over the past year of dating ( the office, psych, sherlock holmes, downton abbey, miss marple, poirot ) so we decided to start friends this summer ( one of my all time favorite shows! ) so we will be making our way through all 10 seasons hopefully by the end of summer.
what else is going to be amazing about this summer? so many great things are happening! i'm getting to see friends, spend lots of time with matt, go to kentucky, watch my best friend from growing up get married, spend time with my oklahoma relatives, visit james in san diego, shoot lots of beautiful weddings, enjoy fresh produce from the farm, and i could go on and on! i'm so excited for this summer and all of the great things it has in store for me!
