I am currently 1 day away from when I return to school to teach and do one of my favorite jobs... Next week the kids will all be returned to school and my long hot summer days of beaches, cuddles, and stargazing until 2 am will be over until June 2017...
Who am I kidding? No more ice cream runs with awesome friends after 10 at night, no more Pokemon Go hunting until midnight...and then boardgames until 2 am... yeah. That happened and it was amazing.
Had an amazing lunch day with my girl, Whitaker... made the most awesome empanadas.
Actually... made a lot of amazing meals shared with those I love...
We've since had a few Target dates...
And went to the awesome Sculpture Gardens as the hot summer days turned to hot summer nights...
Of course KILLED it at the gym... and multitasked like my old man taught me
And spent a few magical days with a few magical soon-to-be Sweet Start brides...
My last update was in the middle of my trip to Sicily with my family, and I have since returned and finally was able to get the husband, Shawn, to go on a One Year Anniversary/Birthday trip with me to North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
It was there that I surprised the hubby on our First Wedding Anniversary (which is the paper anniversary) with a surprise photoshoot for us to capture our amazing day in Charleston to celebrate!
Seriously LOVED being reunited with our amazing Wedding Photographer, Brandi of Alexis June Weddings... She is such an incredible friend and photographer. We are so blessed to have her capture these moments and to be a part of them...
We even had Suki with us!
Brandi put on our First Dance song while she shot these moments... it was amazing...
Here are my favorite shots she captured...
Watch out for the couple of BA's around town! Haha!
When we said our farewells, Shawn still wanted to do our own little photoshoot I had tricked him into from the start with our own cameras... and spent the day in gorgeous Charleston...
Realizing he didn't get me a paper gift for our anniversary he bought me this rose from a vendor on the street...
This is when Suki got her first ice cream... and Shawn and i shared some magical ice cream!
and we enjoyed the gorgeous sites around town...
We returned to North Myrtle Beach and enjoyed the views...
And then of course we had to celebrate my birthday...
The hubby surprised me with the extravagant little blue box...
It was seriously one of my best and favorite birthdays I've ever had...
The best part is when FINALLY the rest of the family joined us... It was a blast!
But now we are back in New Jersey... preparing for big things to come...
Stay tuned later this week for big BIG news!
