more pictures...



Karen (our great photographer), has been sending us some picture goodness from the weekend.  I don't know if I had mentioned this, but we were going to have the party in front of the barn that we used for our family pictures last year here.  We talked to the owners and said "no problem" so the idea was for one looooooooooooooooooooong table in front of this beautiful barn.  So much for that  :(  The weather was not looking good so we sent our massive texts and facebook messages on Friday night letting everyone know that it was going to be at our house.  It was actually very sweet (and uber convenient) having it at our house...also very last minute.  It turned out great though.  The sun was shining a lot in the early afternoon and I got kinda bummed about our decision to change location, but once we started taking pictures outside the sky turned gray.  And by time we got back to the house, it was pouring. 








Many thanks to Karen, Doni (my wonderful mother),  Margie (who did all the flowers) and friends Hannah and Brienne.  I couldn't have done it without you :)

weekend pics...

 


Let us not forget that Paetyn's 7th birthday was on Friday night...10 little girls.  100 little messy fingers and toes doing crafts, eating cake, and making messes!  Paetyn had a ton of fun!








 
And here are a few more from the vows...

vow renewal...


Vows this weekend = awesome.  Weather was good until it was time to go in and then it poured all night while our 45 closest friends and family were under our roof.  Ended up doing the vows in front of our fireplace which is pretty awesome.  Lots of drinking, good food, and good fun.  Thanks to all of you who helped pull the day together (Karen, Hannah, Margie, Brienne...couldn't have done it without all my great ladies)! 

Great. day. Period.

School House Electric, baby!...


Woop woop!  The new fall line from School House Electric is out and I am head over heels!  For a long time, I thought S.H.E. was just lighting and fixtures.  Oh, no friends.  I was very wrong.  If you haven't checked them out you should!  Here are some more favs:

week in pictures...


Hello!  Hope you are very well!  We are all great...wrapping up birthday/renewals plans.  Weather for Saturday has been forecasted as crap, so time for our backup plan.  Also, last weekend Jeremiah and I did the Portland Warrior Dash.  Crazy?  Yes.  Fun?  Absolutely.

walls that inspire...


With a little chill coming and the winter/rainy blues around the corner here in Portland, I thought I would share some inspiring walls that may make it a little easier to be inside all winter :)










I hope you have a sunny and warm weekend!
