The month of June has been crazy fun so far. We had our siblings high school graduation which was happy and sad to see. I just can not believe that they are already out of high school! They are still babies in my eyes. We recently had one of our close friends get married this past weekend! It was such a fun time since we had a bunch of our out of state friends come and stay with us. It was an eventful weekend hanging out with everyone, the wedding day, lots of dancing, and just being all together. It is harder as we have gotten older and having close friends move but this weekend was so refreshing to have non-stop fun with the group together again. We spent our Saturday out on a boat cruising the sea and then Sunday we went to church, ate at Ellies Table, and walked around the Harbor. June has been such a fun month and a AWESOME start to summer

With Mitchell and I newly married, it is so much fun to start traditions as our own little family. I wanted to make a tradition that every December 1st we go out and do something that is "Christmasyy"  The harbor by our house decorates with festive lights every year so we took some hot coco and walked around, saying old stories and looking at the lights.  How can you not be in love with Christmas!? Next for our agenda is getting a tree, decorating it, and watching a fun Christmas movie!

All my decor is either DIY or from homegoods which helped saved a lot of money. I made sure all my wedding things were within budget and did not go over. I LOVE to save money haha, so my wedding was even more special because there was a lot of thought with beautiful detail. All the wood signs were cut and stained by the husband and his dad and then me, my sister in law, friend Olivia and sweet grandma in law wrote on all the boards. I am a very mono chr...
