Today I am working on the piles around our house from our renovation, organizing things here and there while singing Radiohead’s, “Everything in it’s Right Place.”

Today I am prepping the kids school drawers, filling folders with paper, lining bookshelves with their new books-trying to make some sense of the chaos that will (hopefully soon) be their schoolroom.

Today I am longing for our house to be back to normal. Please. Soon.

Today as the kids are running around screaming, tapping me on the shoulder, talking to me as I type this, I am thinking about where I was sitting earlier this week. On a dock. In Maine. In a town where no one can use cell phones. Seemingly untouched since the 1950’s. I missed the kids terribly, but….

I really liked that place.

Our kitchen is slowly being pieced back together, painting begins soon, our COMPLETE RE-BRAND is on the way (can’t wait!!!), and I begin school with the kids next week. Life is insanely busy, but incredibly blessed. Can’t wait to share more soon….

Christine and Joe had a small intimate wedding with a homemade/nature theme and feel. In other words, our dream type of wedding.  :) Brett and I were giddy all day. From the first look that sent us hiking (Christine in her wedding dress) through the woods, to the gorgeous historic home in the Glen Helen Nature Preserve for the ceremony and reception….we just couldn’t get enough. These two were just awesome, and they put such thought and detail into their special day.

All of the DIY signage and *lovely* handwriting was done by JOE. Yes, Joe. That solidified that he is “the bee’s knees” in my book. Their picturesque ceremony and reception were held at The Birch House, in one of our favorite small towns, Yellow Springs.

Inspiration was around every corner at this wedding, and Christine and Joe’s sweet and charming disposition made our job such a pleasure.

Christine and Joe, your wedding was a mix of a laid-back backyard get together & pure magic. It truly was perfect. Thank you for allowing us to document this time for you both.

Wishing you many happy years~
