Ooooooooookay. These two. So. Freaking. Cute. You know it’s a beyond happy couple when you find yourself smiling (but not in a weird way) at their photos while editing them.  There was lots of laughter, love, and dancing topped off with a beautiful light snowfall. Talk about PERFECT.    #block-yui_3_17_2_1_1451496119132_66899 .sqs-gallery-block-grid .sqs-gallery-design-grid { margin-right: -3px; […]

Hello hello!! As you can see, I have completely renovated my blog as I felt it was time for a change. And speaking of change, I have a soon-to-be new sister-in-law! How exciting!

Day trip out of the city and into the countryside of Illinois to a place called All Seasons Apple Orchard for a fall celebration consisting of pumpkin pie, apple cider donuts, corn mazes, pig races, tractor rides, apple picking, pumpkin patches, and pretty fall colors. It was a good day.

So much cuteness.

Took some of these pictures while biking and it was actually terrifying and I risked falling off my bike and looking like stupid American tourist for them, but it was too pretty so I dont even care. It was #worthit

I spent part of the first week of school documenting the freshman orientation that North Park has, called “Threshold.” And I loved it. And I got paid for it. #winning Happy back-to-school week everyone!

 Weekend trips, much needed beach/sun time, tanned skin, Krispy Kreme donuts, late nights, pedal cab rides (thanks Cam), sunsets, lots of laughs, pictures, and fun. Here’s to summer and all the goodness it brings. *insert party emoji and heart emoji here*
