it's crazy to think that my school years will be ending this december. i've always had school be a big part of my life and my yearly routine. now that we will be graduating at the end of the year, what comes next? this summer has been a little glimpse of my future to come; kevin working (but hopefully not nearly as many hours as this summer, i would die!) me hanging out at home or with friends and discovering new places around the city, focusing on growing my photography business, and the list goes on. where will we be living? when will we start having kids? what school will kevin be going to for his MBA? will we travel new places and explore the world together? these questions have been the topic of conversation every night. i'm excited for what's to come and i know that wherever we end up, home is where he is, so i'll never have to worry.

bought these all at world market. i've been there before but have never taken the time to look at their beautiful jewelry or house decorations. i'm in love with that store now!! i'm so sad there's not one close to rexburg when we move back there this fall... i guess i'll be taking full advantage of this store while i'm here!

+ i was so excited that i found those adorable drawer knobs! they'll be perfect for my nightstand (stay tuned, i'm still working on that project...)

this weekend my sister tagged along with me to reno. i photographed a beautiful wedding and the cutest family while there. these are some photos from our roadtrip. it's so fun that lake tahoe and reno aren't too far from where we are so it was a quick trip over and back! i'm hoping we'll be able to head up to lake tahoe soon.
