I’m excited to finally share the twins’ newborn photos! These beautiful pictures were taken by Shelly Peterson in White Salmon, WA.
The boys were three weeks old when the photos were taken & I cannot believe how much they have changed. I just love looking back at these, Shelly did a wonderful job!
The ones of Wyatt smiling get me every time!
Happy Friday!
Last weekend, we decided to take a little impromptu trip to the Oregon coast. Miesha came with us & we also asked my sister & her boyfriend to tag along. We had such a great day! It was Miesha's first time to the coast where she could actually run around on the beach & play in the waves. It was so much fun watching her! We had never been to Cannon Beach before & it was so beautiful! As we were driving through the town, we saw Haystack Rock lurking in the mist & we were all awestruck at how pretty it was. Although it was cloudy, it wasn't terribly cold! It was a gorgeous day all the same :)
After we spent some time on the beach, we went into town. I had to stop & get a new pair of shoes because the waves got my socks & sneakers wet (of course). After that, we went to the candy store to get all types of goodies & then to dinner. We ate at a restaurant called Driftwood -- it was really good! We sat outside on the deck around a table that had a fire pit built into it. (You may have seen it if you followed along on my Instagram story!)
Here are a few pictures that Sean took from our day:
I hope you have a great weekend! XOXO
I can't believe that tomorrow is October 1st & that September is already over! I must say, this month has flown by. September is one of my favorite months. It's the month that my husband & I started dating & also the month that we got married! Different years though, of course ;) I love the beginning of fall; the air gets a little crisper, the leaves begin to change colors & everything smells & feels so much better to me. It's so refreshing, especially after a hot summer.
This month has been a busy one. Obviously, I've been lacking in blog posts...but at least I'm getting one done before the official end of the month, right? ;) We attended two weddings, celebrated our five year wedding anniversary, took a few day trips, celebrated my brothers birthday, worked some more on our house (never ending project, I tell ya) & we were even able to take a few days to go visit Sean's sister in Spokane.
Last year for our anniversary, we bought a nice camera so that we could take up photography as a hobby & as a couple. We have had so much fun learning together & this month we have really been getting some good use out of it! Most of the time this entails getting up super early so that we can catch the sunrise for good lighting. I am definitely not a morning person, but I have really enjoyed these early mornings with Sean. It gets us outside & spending time with each other, which has been wonderful! Here are some of the pictures that Sean has taken this month, with the exception of the one of him...I took that! :)
Doesn't he do a great job?! I am continually amazed at how good of a photographer he is becoming, I can't wait to see how his pictures turn out as he continues this passion. I am looking forward to learning more about it, too!
To officially say goodbye to summer, we lit our fire pit last night. It was a perfect way to wrap up one season & move on to another. I'm now ready to wholeheartedly welcome fall! Bring on all of the pumpkin scented candles, haunted corn mazes, fall decorating, kettle corn & salted caramel mochas. September may be one of my favorite months, but October is my favorite color :)
