cabrewing with friends.

i woke up this morning thinking about the few but great friends mark and i have here in columbus. with school, work and other various life situations it seems like we rarely get to visit with them but when we do its always a blast. corey and nicole mauro and mark and i seem to have started a tradition of spending memorial day canoeing in the hocking hills (ohio). we really have to thank them for introducing us to this wonderful, fun and relaxing event. its always an adventure! 

somehow we can make a 5 mile canoe trip last 6 hours!! 

and there is never a dull moment!

(yeah- second to last photo- we thought we were being hunted by angry canoers LOL)

cheers!

and the year grows cold.

happy october everyone!

september flew by as did all the summer months for me.  my first year back in the saddle of my photography business has been fabulous and seems like a whirlwind as it comes to a close.  we only have one event left for the year and its our biggest of all :) we are so very excited for whats to come!!

mark and i took a little personal time off this past weekend from school work and photo editing and wanted to get out for some fresh air.  our day off together turned out rainy and cold and absolutely no sunshine but we got tough and headed to our local farmers market to pick out our first ever pumpkins together.

this will be our 3rd halloween together and we have never carved pumpkins together! can you believe that?  its something we both really loved to do when we were children and i couldn't believe we hadn't started this tradition yet.  the night before we bought a small carving kit and some patterns and just needed the perfect pumpkins!!

our sweet little pumpkins will remain nestled on our front porch until we get the chance to carve them.  i'll keep you updated! in the meantime... go out and start a new season tradition too!

peace & love~
