So much fun, weddings and sun in the summer - can't wait for another one hehe!! I can't believe you met the top model for polo - he sort of resembles Leo Dicaprio...a little!! xo, Biana - BlovedBoston

You definitely have a lot of gorgeous friends that got married this year! Not going to lie seeing all those summer pictures kinda makes me want warm weather again.....even though I finally just got to bust out all my scarves and boots ;-) Hope you have a wonderful holiday this week! xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteStill love the kitchen redo. And the Cooper photobomb in the mirror.
ReplyDeleteLooks like such a fun summer! That shot of you reading on your deck looks so perfect and relaxing, I'm jealous! :)
ReplyDeleteSo fun!! You have me missing summer now:) y'all's house is so pretty- I am very impressed with the kitchen remodel! It looks amazing! And your deck looks like the most perfect place to relax and read! So fun. Merry Christmas Eve!:)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you got so much done and some fun trips too! I need to get my butt in order to start painting and upgrading stuff around the house. Love the color you painted the kitchen!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your kitchen gallery wall, also the whole makeover-looks so awesome! I have contemplated panting my cabinets just have never done it in the end. How hard was it?
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great summer. I'd love to go to a real Charleston wedding just to see if it still has the southern feel I always grew up knowing they'd have... You know, southern belles :). ha! I live in the midwest, I've always wondered :)
