The Bachelorette

My big sister got hitched last weekend! It was such a special night with tons of close family and friends and I could not dream up a more beautiful bride if I tried. 

Lindsay's bachelorette party was a quick jaunt down to Asheville, North Carolina's wine country. Travels in Wine (a FABULOUS wine tour company based down there) sped us around to three different wineries in a super cool, fully stocked party bus. Silliness ensued, and here are the images that were allowed on release.

Better Late.

Then Never.

The past two years I've been in Montana for rodeos and fireworks. Due to work circumstances we stayed in Baltimore- and my Fourth of July this year was pretty amazing! We had a great group of people lounging poolside at the new Four Seasons pool all day long, sipping champagne, noshing on their delicious fish tacos and people watching to the extreme. (It's funny how demeanors change throughout a day of celebration.) And just being in the Harbor area, with a view of Federal Hill's flag flying high, hearing canons exploding on Fort McHenry, and seeing endless amounts of sailboats passing in and out of the Inner Harbor, sets the mood perfectly for a patriotic party.

Dinner at Wit & Wisdom was a downright good time- buffet style pulled pork, Moscow Mules and the best damn hot dog combined with synced red white and blue regalia got me going just in time for fireworks from our deck with good friends and fun neighbors.
