We’re now past the midway point of July. Ugh. You know what that means? Summer is halfway over, at least when considering the school calendar. The summer season doesn’t officially end until late September, but once the kids go back to school in August, it just feels over. And really, for us Garrett County residents, September has a good chance of bringing chillier weather and we’ll definitely see significant change in the leaves. But I’m going to try to stay positive that summer won’t continue to fly by and that we still have plenty of time to enjoy the warmth. Who’s with me? 🙂 In the meantime, some shootouts to three JFP couples who are celebrating their first anniversaries this month! In comparison, the three wedding were completely different. Kristi and Brandon were married in a church and had their reception in a social hall. Tasha and Brinton were married at a vacation home at the lake. And Heather and Nic were married in the forest and their reception was centered around a cabin. All three were wonderful weddings with super sweet couples, and I am glad I was able to be a part of both!

Happy First Anniversary, Kristi and Brandon!

P.S. Go enjoy summer, y’all! Yesterday I took a spontaneous trip to Idlewild Park in Ligonier, PA. It was tough taking two kids under the age of four to an amusement park, but they enjoyed playing together and exploring new things…and I enjoyed watching them do it. Summer is for DOING and HAVING FUN, and I’m going to do more of that in the coming weeks!
