we’re home! after a bit of a delay in detroit we made it back to the atl safe and sound. now that we are fatter, well rested and bronzed it is time to dive head first into catching up with our clients. it was really exciting to come home and see that even while we were gone you left us sweet comments (you know how i love comments), we really felt loved! oh also we were surprised by the number of messages we got from twitter saying we had new followers, thanks everyone! if you’re not already following us (and you have any interest in our personal lives, haha) check me out here and matt here, we’d love to be in touch! without further adieu, a few vacation shots! this first two are as close to ‘couple shots’ as we got the whole time:
we all took turns sailing or motoring around lake michigan, it’s so beautiful and clear and crisp:
we all took turns cooking and cleaning, this is a shot from my brother’s night. i’m pretty sure he’s squeezing a lemon into the green beans he’s sautéing right here. dan doesn’t even like green beans; if it had been up to him his veggie would have been potato chips, but mom insisted we give healthy a shot:
we spent a lot of time relaxing with books and i realized that reading is something i need to make more time for in my normal life. starting now. here’s my dad, leading by example :)
armed with sweatshirts and beverage we made our way to the beach to watch the sunset every night:
michigan grows the most incredible blueberries i’ve ever seen or tasted. they are sweet and juicy and the size of red grapes…big ones. we brought home two pounds which may last us a week, at best. photog nerds keep reading: matt taught me the homemade macro technique on this trip. it had always seemed like it was a lot of trouble but really you just take your 50mm, flip it around, hold open the aperture and move in and out to focus. ta-da!
well friends, i better get back to my inbox. to those of you that have emailed: thank you so much for your patience- you’ll be hearing from us soon! ahhh, it’s good to be back! ;)
I’m obsessed with your vacation pictures. James Bond. ‘Nough said.
Also, love the dad picture. Say hello to everyone. See you soon??
Is it bad to admit how jealous I am!!! What a gorgeous place. I know you’ve been working hard overtime over the past few months so this was definitely a well deserved vacation.
I love the first photo with the sunglasses/lens reflection. It looks like you had a great time. Glad to have you back!
I love that second picture of Matt in the air! I’m glad y’all had a great time on vacation!
Oh…nothing is better than going to the beach at night in old sweatshirts and drinking Coronas by a bonfire, right? These photos are so, so pretty. You captured the steam off those veggies like nothing I’ve ever seen. I just end up with a foggy camera lens! Sigh…
I love, love, love the vacation photos! The one with the reflection in the sunglasses is hot!!!
