Asheville

This past weekend, we headed up to Asheville to see our friends Reiss & Jane get married. Will & Reiss have been friends since they were really little & Will was honored to be a groomsmen. We had a blast celebrating the two of them and exploring the quirky town of Asheville. Unfortunately its a haul from Wilmington (6 ish hour drive) so we didn't get to spend as much time exploring as we would have liked. We'll be back for ya, Asheville.

I'm still learning more about photography and using the Canon 5D Mark II. Here are a few shots I took this weekend (with a few of Will's shots mixed in).

Naturally we found a wonderful, local coffee shop called High Five Coffee. I had a wonderful cup of peppermint tea & we sat outside, enjoying the mountain air.

iphone picture from the wedding-- really regretting not bringing the Canon for the wedding & reception! Everything was beautiful!

I loved all the musicians on every corner in downtown Asheville!

While waiting for brunch at Mayfels (highly recommended), I snapped this picture of Will. It's so fun traveling with him & being his date to weddings! Can't wait to come back to Asheville.

WEEKEND!

It's Friday! I'm celebrating with a cold cherry coke &  some bluegrass. We are pretty stoked that Will has a full weekend off (the first in well over a month). I am beyond excited to spend some quality time with him & friends. 

Enjoy the weekend & listen to this song. It's called "pie for breakfast" ... could it get any better?

Happy Almost Weekend!

Happy almost weekend, folks! We are pretty stoked for a long weekend with absolutely no plans. Will hasn't been off on a weekend for a while now so we intend on doing a lot coffee drinking, record playing and catching up on life. For now, listen to this song on repeat. 

Gillian Welch song

If you are curious about the blog title, it was taken from a Gillian Welch song, "Dear Someone." Will and I danced to this at our wedding and the lyrics are special to us. Check out the song-- it has a great, folk-y sound.

I want to go all over the world
And start living free
I know that there's somebody who
Is waiting for me
I'll build a boat, steady and true
As soon as it's done
I'm going to sail along in the dreams
Of my dear someone

One little star, smiling tonight
Knows where you are
Stay, little star, steady and bright
To guide me afar
Blow, little wind, over the deep
For now I've begun
Hurry and take me straight into the arms
Of my dear someone
Hurry and take me straight into the arms
Of my dear someone
