Coast-to-coast

How is everyone's summer going?  I hope you're enjoying it to the fullest!
It's been a minute since I last posted because I've been doing a bit of traveling, playing, and just having fun.

Here's what my travel map looked like for the last 2 weeks of July

We started off by spending a week on the Gulf Coast of Texas with Jake's family.  Lots of beach time, playing in the water, relaxing, and laughing

Late-night, catching sand crabs on the beach

Crazy beach hair!

Jake & David spent a lot of time Skim boarding

Jake's "Texas parents", Mike & Debbi

We tried to take a nice picture, then got splashed by a big wave.  I like our genuine smiles in it though

cute beach faces.  Kimmi & Victoria

snacked on homemade popsicles 

Bonfires & smores on the beach

Jessi had good luck fishing from the shore

all the kids.  David, Vic, Jake, me, Sammi, Jessi, Kimmi

Then I flew straight to NYC for a weekend with my cute friend Amy.  Broadway shows, biking Central Park, Statue of Liberty....an awesome weekend in The Big Apple.

*PHOTOS COMING SOON*
I've been working on this post for 2 weeks, and haven't quite gotten my pictures together from this adventure.  I'll post them as soon as I can!

Then Jake & I headed to San Diego for my dear friend Melanie's wedding.  Obviously I didn't get many photos of the event, but you can be assured that it was beautiful

Marc & Mel's first dance.  Isn't her dress amazing?!
