I think I lost my smile
I think you lost yours too
We have lost the power
to make each other laugh
let’s just leave this place
and go to summerland
it’s just a name on the map
it sounds like heaven to me….(Everclear)

I had the pleasure of shooting my brother in law’s wedding this past weekend. We drove the 950 miles to New Bern, North Carolina. I actually took a few photos along the way that weren’t work related!  That’s a big deal! You would think that I would take photos for fun… I never take my camera out unless I am working. I’ve decided to start making it more of a habit. Go snap happy once in a while. So here are a couple of shots that I took along the way…

When we arrived at our hotel a lovely gift basket welcomed us. They also included water bottles & glass soda bottles. I put them in the fridge before I took the photo. Fail on my part!  The treats were so yummy. They put so much work into them!  As soon as my 3yr old saw the cookies I knew they wouldn’t last long. Inside the bottle was the story of the proposal!  Adorable.

 When we stopped for gas I noticed a tiny little church across the street.  Farmland & cows as far as the eye can see. I had to get out and a take a few photos. It was too cute not to. I was hoping that a cow would come up to the fence…no such luck.

So this next photo is so random,but I liked how it came out. We were going through a tunnel and I decided to try and hold my breath. You know the whole make a wish thing…I was trying to distract myself from the chest pains I was having …lack of oxygen and all.  I took a photo. I thought it came out weird. God I suffer for my art! hah

We did get a chance to go to the beach! My 3yr old’s 1st time ever. My hubs and I haven’t been to the beach in at least 10 years. My lens wouldn’t stop fogging up. : ( I didn’t think to grab a lens cloth. It was just so humid! At least I managed to get a few shots.

So that’s that. Just a little taste of the trip… Stay tuned because Micah & Amanda’s sneek peak will be up shortly! ; )
