Hello! Happy Monday and 4th of July eve. I hope everyone is enjoying a long holiday weekend! Unfortunately, I had to head back to work today, but we did get to enjoy a quick weekend getaway to Wenatchee and Lake Chelan for my cousin's wedding.

Lincoln had the big important job of ring bearer and he absolutely loved it! He was so cute in his little suspenders and bow tie and the flower girls loved him! We weren't sure how he was going to do, but he wasn't scared at all and rocked it. I think it helped that he had four of the cutest flower girls loving on him and showing him the ropes.

The wedding was at Karma Vineyards in Lake Chelan. It was beautiful, with stunning views of the lake for the ceremony. The reception was down in the vineyard which was equally pretty, especially after the sun went down and the patio lights were twinkling. The bride and groom both looked so happy and I'm so excited for my cousin as he ventures into this next big journey in life. His new wife is the sweetest and we were so honored that they asked Lincoln to be a part of their big day.

After the ceremony and dinner, the dancing began and it was so funny to see the flower girls pull Lincoln out onto the dance floor. He absolutely loved the attention and was quite the ladies man.

Sara's Wedding

This past Saturday my little sister got married! She was such a beautiful bride and the day went off without a hitch, except for when she forgot to carry her bouquet down the aisle! haha. It was pretty funny.

The wedding was at her husband's family home on Lake Pend Oreille and it was beautiful! The weather was perfect. Below are a few pictures (the only ones I managed to snap/steal) from the rehearsal and the big day!

Congrats again Sara and Jesse!

Sara's Bridal Shower

My little sister is getting married! I threw her a bridal shower a few weeks ago. It was so much fun planning all the little details.

Luckily, we're friends with a pretty talented photographer, Jennifer DeBarros, who brought her camera along and took photos for us. She's the talented photographer behind my baby shower,  L's newborn photos, 6 month shoot and his 1st birthday party as well!

Both chalk board signs were made by my talented friend, Amy!

A fun little Mimosa bar was key to getting the celebration kicked off right!

I had so much fun making Sara's flower crown using this tutorial! 

Sisters!

I'm also getting pretty good at creating my own centerpieces. I found a few key secrets through this blog post!

Passing along my "something old" from my wedding! A locket with pictures of our grandparents who have all passed.
