what i did :: Family Reunion

This past weekend Ivan and I headed up to Southampton with my mom for our annual family reunion. We decided to make a whole weekend out of it and left Friday night and came home Sunday evening. There are a whole bunch of great beaches up there but the weather was not beachy at all. It was actually pretty chilly at some points of the day! Anyways, here are a few photos from the weekend.

Even though the weather wasn't great we still wandered over to the beach to check it out.

Kaylah & I usually take a photo like this while we are doing our outfit shots. I had my mom do one with me :)

I love the big pile of poop behind the dog, ha! That's what that is supposed to be, right?

I made a kitty friend at the family reunion.

The next day we just took our time, wandered around and grabbed some lunch.

It is so nice to get away for a relaxing weekend.

Today I am off to help a friend with some wedding decorations and it's almost time for me to hop on my bike and hit the road. I will talk to you tomorrow...in video form.

  11. I don't know, it could be that no dogs are allowed near the alps? Otherwise someone seriously needs to adjust that pups diet...
