summer lovin’ happened so fast…

olive juneAugust 19, 2013

and with the the ring of a bell

… summer is over

we were lucky enough for a beach trip to say goodbye to the summer of 2013

for me, the beach is always a good decision

the beach tops my list of favorite places to be

and places that feed my soul

it’s a consensus though

we both love the beach

thank you for all of the photo love again … you are all so kind.

i spent yesterday getting a mani at polished nail bar (love), reading for hours at a coffee shop, and then went on a date with tim to our favorite spot- soul- now a short 5 minute walk from our home 🙂

when i walked in, i instantly saw emily from the bachelorette to the right – there is a wall of intimate booths lined up next to one another- so when the hostess asked, ‘inside or outside?’ and i almost always pick outside- i said, ‘inside’ and… she sat us right next to her. we didn’t say anything- i feel like she deserves some type of privacy, but she sat a few feet from me on the booth the entire time and it looked like a first/second date…

here are a few photos from yesterday:

some of our favorite soul treats- we decided to indulge and ordered things that we didn’t during wedding prep:

spicy feta dip

french fries with olive oil truffle

the napoleon sushi roll- i could eat this every single day.

great day back to work- pretty crazy seeing your new last name everywhere…

*it felt really good to be back … so nice to have structure again.

i went into my word doc account and saw this… even though i loved the wedding process/our day, i def won’t miss all of the constant work. adios wedding work.

*hoping for a great school year… lucky year 7~
and year 1 as Mrs. Monaco

i plan to do my best to stay positive (even when encountered with negativity) and to give it my all every single day- while keeping balance in our lives and trying to live the most heathy, full, colorful life possible… simple- yet challenging-

one that i will be proud to look back on.
