TGIF! Some of you guys got a sneak peak of this post when I accidentally published it on Wednesday! I'm so used to writing these posts the night before they go live, that I automatically scheduled it for the next day instead of Friday. So much for trying to get ahead... Thank you to those of you who wrote such nice comments on the post. Unfortunately, I had to delete them since I couldn't figure out how to un-publish the post (which I figured out in a quick Google search later that day)...
I've read so much about the Golden Hour for taking pictures, so we wanted to play around with it. I think we caught the tail end of it, but the light was absolutely beautiful. I hope you like how the pictures turned out.
What are you guys up to this weekend? I'm looking forward to watching the World Cup final, attending part of the Southern Blog Society Conference, and trying to get a little rest. That sounds like a lot just writing it!
I hope you guys have a great weekend!
