countdown

I finally gave in and made a chain link today! 14 days till we fly to St. Maarten, 15 days till we arrive in Des Moines and 29 days till we arrive in Salt Lake City! We couldn't be more excited to be back in the U.S.A and spend time with our families over the holidays! 

See you soon!

Photography has always been an interest of mine, but I've never really pursued that interest until now.

Eric bought me a Nikon camera before our wedding and I've been trying to teach myself to use it! 

I'm far from knowing what I'm doing, but I'm learning a little more each day and I'm hoping Santa will bring me a new lens for Christmas : ) 

Here's a taste of what I've captured lately. . .

Sorry if you've already seen some of these on Facebook or in previous posts! 

It sure helps living on a beautiful island : )

I just love this man.

and his smile :  )

pin! pin! pin!

I'm officially addicted to Pinterest! 

I decided to check it out and see what all the talk was all about. It was surprisingly simple to get set up, I'm still figuring out a few little things, but I'm loving it so far! I love all the great craft and decorating ideas, sure makes me wish I lived close to a craft store! You have to be extra creative on a small island. 

I recommend Pinterest to any and everyone! So fun! 

"Happy Pinning" 

will you marry me?

One year ago Eric popped the question and I said...YES, obviously ; ) 

We love looking back and remembering that day and how happy we were.

I was so excited to say YES, I didn't even look at the ring

but the whole drive home I made Eric keep the light on 

in the car so I could count the diamonds! 

We are so lucky to have each other for eternity.

ERIC + CARA = LOVE
