June | 2015

"The air was sweet with the breath of many apple orchards, and the meadows sloped away in the distance to horizon mists of pearl and purple; while
The little birds sang as if it were 
The one day of summer in all the year."
-Anne of Green Gables, L.M. Montgomery

Out of all of the months, June is my favorite, beating out the advent of spring in April and the magic of fall in October. Why? What could be better than green things springing up from the ground after months of brown and boring or luscious apple orchard rovings? June is a month of celebrations for me. It's my birthday month (29 this year!), our anniversary (9 - wow, that went fast), the birthdays of my blog and photography business, and Gateway to the West days complete with funnel cakes, lights, and merry go rounds. Our garden begins to give us her fruits and we spend many a late afternoon sprawled on a quilt in the shade of our front yard while we play and lounge and twirl. And the nights? Oh, the nights. Warm, light, green, and full. Yep, June is certainly the dearest to my heart.

Here's a little snippet of our adventures this June...

I love this girl.

Thank you, God, for June, for my adventurous daughter, for my charming prince of a son, for my handsome partner, for my encouraging friends, and our wonderful home and plot of earth. You are an extravagant giver.

Thank you.
