Hello, dear friends. This was a week chock-full of special moments that I hope I never forget. I had unplanned adventures of my own; adventures with my Nathan; and I remotely shared in the adventure of a lifetime with my brother, Tripp. So knowing that words will not suffice to convey the immense beauty of these places and moments, I will simply allow you to come along on the journey through pictures. Some have captions, while others do not.
They say an image is worth 1,000 words! So with over 65 photos to share today, you’re certainly getting your fill! Enjoy. Until next time…
