it's a lovely day for a hike, mrs holmes.


one of the things cari wanted to do most on her bachelorette weekend was take a fun hike through the gorgeous ski slope mountains.  i have been told a million times how beautiful mountains are in the summer, but until this weekend, i had never gotten to experience them myself.  well, let me tell you - they lived up to their fabulous hype.  although i am not a fan of skiing, i am a fan of summer ski slopes.

the only person i know who takes more pictures than i do is cari.  so we had a blast snapping away the entire hike.  clouds & trees & all the beauty of nature + our pretty friends.  luckily for her, cari also takes pictures approximately 8.2 million times better than i do.  & she has a fancy shmancy camera.  "you mean there are better pictures than iphone + instagram filters??"  luckily for me, we shared all of our pictures :)

{so professional!}

{& cari's.  you win.}


we discovered on our hike that cari's fancy camera has a self-timer!  so it only took us about 10 tries to get this pretty darn cool group shot:

{friends!}

not until moving to alabama the beautiful did i grow a huge appreciation for tall trees.  they really are amazing.  growing that long to become so tall.  gorgeous.  well done, God.  well done.


through the trails we did & didn't follow in & out of the trees, we stumbled upon lots of fun stuff like a little wooden bridge & a creek & teepee of trees.  more photo ops :)



one afternoon when the other girls were taking a nap, cari & i headed back up the mountain for another little hike.  a rain storm was headed into town, which made the view all the more beautiful.



love love,
kjp.
