yesterday evening a cool breeze swept through our town & brought with it the most beautiful summer storm. we placed basil in his hutch before dark & sat all of the plants in the yard to take full advantage of the cool summer shower.

after dinner, we headed to the garden for some weeding & enjoying. we found this little guy tucked under a tomato leaf, chomping on our healthy plant.
this week has been a relief from the gloomy cloud that seems to have been hovering over my mental state. i am thankful for this peace. daily, i am reminded of the privilege to live such a comfortable life even when it isn't necessarily deserved. friends, how are you doing?
love,
natalie

Yesterday was a wonderful evening. I'm really looking forward to our weekend together in Fayetteville. Happy 2nd Anniversary!
Love,
Luke
I love that second photo!
May I ask what you do with your green tomatoes? I had to remove a few branches from my tomato plants after a big storm and have a bowl full of them but am not sure what they could be used for other than pickling or frying. Maybe you can enlighten me!
these photos are all wonderful. I love getting a little taste of your life. I just looked at my calendar today and realized it is your anniversary tomorrow - happy anniversary! we love you guys so much!
We had a some of that lovely storm up here too - wasn't it such a nice reprieve from all this heat? You're attitude towards life and uncanny ability to find breathtaking beauty (and capture it!) in things that most people would pass right by is a true gift! Love and miss you!
your photos are always so lovely. i love the little things that make life so incredibly wonderful.
that sage is amazing! so are those chicken feathers!
you are a very tallented photographer! :) love all your photos!
