Yellowstone in September

Unfortunately, Russ was in Europe having the time of his life when I went to Yellowstone. Had to see the beauty one more time before the lousy weather came. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint. Grateful to have my friends tag along and keep me company! Although, I am sure they would have preferred to leave me behind. I took my sweet time capturing what I loved. I am probably pretty annoying ;) Oh well! Love the shots I took that day. . Missing a certain someone but the geysers are still pretty cool!

Feast your eyes

The Russell Weekend

So after being apart for about a month and a half over the summer, this cute guy decided to come see me in California! It was absolutely amazing. Saw some great sights, ran around the coast and just soaked up each other's company :) Spent the first night walking around Cannery Row in Monterey and watched the sun set on Lover's Point. Then spent the entire second day in Santa Cruz! After 2 years in Tonga, Russ adores the beach. So happy to reunite him with the salty water.

California is such a beautiful place. I LOVE living here!
P.S. Beware! If you are sick of pictures of us, do NOT continue! That is the majority of the photos. What can I say? I am crazy about him!

XOXO

Sometimes, I catch him looking at me like this :)
