The Parkway

Friends are such a gift. I don't know why I've been blessed with such great ones but I certainly have. I wish I could hang out with them every single day because they really never get old. :) I hope I never lose them as close friends as long as I live because they are such a joy to be around.

I was so lucky to get to see all of my wonderful friends this weekend! They were conveniently all home for fall break at the same time so we spent some time together and decided to ride up to the parkway yesterday since it's absolutely stunnnnnning up there in the fall. I cannot even put into words how beautiful the mountains are right now. If you don't live in Virginia but get the chance to come to Afton, please do me a favor and ride up the Blue Ridge Parkway. You will not regret it. 

So we went up there for about an hour just to enjoy the beautiful view and to take some photos! I never get to take photos of my friends anymore so it was absolutely wonderful. :) Thanks guys, for being so fun to photograph.






Kylie, I loooooove this picture of you! You look gorgeous!
