Welcome to our 5th annual Making Fools of Ourselves blog post! Yet another wonderful installment to show you just how gross we end up looking on wedding days. Here are more out-of-focus pictures of me looking totally bewildered and overwhelmed, and more photos of Geoff looking perfectly content and calm. More hairstyle changes than you can shake a fist at, more dog wrangling, and more awkward looking yoga poses in a corner while we wait for someone to bring us food. We’re not going to pretend we look good. We don’t. The light’s bad. The backgrounds are bad. We’ve been on our feet for eight hours trying to pose twelve drunken wedding party members and all we’ve eaten is a protein bar. But this blog post serves as proof that…. Geoff… can… stand in for my light metering?… and that I….need a step stool sometimes? I don’t know, you guys seem to like it.

The Outer Banks.

The fam goes to the Outer Banks every year for vacation. Here’s some of our favorites from our most recent trip. :) Shout to my mom for taking some of these pictures of us, to my dad for taking us parasailing, to Geoff for photobombing most of my pictures, and to Laura and Steve for ensuring that, even while I’m back home in Durham, I still sometimes find myself humming the Star Realms song.

New Orleans, Louisiana

Geoff and I had the opportunity to visit New Orleans and southern Louisiana for Jess+Steve’s wedding. It was awesome. Here are some photos of other awesome stuff we saw. :) Alas, no vampires, but plenty of alligators, swamp pigs, and visually fantastic places.
