Parts of my holiday...

A little tree frog on our dock

I love this stump on our shoreline

It was so hot that I even went in the freezing water (watch the upper left corner)

Heading, by boat, to the fireworks

The flash did crazy things to our photos

Lovely fireworks on the lake
How was your weekend?
Yours,







The lake is beautiful! It's so clear. Glad you had a wonderful holiday :)
These are adorable photos! I love the gif. of you guys in the water. The water is so clear and refreshing looking!!
Happy 4th!
sounds like a perfect weekend! and i love your cossie with all the spots...it's so hard to find one that is pretty as well as flattering.
looks like a fab weekend.
Wow, the fireworks above the lake look beautiful! Looks like your weekend was fantastic :)
No special holiday here in germany over the weekend, so I didn't do something interesting ;)
Your couple pic in the sea is just sooo romantic. The pictures are lovely :) Happy 4th of July :)

Whoa those fireworks are so much better than San Francisco fireworks. I'm impressed. That tree stump is so beautiful. That landscape is so gorgeous. Happy 4th of July, these photos are so great :)

it looks like you had a great time! what kind of camera are you using? the frog pic is especially pretty.
these photos are amazing! i especially love the one of the two of you in the water.

I really like that swimsuit. I need to get a new one, I think.
i love your baithingsuit, it so cute. i am addicted to polka dots!
that's fun! I like the firework photos at the end. Somehow we were baffoons here in NY and were not aware that the fireworks would not be visible from the rooftop we were on, so instead it just sounded like the Revolutionary War all over again. bummer
How lovely and American. Sounds dreamy. Wish there was some water for me to go in!

what a lovely holiday! that picture of you & cole is definitely frame-worthy!
Beautiful.
Sad that it has to end but it was a good weekend.
These photographs are absolutely stunning.
Such a gorgeous bathing suit!
Looks like a beautiful place, i'm so jealous it's the depths of winter here at the moment!
Hope you have a safe journey home

That frog is so beautiful. Frogs have been my favourite animal forever! I've owned too many. I caught a toad yesterday that was squeeking as I picked it up. I showed my sons but they weren't interested. :( Maybe when they are older. Then I set it free.
I really love that shot of the fireworks (the first one). You two are so adorable. Love all these shots. Looks like you two had such a lovely weekend.
Aww the little frog! What a great bay photo, the light is amazing! And the firework shots are amazing!

That looks like a wonderful weekend, Maria! You also always have the most wonderful swimsuits! Because of you, I nearly bought the same swimsuit at Modcloth, even though I know I'll get to the beach exactly 3 times this summer. And I know I won't look nearly as beautiful in it as you do!

That photo of fireworks on the left - wow! Looks like a giant cotton ball exploded in the air! Weather looks gorgeous, lucky thing.
Maria, I adore your moving photos! Do you mind if I ask how you do them?

I love the photo of you and Cole in the water. It looks so darn refreshing, I am jealous. The swimsuit is so nice and reminds me of my own thrifted polka dot one.
Eek, I just posted a photo of a frog on my latest post too. He was huge and definitely not cute like this one.
The boat looks like a lovely way to see the fireworks.

Adorable post !
Beautiful Photos. I love your bathing suit and that lake looks amazing!
These are beautiful, Maria! The picture of you and Cole holding hands in the water is so truly touching.
This may sound silly, but it took forever to locate your comment section! Anyway, I'm happy I have because I love your blog! It's so real, and your fashion sense is pretty amazing! I love how vintage and modern it feels at the same time. The moving gif is precious too :)
wonderful post!
