| Troy and Emma hiking in Santa Rosa, CA June 2010 |
We went to a family reunion in Santa Rosa in June.. here is Emma with my cousin Amy.. they were given matching PJ's so cute. This is Emma's silly camera face!
Grandpa Todd and Emma in Santa Rosa, more silly faces by Emma! Other things not pictured, our Napa Valley trip, seeing Troy's Grandma (age 94) in Texas in the spring. Emma's first trip to Disneyland with my long time friends, Emma's 2nd birthday in SoCal with Troy's family, countless beach trips, and Troy's birthday trip to Disneyland.
Below is us for Halloween, Emma is a baby duck, I'm a soldier in my father-in-laws jacket and Troy is a mechanic with a few extra pillows to fill out his overalls!
Just because you don't live in an urban, ritzy area, doesn't mean you can't find a beautiful place to get married in. Rural areas can be surprising gorgeous locations. These hidden treasures can be wonderfully accommodating because of their size and out-of-the-way locations. Many bed and breakfast inns these days also have renovated barns that can be used for receptions. Great old barns provide wooden dance floors, rustic high-beamed ceilings that can be enhanced with fairy lights at night for lighting.
In wine country, you can host a wine-tasting reception and give favors with a wine theme to your guests. Many small to medium-sized wineries can also offer wedding venues.
Rural areas also provide great natural resources like National Parks. Remember to get permission for any wedding in a park, but there are countless possibilities, tall waterfalls, huge meadows, dormant volcano's! Be creative!!
Troy likes to say, that if you put a bird on something, I'll buy it. (Pillows, paper, cakes etc. )
