Friends + volleyball at Coulon Beach in June '11.

. . . . .

I'm so glad it's finally summer. Hope you all had a fantastic first week. Mine was a bit hectic and crazy. I constantly felt like I was playing catchup with everything. But I'm looking forward to a bit of normalcy for the next few weeks to come.

My friend, Anh, finally got hitched in a much anticipated wedding yesterday at Golden Gardens Bathhouse. Here are some photos of the venue (from a different wedding). The afternoon ceremony and reception came together beautifully as the morning clouds cleared and made way for the sun to shine effortlessly against a sand and water backdrop. Pretty amazing, I'd have to say.

I also got a bit of volleyball in. Say what?! Yes, volleyball, in my dress no less. A bit unorthodoxed, I know, but very fun. Can you imagine if I had done that in the Victorian Age? I'd probably bring shame to my family and be shunned for the rest of my life. Thank goodness it's the 21st century and I'm not one to follow certain female norms.

And, I did a little update on the blog. Pink and yellow are quickly becoming one of my favorite color combos for this summer. So bright and cheery.

What are your favorite summer colors? Do you have one?
