Earlier this month Walker and I traveled to Michigan. We planned the trip to get a few things settled for our wedding next year but we left a lot of time for fun. Luckily the weather at the beginning of the trip was warm enough to swim because it was almost all I could talk about. I had been swimming a few times over the summer in Seattle but there is just something so refreshing and healing about swimming in a familiar lake and setting. I probably dived in about 3 times on our first night there. Walker decided to kayak around the lake a bit first and then after a game of tennis Walker, my dad and I all jumped in for a spontaneous swim!

Not only did we have an amazing time swimming in the lake, the surroundings were perfect for getting some wedding details figured out while warming up by a fire. I probably won’t be sharing a lot of details ahead of time but I’m super excited about it and I hope its warm enough next year in September to swim also.
