Post Wedding Backyard Party!

Because Marshall and I had such a small wedding in Maryland, we decided to have a backyard party last September for those we couldn't invite/ couldn't come to the wedding.  Here's just a few detail photos from the party.  It was nice getting to use a lot of the things I had made for the wedding again.  I even made the same cookies I made for the wedding *drools just thinking about them*

The Fantastic Umbrella Factory

The Fantastic Umbrella Factory in Charlestown, RI is quite the unique place.  Little shops and a cafe tucked into pathways covered in winding vines and bright flowers.  It has a super bohemian, hippie vibe, especially when you walk into one of the little shops and incense is burning. Chickens and ducks roam around the property and there are even emus and goats!  They host large greenhouses filled with interesting plants, like some of my favorites- pitcher plants and passion flowers.  It's a fun, off the beaten path, kind of place to visit even if you aren't in the market for incense or flowers.

Summer butterfly

It's been extremely hot outside the past few weeks (maybe it hasn't been that long, but it certainly feels like it.)  I ventured out in the heat to walk around the gardens surrounding my house to snap a few pictures of flowers and this pretty lil' fella posed for a few shots.
