July feels like the most care-free month, doesn’t it? It starts with a holiday, probably my favorite holiday! We always travel to Port Austin, a little tourist town on Lake Huron. My family has a house there, just a short walk from the lake. It’s a place that has so many core memories and nostalgia tied to it, but also a place that I can actually relax.

It was my dream to return to Cinque Terre, a place we fell in love with on our Italian Honeymoon back in 2012, to renew our vows. I wanted to bring our whole family on an Italian adventure to celebrate this milestone. We booked Luca Vieri to photograph the celebration. My boys walked me down the aisle carrying bouquet I clip from the side of the road. My husband and I shared heartfelt notes to each outer, over looking the sea, before heading down to Monterosso Al Mare for photos and dinner. The day was truly magical!
