Weekend at The Beach

Outside of receiving some unfortunate news, taking a break from the "DMV" was a breath of fresh air. It has been years since I had been in the 757 area, 5 or 6 years since I was enrolled at ODU, and being back in the area drug up old memories that I had all but forgotten about. From the wedding (the fam's relative's remarriage) to the beach & diner breakfast in the morning to the Baby Shower & Maternity shoot the next day, it was definitely a weekend to remember.

Spending time with friends at such a monumental point in a family member's life, especially with the remarriage being at the Westin and having an open bar, puts the importance of having true connections in perspective. A lot of times we get so lost in working to create a life for ourselves, that we forget to actually live the life along the way. The process is so essential to success and is something we must learn to cherish along the way. Enjoying moments along the way with those around us, makes each step in the process that so much more fulfilling.
