While everyone else is talking about pumpkin spice lattes and boots and scarves, I'm still thinking about warm weather and iced coffee. I'm definitely a summer girl, and while I love our four seasons, I'm OK with a little bit more summer. I'll be soaking up the very last drop of it this month … and then bring on the scarves (But not the pumpkin spice lattes. Blech.)

September Goals

Finish Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less and read The Short and Tragic Life of Robert Peace
Start Savor (guys, I'm GOING to do it this month, along with the help of …)
Develop a realistic morning routine (more on this later)
Put away the screens and enjoy a long anniversary weekend in Michigan with Nathan
Go on at least one bike ride
Re-paint our guest bedroom (I've never gotten used to the punchy blue)
Go through my closet and make minor changes to my fall/winter capsule wardrobe
Get caught up on vendor galleries (for real this time)
Get caught up on editing before I photograph two pretty September weddings

Photo by Mallory + JustinI can't believe I never shared any photos from our annual shoot! This month seems appropriate because Nathan's and my third anniversary is TOMORROW! Number three! Time flies.

This month will be another whirlwind, but in a different sort of way than the last few months. We have a lot of fun things planned, including a big trip, and I'll be working to get caught up before we leave. My fall is slower paced than my summer, and I'm looking forward to a more relaxing month. :)

Finish my second book from August and read two more (25 in 12): Tattoos on the Heart by Gregory Boyle, Factory Girls by Leslie T. Chang and The First Phone Call from Heaven by Mitch Albom
Celebrate our THIRD anniversary!
Finish editing all August weddings and sessions so I can ...
Explore the UK :)
Start compiling my first capsule wardrobe (a la this blog … a minimalist lifestyle is calling my name!)
Get back into a workout/healthy eating routine once we return from the UK (work out 5/week + no more than two desserts a week)

Simple, but full! What are YOU working on this September?
