August Long Weekend

August Long is a pretty big deal around here. We don’t get a very long summer in Alberta, so what we get we definitely take advantage of, long weekends are a must!  Since starting my photography business, I’ve sort of had a deal with my hubby that I don’t book more than one long weekend wedding a year.  Those times are pretty precious to us, so that last thing I want to do is ruin it by taking a Saturday booking on every long weekend. This year we had a pretty epic camping trip planned, and many of our friends were able to make it out, which was awesome.  We headed to the Pembina River, an absolute gem of a spot just over an hour from the city. It’s an amazing spot to camp, party, relax, and best of all: float the beautiful river.  This was definitively one for the books 🙂aug long.13-27 FB-aug long.13-3 FB-aug long.13-4 FB-aug long.13-5 FB-aug long.13-8

These two had it a little rough with no cloud cover.  Fair skinned pouts 😉

It’s sort of a tradition that we have going to built a 2×4 table and then decorate it with the weekend theme.  Last year we were limited to the pencils and sharpies we had on hand – this year I was resourceful and brought some paints and brushes.  Good time had by all!
