My Favorite the 4th of July

The best weekend of Summer has come and gone. I truly love preparing for this holiday and typically go all out!! What better way to celebrate American than on a lake with family + friends. I was grateful to have spent it in two places, first, at Zach's family cabin + then in my hometown where the 4th is celebrated to the hilt. 

I grew up on the lake in the Summer and I can not thank my family enough for raising me that way. It has such a calming affect and brings so many people together on the water! I purchased these koozies from the Lake Effect Co and they are perfect for summer! They are also a Midwest company and I love supporting shops like this! Even though at this age Summer weekends can fill up, we try our very best to escape to one of the best places on earth, up North. 

XOXO,

Calm, Cool + Acoustic

This girl has been the real deal since high school. I had the privilege of driving her to school every day our senior year and since our friendship has been non stop. She is so driven and talented in the music world. She already is a lead singer in a band and now her guitar player and her are going to start an acoustic band! During our shoot I even got a little preview of a song and it was awesome. They are so gifted with performance and I can not wait to see where this takes them! They were so comical to shoot and we had a great time! Find Cool, Calm & Acoustic online to host them at your next celebration! 

XOXO,

Johanna
