France ~ part deux

Our visit to Southern France was specific to the Languedoc region where we explored different towns, beaches, cathedrals and amazing restaurants. In every direction, on every street the villages were painted in brightly washed color. Every house had shutters of every hue, not the perfectly sanded and painted look we're used to here, but the weathered, splintered, and sunwashed beauty that only comes with time. Every door, gate and balcony was crafted with amazing detail. It was truly a feast for the eyes.

love all that wrought iron, and the lavender plant against the green gate is so pretty, it's making me rethink our color palette for our house...

Your images look so gorgeous, I can't imagine what it must've been like in person.

It was so nice chatting with you a bit the other night. Brianna, as always, did an exceptional job at the Kirk casa.

Hey, we should do the flea market together Wednesday morning. You up for it?
