Photo a day June & Roswell Lavender Festival 2012


I can’t believe it’s June already!! 2012 is really flying by. This weekend I caught up on my #photoadayjune challenge by Fat Mum Slim and enjoyed the great weather we had yesterday by heading to the Roswell Lavender Festival at Historic Barrington Hall. We toured gardens, went shopping, ate a yummy dinner on a patio, and had a very relaxing and enjoyable day. Check it out! {Jane came too!}
