Ben, Lisa, Peacocks & Ducks {a lovely engagement session}

Ben and Lisa's wedding is coming up in July-- and it was so fun to hang out with them at the Pasadena Arboretum this weekend! Wow-- I had no idea that we'd get to hang out with DUCKS AND PEACOCKS too. How rad!!

It was beyond hilarious to watch the ducks surround them.
Ben grew up in Thailand, and said that this bamboo reminded him of home. Both Ben and Lisa graduated from Azusa Pacific.
This is one of my favorites!

Mmmm. Their own secret hideaway.

My favorite part about the day was watching them joke and play around all day. These two know how to laugh!
Now for my ULTIMATE favorite part. Ben, Lisa, and a Peacock!
It was probably a bad idea to tell them that my brother got bit on the nose by a peacock when he was on a field trip in preschool... They were still into it though. ;)
You guys were so much fun to hang out with!
I hope moving went well!

holy cow - those peacock closeups are quite spectacular. impressed.

did you know that there is a completely random little bamboo patch at saddleback? down below the amphitheater - out in that desert area, you walk for like 30 feet.
cactus, dirt, cactus, dead things.... bamboo??

you should check it out.
