solitary perch

Friends,

I am saying a short and tiny goodbye today. Gonna wade out to that sunny warm rock and perch myself upon it and take a summer breather from the blogging. I have some other "things" that need my attention: other photo stuff, family activities, and my own personal care.  All good stuff, just listening to the whisper in my ear that is telling me to take a little blog vacation.

I will be back August 1st.

Until then,
t

p.s. One of my favorite things this summer has been to photograph Bean in her pink hat. I bought this pink hat for her several years ago and she has finally "owned" it. Makes me smile. :)

friday summer love: visiting old friends

This past week we visited old friends.
She walked amongst them, giving each a name, greeting them with a pat-pat.
I do believe this is becoming her favorite summer destination.
Mine too.


p.s. I can' believe how much she has grown in the last year.
Next year she'll be as tall as her friends!

summer love: a blue sky and a pink hat

Just a little bit of our day yesterday.
Yes, it was this beautiful.
It was a day to wear your pink hat just to celebrate all that blue.

Happy Summer Love Friday.

friday: summer love

I am leaving the umbrella Friday posts behind and stepping onto the Summer Love Bus on Fridays. Few words, just snapshots of our summer captured in digital goodness.

Yesterday was our first official summer vacation beach day. The weather was perfect. One summer love bug was ready to fly...

Happy summer!
Happy Friday!

love: beach

True, it is Valentines Day, but instead of doing a post on l.o.v.e., I thought I would show some of my weekend love. The weather these past few days has been amazing, spring-like, gorgeous. Makes me love where I live, and thankful for those spontaneous trips to the coast. Truly, this is one of my most favorite places to be, especially with those that I love.

My favorite picture....

And then the sun went down and I snapped a few more in the remaining light. These two of my son were pretty much the only ones I caught of him. And of course they are images I have captured over and over again in his eleven years of life. Is there a boy out there who does not find joy in throwing wet muddy sand?

Once the sun set, the temp dropped immediately and Bean snagged her daddy's sweatshirt. I was so happy to catch her in this last light. She is so good to me in giving me a moment to snap her picture. Love you Bean.

My Valentine's wish for you blogger friend...that you may know honest love and give honest love, not just on this day, but all of the others before and after.  You are worth more than you can comprehend.
Worthy of more love than all of the oceans can hold, and then some.

xoxo
