Playing in the new car

Today, the girls and I started our day by blasting the radio and playing in the backseat of the new car. We’re squeezing in fun where we can as summer break comes to an end.

Favorite Photo Friday: “I need to get my camera!”

I love discovering beautiful light, grabbing my camera, and then hearing my daughters say, “I need to get my camera!”

What a delightful way to start our Friday morning together!

An Unexpected Morning

A change of plans created an unexpected morning; I had time to relax, explore the city (with camera in hand, of course), and enjoy the beautiful morning light.

I discovered gorgeous colors and textures,

bricks. windows, and metal all joined together in an alleyway,

a shiny new drum set needing a player,

the rich reds of an antique couch through the curtains, 

and a seemingly magic doorway.

Being able to take my time and capture the beauty of everyday was a wonderful way to start my morning.
