There are so many reasons to love where I live.  The best one is the people who are around me.  On Monday night, many of us sat out in the driveway and shared sparklers and any other firework purchases we’d made.  It turned into a second celebration!  I love these moments because they are creating the kind of childhood memories of community that I’ve always wanted for my family.  Thank you friends!

This is for my own Romeo.  I love you.

We have a babysitter and it’s date night.  Let’s see if I can get his attention with these….

Yep, that’ll work.  And then maybe he’ll rub my feet for me when we get home.  {wink}

Spent some time photographing some of the neighborhood children at play yesterday with my 100mm lens.  Today it was my turn to play in Lightroom to see what I could do.  Here are some of my favorites.

What is family to you?  Now is the time to savor yours. 

Thank you to Sandy Puc for allowing the world to see what you do and inspiring me to try to do it too. 

Cheers!
