An Old Gem

Two years ago, I had my favorite night out with my family. It was a wonderful night. It was right before Halloween. We had some of my husband's family visiting just for fun, I believe. We went to the beach, as we do often, and we just hung out and played. It was a great evening. One of those times you remember as a parent forever. All the kids were getting along great. My husband was out surfing with his brother and sister, and I, of course, was playing with my camera. I was sorting through the photos, and found one that I hadn't seen before. Two years time has passed, and I'm glad to revisit some of the photos that I really never saw. My brother in law was taking his son out to stand on the board. In a few frames, my husband had joined them, and my one year old nephew was balancing in 8 inches of water. I'm hoping over the next few weeks that we'll have a chance to get back out there as a family and enjoy more time playing and just being together.   #blog

    Beautiful shot and story. One of the reasons I love photography is being able to revisit moments in life.

    +Gabriel Bousquet that is very kind to say. I appreciate it. It holds a lot of love for me. They say that people get Mommy Goggles, and can't see beyond the love. I have Auntie Goggles on this one.
