Happy end of July! It might be my favorite month. We’re in the middle of my favorite season, for us that means a lot of lake time and swimming up in Michigan. 4th of July – quite possibly my favorite holiday. We had a blast this year. The boys really got into it this year…
This spring my oldest son figured out how to swim underwater on his own while we were on vacation in Florida. It was so much fun for him, we had to pull him out of the pool every day. Once he figured it out, there was no stopping him! I’m entering this shot of him…
When I saw this painted building last summer I just had to take a picture of it. My boys were pretty fascinated too. Canon EOS3 | 50 mm | Kodak Portra 400 | Developed and scanned by The Darkroom

It’s the perfect beach camera because sand and water can get all over it and it’s no problem. And my kids can drop it (which they have) and it’s all good. All of my underwater shots, and some of my beach shots are taken with this camera. You can see some of these shots here and here. […]ReplyCancel
This month has been more of the same this winter: snow and ice. My littlest has fully embraced it as well as the movie “Frozen”, and like so many little kids is completely obsessed with Princesses Anna and Elsa. He’s seen it in the theater four times now. And we have fashioned makeshift “prince capes”…
Krista - OMG, this is awesome! Your kiddos always seem to be having a blast, you make summer in Michigan look like heaven. Love this image!
