Ah sun...where have you been all my life?

...Or at least this summer...I'll be honest:  on days like today it's a struggle to stay inside working and actually get anything done because I'm constantly daydreaming about being outside and scheming to get there.  I have SOOO many blog posts to catch up on, Friends...and already it is September 2nd (Happy birthday to the best Mother-in-law I could ever ask for, by the way!)...school is starting on Tuesday...4 more days of lazy summer bliss (or pull-my-hair out craziness, depending on when you ask) and our little family will be thrown into the routine of early mornings, homework, flag football, rain, and pumpkin spice lattes (it was starting to sound kinda awful so I through in the bit about lattes...).  Admittedly though,  I'm mostly a Oregon-summer girl.  Clarifying with the "Oregon" part because I know summers in other parts of the country are dreaded by some.

On one of the beautiful days way back at the end of June,  I was invited over to this sweet family's house to capture the wonder and love and happiness you see.  I could've hung out with them for much longer too...they just give off the kindest and relaxed vibe,  makes everyone comfortable.  And of course I enjoyed soaking up my share of cute-girliness!
