Simple and emotional. I love the photography over here.
so precious! Really, an heirloom
Hope they have a great year in school!
oh my gosh! have they started school already? we have two more weeks left of peace and quiet. here's to a wonderful new year full of adventures and excitement (and hopefully some peace and quiet thrown in there)!
This was always a time of mixed emotions for me -- sad to see them leave and that our summer fun was over but happy to have some time to myself again. They are growing so fast! Treasure every minute!
beautiful photos leigh...you are such a great storyteller.
Love the photos of the girls playing outdoors; we don't seem to see enough of that anymore. And I always love your first day of school photos. They are treasures, to be sure.
