Welcome, Summer Break! We've been waiting on you!
Even though Izzy had to come with me to school to finish up some things, she wasn't upset because we had a playdate scheduled with Miss Lexie. It's been a long time since these two got to play, and they wasted no time catching up. I'm fairly certain that they could play all day without stopping if we would let them. We decided on Warrior's Path, because is there a better park than Warrior's Path? Ashley treated us to a bicycle boat ride - that's what Izzy calls it. Although we had the boat for an hour, eighteen minutes was enough for the girls. We managed to stretch it out thanks to some ducks that needed chasing. They ran, they climbed, they screamed about sharks coming to get us, they dug in sand, they threw rocks in the creek. They did just enough to get good and dirty, hungry and tired. It was a good day for the girls made complete with giant ice creams from Sonic.
For the mommas, it was an equally good day. Along with catching up with life happenings, we played with cameras and lenses! We found things that work and things that failed miserably. We laughed at blown out images, horrible angles, and fuzzy bottoms. It was a perfect playdate for us, too. I love this girl! Ashley and I have been friends for fifteen years, but I still remember that first day we met. Of course now, life gets in the way of us seeing each other very often, but we try to get together as much as we can. Watching our children grown is definitely a bonus.
At this point, I don't know which photos I took (unless I look at the f-stop!), but this is a compilation of our work from just one camera. There are a ton of photos. I might post an update later, but for now, here are our masterpieces. The kids, at least. Maybe not the photos. ;)
Oh, and if you haven't followed Ashley on Instagram yet, do it! Find her at ab_photography___!
Doing her happy dance because Lexie is finally here!
