End of school...and Start of Summer

I have officially finished with school, and we are officially started with summer! :-) Now that is something to rejoice about. :-) I've finished my photography class. And I've learned so much from it. Now I just need to put it all to good use. :-) My final assignment was to make a slideshow of at least 20 pictures. I figured the perfect thing to do it about was S-U-M-M-E-R! :-) And what better to portray summer than to capture the simplicity and essence of summer...kids during summer. :-) I shot these the weekend before Memorial Day weekend and the weekend of Memorial Day weekend. Of course they include my nieces and nephew...because they ARE the cutest kids alive. :-) At least in my opinion they are. :-) I used these in my final project slideshow, and they were a huge hit.

Enjoy, I hope they take you back to summer when you were a kid. The summers where the only worry you had was getting as much playtime in the pool as possible, before you mom came out and told you to come in the house. Or when you were a 20 month old, discovering ice cream for the first time and running every time you see mom because you fear that she will take it away before it is fully covering your face. :-) When these were the only worries in the world. Oh...to be a kid again. :-)


























I couldn't leave Grandpa Desert out of the mix :-)....


Until next time,
