Last week's beach trip was a blessing.  Full of family times, beach walks, delicious food and post-dinner games (Rumicube, anyone?).  This spring was a wild ride of weddings and photo sessions on top of wrapping up my teaching career, so to say that I needed the little peaceful rhythm of the ocean outside my window is an understatement.  And it did not disappoint.  

Each year, my sister-in-law and I team up to make sure that we are able to get a couple of great family photos from our trip!  While it rained almost every evening, we were able to carve out about 30-45 minutes one evening to snag a few!  Because of our shortage of time, we woke up the next morning, got the little girls dolled up and took them down to the sand for a session focused just on them!  We probably should have started that session closer to 7:00, but when you're on "beach time", you just do what you can, when you can ;)  

(All of the photos in the above collage were taken by Hannah, my six year old... she loved walking around snapping these and I adore seeing her perspective and what stands out to her!)

(Thanks to Ali Parks for hitting the shutter button on the one above!! And to Katie Plyler for snapping a few of my own sweet family pod below!)
