Just for Fun

Our retirement, birthdays, etc gift from the kids was a family photo shoot on the beach.

While we waited for the photographer we quickly shot some of our own;

a good opportunity!

From oldest to youngest ... we were ready!

These are times I do feel like a fly on the wall,

observing the reality of our three grown up,

and reminding us of how life goes on. 

Words can hardly express the sentiments

of seeing the next generations

grow and be their own, yet part of us. 

The four gentlemen

The seven maidens

The moms

The photographer arrived and we headed to the beach.

The following photos are random candid shots

from my phone, keeping out of the way of the photographer,

while she was focusing on individual family photos, etc. 

I'm looking forward to seeing what she saw. 

My view as we left the beach, 

expressing feelings that make me smile. 

All this, as they say,

because two people fell in love. 

And, moreso, because God is faithful.
