Summer Love

Summer is here and it's time for picnic lunches on the back porch and evening swims with dada.

The Paper Mama Photo Challenge



I had a little fun and put a video together of Violet and Robby's swim. The song in the video always takes me straight to my summer in Nashville driving in the car, windows down with the warm breeze flying through my hair.

My buddy and me





That Minnie Mouse just can't leave her side lately. Even flying around the backyard with dada, Minnie has to go along for the ride. Watching these two three play after dinner the other day kept my surgery recovery blues at bay for a while. They're good for things like that.

I took these of Violet almost 2 weeks ago. We were playing our usual afternoon game of "transfer the rocks", a riveting game of moving rocks from one flower bed to another. It was an overcast day and I noticed how blue her eyes were in the diffused light. I had to grab my camera and capture how bright they were. I kept these images unedited. Okay, I might have taken some of the drool off of her chin, but I left her eyes untouched. We just knew she would have brown eyes like her half Mexican daddy. Before she was born we would joke about how funny it would be if she came out with bright blue eyes. Well, to our surprise she did and I swear they get bluer with each passing day.  Those little blue eyes, just like Violet herself, were very unexpected, but what we were least expecting was the amount of love our hearts could hold for someone so small.
