A Day in My pArAdiSe
Ya know how after Christmas, it can be a let-down? Not always, but CAN be. Well, December 27th was a great day for us because my little brother and his wife and kids came to our little piece of paradise to visit my little family and our parents and older sis who lives with my parents. I wanted to take brother and his family to my beloved lake for a family photo shoot. I’ve only posted one photo of him with my little niece peeking through the rocks. Of course, I had to include photos of my daughter with Kilo, and my red-haired boy. Ryan loves being in trees and on the rocks. He scares me. But, he IS MY boy and I used to do those very things when I was young and fearless. Now, I am the fearful one. RYAN!!! Get aWAY from the edge!!! My brother said he enjoyed watching me and my passion for photography. He and his family TOTALLY made my day. I am ever so thankful for them; we have a special bond.

Terrific photos! What a beautiful family! Love the pic of Ryan and the lake! Makes me wanna jump right in and swim!
@AbidingontheVine - Thank you, Darlin’! I absolutely adore that lake and its surroundings!
@SealedbyGrace - It does look inviting, doesn’t it? Ryan was WAY up high and I was afraid he’d fall in. He’s a daring boy.
