Family Portraits at the Beach ~ Palm Beach

I met this family at church and the same day Katie (the mom) saw a mutual friend (Debbie's) family portraits on facebook that I took, she looked at their photos and my name rang a bell.  It's such a small world!! It's funny how that kind of thing happens in such a big city ;-) It turned out that they were wanting to do family portraits as well! So we set it up.  We headed over to the beach and I photographed away! The girls had a lot of fun.  We let them just run around and be kids! I chased them with the camera, I loved every moment! A few weeks after the session, we ended up getting together to have dinner and hangout! Well, it turns out we both share a very special surprise!

South Florida Sunset

After a full day of activities at the Renaissance Festival with the two older kiddos and their big cousin Lexi, we were all very tired and decided it was time to go home...so we searched and searched for our minivan and after walking for what seemed like all eternity we finally found it ;-)  So we sat there and took in this breathtaking view before leaving the parking lot.  I stood in awe at the beauty of this amazing sunset and what a mighty God we have ~ who could create such splendor and yet at the same time create such a sense of peace! Thank you Lord!!  I just had to take a picture of it on the IPhone (since I seemed to forget the camera at home).  Just thought I'd share this ;-)
