BAZINGA! Does anyone else edit a session and think it rocks, then revisit the session and wonder why you were so excited in the first place, because they are just okay anyway, and then look at that same session a few months later and fall in love with it all over again? I do that all the time. Did it with these. I love them now, and I wonder how I could ever have thought they were just ho-hum? We are our own worst critics though.

These were from a foggy day this past summer. I remember looking outside and thinking it would be so fun to go out and explore our back-yard in the fog (we were still settling in to the new place at the time). But there is always so much to do, and I knew we’d never even get dressed and out in time before the fog lifted, so we set to the daily grind. The fog hung around for some time, which surprised me, because anytime fog settled in the mornings in Maryland, it was gone within the hour. I simply couldn’t take it anymore. We were dressed and fed and pottied, so we headed out, all in bare feet. Oh those sweet summer, barefoot days!

It was so cute watching the boys tread carefully through the dewy grass, and how it took us almost an hour to walk around the edge of our property line. It’s just under an acre so it’s really not that big, unless you are a one and two-year-old (almost three) and you are exploring a new and magical foggy land. I will never forget this day–the day we had the most amazing adventure in our own backyard. It makes my heart smile just thinking about it.
