F family

We have been having some terrible weather here this summer, but between thunderstorms, I managed to capture some photos of this beautiful family!  This is at their family farmhouse that has been in the family for many generations, so it was a special place to them.  I enjoyed watching them just be a family in this simple, picturesque setting! 







I Heart Faces Photo Challenge- Summer Fun

I have so many images of summer fun in my collection that it was difficult choosing which image I wanted to use for this month's photo challenge. As I looked through all of the beautiful images already entered at I Heart Faces , I noticed that there were no images of baseball!  And really, what is summer without baseball??!!  So I scrapped the idea of a photo with sprinklers or a swimming pool and instead went with the great American pastime...BASEBALL!  This image is of my little guy at his first "big boy" baseball game...a Cleveland Indians game.  He was so excited and his eyes were filled with wonder and awe as we entered the stadium and he took it all in!  This image is of him at field level looking up into the enormous stadium.  Maybe he was thinking that he could some day be playing on this field, with all these fans, or maybe he was just thinking "man this is a ginormous baseball field", but either way, I just love the look of awe in his eyes in this shot! 
Every time I see this image, I get nostalgic and think of my own childhood of watching baseball.  And I just can't help but think to myself, "Take me out to the ball game...take me out to the crowd.." (you know the rest...and now you'll be singing it to yourself too! haha)

Head on over to I Heart Faces to see all of the other stunning images entered in this month's fun theme of "Summer Fun"!
