sweet memories

These pictures are all from our trip to Fripp Island in August, 2004. Nine and a half months before Everett made his appearance into this world, we took our last trip as a family of four.

I adore looking back at pictures, and although I do suck at a lot of aspects of being a mom, the one thing I am so glad I've done is document their childhoods. Even back when I was a just a mom with a point-and-shoot, I made sure I was always there taking pictures.

These pictures make me so happy and so sad all at the same time. I look at two-year old Gray and wonder where his baby-ness has gone. I love his soft chubbiness. And Miller has gone from innocent 5-year old, to knows-entirely-too-much-about-everything fourth grader.

How easily we forget.

Sound asleep in the bottom bunk at the beach house, wearing his size 6 diaper. At two.


Aw, he is just so little here. Someone bring me a tissue.








He is so seriously delicious in all of his ampleness.
