Lately, I’ve been grateful for beach trips.
And family time.
For new houses and fig trees.
For dress shopping excursions (and finding “the one”!)
And for the instant film that makes capturing these memories so fun.
*All photos here except dress shopping were captured on a Land Camera 210 using Fp-100c film [no longer manufactured]. The photo in front of the bridal shop was taken using an Instax Neo 90 on Instax Mini Color film.
Lately I’ve been grateful for a lake to float in.
And skiers to spot.
For family talents.
And brave hearts.
But mostly I’ve been grateful for togetherness, and the blessing of family.
Lately I’ve been grateful . . .
. . for small hands holding old cameras.
And for the old-fashioned fun of waiting for “instant” film to develop.
For $6 goodwill dresses, and a sewing machine to re-fashion them.
For new backsplashes.
And for hot summer hikes.
Lately I’ve been grateful for birthday girls.
And for pink birthday cupcakes with sprinkles.
For family photos.
And plaid shirts.
And I’ve been grateful for the Dad of this crew & his trademark mustache. He makes Father’s Day worth celebrating.
Lately I’ve been grateful…
for painting classes,
family birthday celebrations,
for espresso & new countertops.
And for signs of spring!
Unbidden Grace
