Living in the Moment: January edition

The moon.  The beach.  The kite.  The frisbee.  My dudes.  The amazing colors of the sunset.  The little birdies.  IMG_1177Hey, apparently I’m not the only school-bus-colored vehicle in town…IMG_1172IMG_1185IMG_1191No wind this evening.  If the kite was stay up, Little Dude needed to keep running!  And speaking of Little Dude running, this whole scenario reminded me oodles of his old game of [what we called] “frogger” as he ran through the tennis courts while we were hitting balls back and forth.  This was him running his kite through the frisbee path …kitekite2IMG_1262frisbeeIMG_1331IMG_1265kite3IMG_1297IMG_1306IMG_1337IMG_1350IMG_1351IMG_1353IMG_1366IMG_1367IMG_1377IMG_1385IMG_1388IMG_1405An just like that, the sun light changed from gentle hues of pink and purple to vibrant orange …IMG_1424IMG_1433IMG_1468

I'm with Robyn, I'm jealous of the beach too! But man Lady, the way you capture these colors is stunning! Now excuse me while I go and try to build a kite and relive childhood :)

Oh, Susan! You kill me with those sunsets. Whenever I look at your pictures I imagine the fun and the laughter carrying through the air. Always, always leaves me with a smile.

I really like your colors. I love your dudes. I love your family : )

I will go and visit your friend for sure. Any friend of yours is a friend of mine!

And the birds flying over the water? Next giant canvas, right there. It's perfection!

Wow! Incredible photos! I need to visit that beach. Like. NOW! (as it is 20 degrees and with lots of snow and wind!).

Okay, the picture of your car behind the bus is too funny, and with the yellow street lines?! I love it!
And your pictures at the beach are amazing!! AMAZING!
