Our Happy Ending

Yesterday was a great day. We had no obligations, nowhere to be, no one to see, no crowds or traffic to deal with, and no pressure. It was a pleasantly quiet holiday that we got to spend together as a family of four. Small, quiet, peaceful. The hub watched The Masters (his perfect Sunday) while the girls and I took a slow long walk to the park (after they plowed through their baskets and found all the eggs that were hidden, of course). We played in the sand and on the swings. We laughed and chatted and were happy just being together.  We had a great day and it was the perfect way to end our Spring Break. For me, my 'Best Shot' today speaks volumes of happiness.

How was your week?

Oh, and I am excited to share THIS with all of you! Just take a look at the cool blog bling there in my right sidebar. I like the way that looks! If nothing else, it's a great way to start the week. Thanks for all the support everyone! You rule.

She is so sweet! I love how the picture contains not only an image, but emotions for the photographer as well.

Tracey, I'm glad you had such a relaxing holiday! Your girls are so beautiful.

This is from a couple of weeks ago but I am still recovering from a very busy week and haven't had time to post much lately.

I also "inspected" my children's easter basket! We had a great Spring Break, but the weekend got really cold. However, we did manage to get outside some.

Here's my shot in the wild:

Precious face. As a child I loved lying on my tummy and swinging.

Here's my usual non-usual take on things...
