Hang on for the Ride!

I love this photo! It makes me smile.

red shirts
red flower
blue jeans
clenched hands
vintage trike
intense expressions
~serious business~

It's magic, right?

It's childhood.
The way it used to feel.
The way I used to feel.

I love this photo. It makes me smile.

    Grandparenting makes the magic reappear! When my kiddos were little I feel I missed out because of being their parent, you know, busy, preoccupied with daily life...now I have time to just observe, get involved and laugh!

    Such a sweet pic...those red sweaters light up the whole picture and take you back a few years too! It looks so nostalgic with the determination of trike riding and yet so very current too! What a bunch of darling grandchildren you have!

    Bryce looks like he is in deep concentration. I REALLY love this photo and am trying to figure out how to make my wall grow as I would love to have this one on it. It is getting hard to choose, so many are worthy of being on my wall. I guess I will have to start changing them once in a while so that I can have a change of scenery in my hallway. I can see how just looking at it would make you VERY happy.

    Nothing like grandchildren! And ones dressed in red all the better. :)

    My favorite pictures of all are the ones caught in just normal fun...like this one.
