It didn’t fully sink in until I was editing these pictures of my kids, but we were at a beach…in December watching the sunset, while it was snowing and 4 below back home. Why don’t I live in California again?
I love this shot of my kids looking for seashells.


Max decided it would be fun to use his seashell as a scoop and dump sand on Lia’s head.

These next 2 are the perfectly imperfect family picture. So much happening in one frame and I think they would look nice hanging next to each other on our walls.







This is my new favorite image of Ava. Dang, I love that cheesy smile!

Maybe this is my new favorite image of Ava, I can’t decide![]()




Lia was a little unsure about the sand.

Julie Branyan - The photos of your kids are always my favorite. They are absolutely amazing. I’m so jealous you were on the beach and avoiding all the horrible snow. It was ridiculous how much snow we got in Omaha.
