life of charmings

love, family, happiness

January 7, 2015 in 30A· beach· family· travels

a little seaside stroll

seaside, florida is a seriously adorable little gulf coast town, isn’t it?! steven, maddalena and i finished out our 2014 with a few days visit to the in-laws’ place nearby for some sparkly water, hot coffee, walls with ivy, little strolls and long winter naps. 🙂

[also, that first picture totally flashed me back to another one just like it from when sweet madd was just barely 5 months old! the tiniest bunny!! oh, crazy, flying time!]

[and oh, i could take a million photos of maddalena and her daddy and just melt over and over again. i love that daddies are totally their little girls’ first love! only man she’ll ever need, i keep reminding her, implying winky faces, but actually crossing my fingers that she’ll maybe just never leave us. hehe. ;)]

    What a way to spend the post holiday days! That would take my mind off the blues that usually accompany those days. I think the photo in front of the giant tree should be a yearly must. Even when she is a teenager and can't be held anymore like that. Okay let's not say that ever again because it made me all sorts of sad. I'll just look at those photos of that gorgeous beach to get that off my mind.

    Lovely! What kind of camera do you use? I always adore your photos, both the cuteness in them and the quality 🙂
