A Little Late // Me + Mine in June


So yes... we're two days late with our Me and Mine photos for June, and technically these photos were actually taken on the 1st of July, but its been a crazy, happy, full season and super busy. We're running on adrenaline with a severe case of endoftermitis and so, so ready for the summer holidays.

Who's with me?!



The pictures aren't perfect... the focus is slightly off, caused by a Mama who leaned her camera on top of her camera case and RAN while she had all her brood sitting in one place. Family photos are SO much more challenging these days... gathering everyone, encouraging everyone to stay put, and smile, and look in the right direction. It's basically never gonna happen. But these imperfect pictures are pretty telling of what life looks like for us right now...

A little bit chaotic, but a whole lot full.

We are so thankful.
