it's always a bit odd to visit the island during the winter. there's virtually no traffic, most houses are dark with empty driveways, and many restaurants are closed for the off-season. i coudn't help but fast-forward six months in my mind, when we'll be back for our annual family reunion amidst the thousands of cars crawling down the one main road. that thought made me appreciate the quiet even more ... especially when we all four walked down to the beach and were able to let wonder roam without her leash, since there was literally no one in sight for far as the eye could see.
liam and his soccer teammate braeden, who never could get quite their
rowing in sync but managed to navigate the sound nevertheless
our paddleboarding princess
all wonder needs is a tennis ball and room to run, and she's in heaven
a much-deserved rest
we got a new fancy camera for christmas and used it for the first time. this is one of liam's artistic shots ...
... and one of my action shots. i still have much to learn
you just can't beat shorts in mid-february
susanna is her momma's daughter. even with the sun beating down she wanted a jacket
panting hard with a sandy face. needless to say, she slept well on the drive home
emulating the pooch, perhaps
