Too soon! too soon!

The M family spent the last few years abroad with the US Navy. Now they’re back in the states (YAY!!). They wanted to take photos that would document their time here, while also highlighting the role the military has played in their lives. So we decided on the DC War Memorial, the John Paul Jones statue (did you know he’s the father of the US Navy? How cool is that?), and the World War II Memorial . All of which have GORGEOUS morning light.

The kids ran and played and made me laugh over and over again. And, in between all the fun, we managed to take some great family photos.

I love this season!!
