Hello to Summer- Foster Beach

At the tippy top of every summer bucket list is a trip to Foster Beach. This place just has such a special place in our hearts as the girls have grown up playing on this sand and in these waters!

The girls got to work digging a hole- as one does at the beach. They made a fort (of sorts) and some little friends in the process.

Bubbles at the beach are also a tradition. There's always wind and they are so happy! Usually it's one of the younger girls but Liesel had a lot of fun playing with them.

No one should ever get too old to become disenchanted with bubbles. Sydney joined her and I love the sheer happiness on their faces.

 I have far fewer photos of Gita and Ireland because they were both off playing. Gita did return for the occasional snack Brent lovingly packed and to (reluctantly!) reapply SPF.

Most people are whipped after a day at the beach but it just seemed to energize this girl!

Ireland befriended a little girl- like toddler age and they were two peas in a pod. A very grateful mother came over to thank me for it since she was actually able to enjoy herself a bit! I was able to snap this photo of Ireland with her freckles all ablaze in the sun looking so happy (albeit tired).

Liesel is always up for a beach photo shoot so she's the one I was able to capture the most.

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? ~Mary Oliver

The perfect way to kick off summer!
