Happiness is long walks on the beach.

Sustained happiness is having a professional photographer nearby so we can “take photos as a return ticket to a moment otherwise gone.” (Katie Thurmes)

Grumpiness is having to wear jeans for said photo shoot. I hate jeans.

Chaos is bringing a non-compliant puppy along.

Thanks Wendy Marie Photography for capturing our smiles and mayhem. We had so much fun playing in the sand and you made us look good(enough) doing it! (See what I did there?!)

10/10 would do it again. Preferably in sweatpants next time.
