MINNESOTA | The Falls

MINNEHAHA STATE PARK | Minnesota

The photo on the left is perfect! So real for those three. I love it. The rock? Mr. Evan found that on the bottom of the creek while we were all skipping rocks. I love that too. And him.

Our minds just did not go where they were supposed to that day. It was a very late drive to Minnesota the night before (and into the morning) and a very early morning picking up Zakk from camp this same day. We did not even think to bring the boys' swimming suits so Zakk has Evan's extra shorts on and poor Wyatt has my shorts on that I threw in the car for an extra. As long as it meant they could play in the creek- they really didn't mind!

The only time I get in front of the camera is when one of these three are brave enough to get behind it. They are all my photographers in training. Zakk stepped out for this one so that I could be in a photo- like I had any trouble talking him into NOT being in a photo!

The photo on the right of Evan and Zakk laughing? You'll never imagine what Wyatt could have done to cause this much laughter between the four of us. Unfortunately, that will have to stay a mystery for all of you!

This photo is above but much prettier when enlarged.

We enjoyed our time here at Minnehaha Falls. We walked/hiked the trails, played in the creek, and got to see the best view of the waterfall. There is no doubt that we will be visiting this again sometime but first we would like to check some other "to do while in MN" activities off of the list. We are thinking Fort Snelling or the Mill City Museum if we can fit it in next time. Have any of you been there? Any suggestions?

Family Time | Venturing Out

JUST TWO LITTLE BOYS {My favorite little boys; Zakk, Wyatt}. JUST ONE MAN {My lovely boyfriend; Evan}. JUST ONE PHOTOGRAPHER {Me hehe}. JUST THIS THIS BEAUTIFUL GOD-GIVEN CREATION {Earth}. JUST EXPLORING {That's us}.

{Boys will be boys} ..but I still love these three

One of my favorite photos of this little boy that I have ever taken. {Wyatt, age 7}

He wants to be just like daddy. With everything-all the time. In fact, both of the boys do. The clothes they wear, the the things they like, the activities they want to do, the goals they strive for and the things they succeed in all come from their will to be like their father. I always laugh when it comes into play but I actually adore it.

No Wyatt. Nobody wants to smell your armpit. We now assume that is what he was going for but at the time none of us were sure! Silly boys.

{We like to be silly. We like to have fun}

They all three wish they were super heroes on the daily.

I'm so proud of Zakk (not pictured). He is getting so good at using the camera! He secretly enjoys it but would probably never admit it to anyone. Wyatt shows interest too, he is always trying to learn how to use the camera and wanting to take photos. They are my photographer's in training!

Me and my sweetie.
