Our Dancing Silhouette

In some parts of the world, people talk about dancing in the rain.

But here in Arizona...

we dance in the sun. 

As the sun began to set, I watched Breeley twirl and dance in her little tutu, completely lost in the moment. With the golden light behind her, she became the sweetest little silhouette against the Arizona sky.

There was no stage, no audience, and no music playing...just a little girl with a big imagination, dancing simply because she could.

Those are the moments I love capturing the most.

The ones where childhood is completely carefree. Where a sunset becomes a spotlight, a backyard becomes a stage, and a little girl becomes a beautiful reminder to slow down and enjoy the simple joys around us.

Her tiny steps, her spinning skirt, and her free spirit captured a season of life that passes far too quickly.

My little dancing beauty...

Keep dancing in the sunshine.

JUST ME AND THE GIRLS

The boys (Wes and Dawson) are off to scout camp.  Mr. B.T.C and Nathan just left on a hunting trip to Utah.  That leaves me and the girls home alone.  Get ready to shop until you drop girls! This is gonna be a fun week! Late night movies, pizza, chocolate cake and popcorn.  Afternoon and late night swimming.  Shopping bags galore. New shades of lipstick.  Yep, that pretty much sums up the week.  Now hide the Nordi bags girls Mr. B.T.C is coming home:)

CALI TRIP

Craig Family Vacation Fall 2014 from Lorri Craig on Vimeo . The kids wanted to head to Cali over Fall Break. I had a few other ideas in mind, but the boys had their hearts set on taking their dirt bikes along and trying out some of the tracks in Southern California.  It turned out to be a good idea because they seriously had the time of their lives. Like Father, Like Son... There is nothing like family trips! We bond, laugh and create memories.  We sure did miss our oldest son Nathan.  He put it best when in a recent letter when he said,  "Well right about now you are probably on vacation. It's a bummer we're not all together, but that's alright! I'm over here bringing souls unto Christ, so I win!"   You can read more about his adventures HERE .
