Days of Summer - Day 1

I'm a copycat, and a follower. I'm taking a page out of Alysha's book and starting our own "30 Days of Summer" personal photo project.

Thirty days, thirty photos, documenting the summer of 2010. I tried Project 365, where you take a photo every day for a year, but it just didn't work for me, because like Alysha, the commitment was difficult. But capturing 30 days of our summer, 30 days of outdoor fun, lazy summer evenings, popsicle stained faces, water splashes, ocean waves, bug watching and BBQs, this I can do. Feel free to follow me on the journey.

Tonight was a lazy summer evening sort of night visiting the duck pond and looking for the babies.

Let's go find us some ducks!


Are they down there?


Maybe if I stick my head all the way through...


Let's go down for a closer look, shall we?


Closer...


Closer, but still no ducks...


Where could they be?


Here they are!


One thing I love about raising my son in the city where I grew up is being able to take him to do the things I loved to do as a child. Like going to this very duck pond.

Don't Worry, Be Happy

"Happiness is an attitude.
We either make ourselves miserable,
or happy and strong.
The amount of work is the same."

~ Kahlil Gabran

Happiness is:

Spending a warm and sunny day at the park with my son...


Enjoying a picnic lunch...


of sandwiches from Panera Bread (Yum)...


and a refreshing iced tea with lots of lemon.


Happiness is:

Tunnel Slides



long, wobbly bridges,


and even bigger slides!


Happiness is a day at the park, just me and my son.


(all photos were taken with my camera phone, since I forgot my "real" camera)

What made you happy this week? Head on over to Mono Monday at Supermom and share with us!
