heat wave.

Bridget Caldwell was my son's first grade teacher many years ago.

My kids both took a field trip to her family's farm.

We were all set to head out there for their photo session.

until a suffocating heat wave settled upon us.

Our window of opportunity to catch some family pics was pretty small,

so we moved the family inside.

These images remind me, though,

it's the people, not the location, that make family pictures treasures.

(I still hope we can go to the farm someday!!)
