Family Date Night...

One last trip to the Hastings Car Show for this season

(we think anyway...full calendar abounds...)

Had us smiling at some of the new (to us) cars that were out there...

Recognize Eleanor? Gone in 60 seconds?
(& a little boy who did NOT (as per usual) want to be in a photo!)

Some of the new-to-us cars totally reminded us of our childhoods...

(meaning not much of anything to the resident 4 & 5 year olds of the house...)

The General Lee! YEEE HAW!

Funny how seeing an 'icon' like this immediately takes you back to your days of being a kid...

How it is possible, I wondered, that in a few short days,

we will have a school ager ourselves?

A school ager who spent most of this night asking me to take her picture...

and then posing for me. 

Wouldn't you know it...the one night I went without either of my cameras...

and had only my cell phone to rely on for picture service...

I love this little girl and her Independence. 

Her desire to wear what SHE wants, despite what anyone else might think.

How she isn't afraid to wear blue strips with red FLUFF with green pants with blue shoes...

and ask me time and time again to take her photo...

I love family date night and I love the amazing things happening in our lives.

Here's to you Little Miss H ~ And here's to you always wanting to dress your own way, and participate in family date night...long after you've joined the rat race of the school age kids!
