stories of summer








I'm just loving Ali Edwards Stories of Summer posts. Especially this post by Molly Irwin. I love her use of water colors to create the title pages and the theme of water, sun, plants...perfect and simple and I can even try to capture that here in Redondo Beach while the boys are busy in the water, sun and sand. I like how she records her memories through senses also:
Seeing: boys on bikes heading off to junior guards daily
Hearing: waves crashing and seals barking
Tasting: chef salads, yougurt and fruit, tea with milk
Smelling: salty sea water and clean sheets in our rented apartment
Feeling: so lucky to be here in our old stomping grounds with good friends
