    A Family Photo - May 2017

    May 31, 2017 by Ali · 6 Comments

    I was super organised this month and took this photo right at the beginning of May. That sort of organisation never happens so I just had to shout about it!!

    So we headed off to the bluebell woods near to us to go for a nice family walk and hopefully grab some pretty photos. We went here last year and got some beautiful photos and had a lovely time so we were really looking forward to going again. In fact it was on the way to these bluebell woods that we found the elusive yellow fields we had been looking for!

    We had a wonderful time again, it's so nice to let the children play in nature and they had a great time splashing in puddles and even found a hatched bird egg which they found amazing!

    I absolutely love this photo, I think it might be my favourite family photo of the year so far. I put it as my personal facebook cover picture and it got about 100 likes which is pretty huge considering I don't have lots of friends on my personal facebook!

    We even took some funny outtakes too! I absolutely adore this picture, but I'm going to try to think of some ways of mixing the shot up next month. As I was so early with this month's one I guess I have time to plan!

      This is so sweet. I'm going to try and take a family photo this weekend as this has reminded me that we have barely any .. probably two at the most where we're all together!
