It was a BRIGHT and sunny day, a year ago this week, when Sugar Bear and I took a little trip up to my parents farm. It is usually fairly cool and breezy where we live, so the hot temperatures had us begging for relief.
I took Sugar Bear down to the family creek to have a little splish splashing fun.
The sun was harsh....
The water was cold....
Sugar's cheeks were flush with heat....
It was a bit of a photographic challenge, but I was up for it.
What a beautiful way to spend a late afternoon in the BRIGHT, BRIGHT sun!
Later that evening, we sat in lawn chairs enjoying the slight breeze.....the sound of the sprinklers watering the lawn...
And the Bright sunlight fading behind the hills.
Life was GOOD!
Thank you for stopping by my blog this week. Have a great weekend! I look forward to seeing all your BRIGHT posts!
46 Live It or Love It:
Lovely photos as always. It seems a very nice place that your parents have, imagine having your own creek :)
My bright shot will be up later, after midnight.
I do love your series. And, I love the new look of your blog!!
Lovely pictures taken of Sugar, the best part of looking at Sugar pictures are the way you so often capture the best moments naturally :)
Beautiful bright shots! I know how difficult it is to shoot in the bright sun, you did a great job.
Beautiful shots. Water really reflects light so well.
Oh your photos are great. :)
I have another post this week to mention, apart from my photohunt one - it's at the top of my blog and I am one proud mom!
What sweet pictures those first several are. And that one of the sprinkler is really neat photography! So is the last one with the way the light shines through.
Sounds like a fun time and you got some wonderful photographs. Good take on the theme. Happy weekend.

I love those photos of Sugar Bear by the creek. Refreshing to look at.
Lovely picture nice entry for the theme as..Truly kids make brighter day each day...see my entry..
what a great set of shots. i love the outfit, too. but what i loved best was the thrower came over and put his head on my shoulder and looked at them too. he loved them, and i kept saying "there's sugar bear" at each one. then the last one? he said "that's the thrower." i said no, it was sugar bear. he said "mommy no. the thrower"
Oh what absolutely adorable photos of little Sugar Bear!
Happy Weekend.
She looks as an extremely busy and serious person in these shots, super cute!

"It is usually fairly cool and breezy where we live" - I am SO jealous!!!!
Bright sunshine is such a photograpic challenge. But you did well. Hard to miss with such a cute model. ;o) I love that little hat, and wish N could keep one on her head.

Those are great photos! And she is one adorable girl!
I love that picture of the sprinkler!
And, I love the new look!
What a beautiful day to spend outdoors. I just love the way you take Sugar's pictures. It reflects how much you love her.
I love how you've framed the photos Cor. They still pop but reading was easy too. Gorgeous. When I was little I longed for a stream at the bottom of my garden. What a wonderful place to grow up for you and Sugar. :D
Those are lovely photos of your lil one. That is sure a nice place to live. It looks so pretty relaxing.
Thanks for stopping by!
