Grandpa's Pond

There are so many wonderful memories and images that we hold in our hearts everytime we meet at the fish pond with Brian's family. Usually, I spend most of my time taking pictures of people. This time, I decided to be intentional about capturing the images of our surroundings.


If you look closely, you can see the archway and read "Grandpa and Grandma's Pond"
I know the long winding road back to the pond provokes all kinds of fond childhood memories for Brian, and my hope is that one day, it will do the same thing for our children as well.

The house is decorated with all kinds of special family memorabilia.

Of course, no trip to the fish pond would be complete without a few attempts at skipping rocks and learning to braid with pine straw.
