I am really enjoying the longer afternoons and the summer-like weather we are experiencing this week. Mckenna requested the park after school on Tuesday. I sat on this blanket the entire time and soaked up the sunset as it washed over my incredible brood of four.
Then we went home and made basil curry chicken, broccoli (Anna calls it brock-LEE with the emPHASis on the wrong syllABle), and rice for dinner.
They only “mostly liked” the chicken.

Awesome Tara! Love the light. Which lens?
Sounds like a pretty perfect day. (and I want the recipe for that chicken!)
yes, please post the recipe! my middle son says baseMENT. . .that just cracks me up. i love it when you share your simple mommy moments!
Poor Drew! What happened to his arm?? :)
Lovely pictures! Thanks for sharing – they make me long for summer… :-)
oh how lovely. i want the recipe for the basil chicken curry. sounds yummy.
we are having some very unseasonably warm weather and sunshine for out part of the country.. and out in that sun as much as possible too.. I love these photos.
I am lOVING the weather we are having here too,
though I heard snow this weekend (chicago)…..
well spring should be here soon anyway.
LOVE these fun pix. Love nights like these.
and YUMMY dinner! My Savannah will eat a WHOLE
head of broccoli if roasted in the oven. You mix it
with salt, pepper and olive oil and roast at 375 for about
30-40 minutes and it’s soooooooo good! I do other veggies like
this as well. (asparagus, garlic, onion, peppers,
zucchini) Have a gREAT night!

Fabulous and creative indeed!
jealous.. that you have *green* grass. still thawing out here in vermont. beautiful work, as always :)
These have a dream-like quality to them:)
They are lovely.
Beautiful, honest and real. As always. :)
I feel that some of the best views are where we find ourselves just sitting and taking in those little things that our love ones do!
These are beautiful, Tara. Such a great documentation of your family at sunset. Wonderful, calming.
Hmmm. Pretty good view, I’d say.
I did the same thing with my little ones Tuesday. It was wonderful. ;)
Fabulous!! My crew is headed for the park tomorrow…73 and sun!! Can’t wait to soak it up!
oohhhh, nice. i think the last one is my favorite; makes me even more anxious for the season to “bring it”.
The third and fourth pictures, of your daughter on the swings, are just incredible! Such an amazing capture of everyday life.
I love the way you journal your life through your photography. It make me want to do the same. Thanks for sharing your talents.
Is that a broken arm I see? OH BOYS!! Isn’t it lovely to just sit and watch the kids play- especially when the sun is behind them and it makes them just glow. Lovely photos.
gorgeous!!! loving the weather!
i love your ‘views’ tara…LOVE THEM!
Loooooooove it!
Beautifully shot photos..!
I just love your work . . . I feel like we could walk right into the picture and hop on a swing or sit on the grass! I love the simple things. . . who’s the cutie rockin’ the boots! :))
See, making a basic OC park look magical? THAT’S talent. :)
What a view it is. So perfect.
thanks for the inspiration. i too, would take my brood of two (hardly a brood, eh) to the park and plan to snap photos from my spot on the grass. :D
