picture not-so-perfect beach pictures

Sand. Sunset. Beautiful ocean. Precious matching boys. 

The perfect beach pictures. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has this idea in their head of smiling, cooperative, happy kids on the beach. You know, kids who sit still and actually smile at a camera without being bribed with starbursts. Do those kids even exist?!

You know the pictures I'm speaking of:

 SO, I have all these images in my head of my adorable boys sitting on the beach in the sweetest matching Kelly's Kids outfits that I have had for over a year. These pictures will be perfect.

Famous last words. 













and my favorite...


I probably won't find these pictures on Pinterest & they certainly aren't what I had in mind as "perfect." But they are our kind of perfect because they show off some fun personalities & they are real. Real {and funny} pictures of our sweet boys!

I was almost in tears trying to take our beach photos. K turns her head the other way when the camera is out and my husband complains the whole time. Ha!

Hilarious! I can't tell you how many pictures I've attempted after seeing them on Pnterest that ended up being big fat failures! But some of the candid-ness is perfect :)

Oh those are too funny! Love them!

I have the same ideas when taking photos of Connor. Dang Pinterest sets the bar a little too high for my liking.

Regardless, your boys are dolls. I love their smiling faces and all the blonde.

See? The reason I love your blog: you are REAL! Those boys are precious, even if their pictures aren't gonna make Pinterest. :)
