Pajamas on the beach

This collection of photographs is among my favorites. A few weeks ago, Joey and I drove the girls back home to California and camped on Laguna Beach for the night. I took these photos the morning as they were leaving. We woke up early (approximately 6 a.m early because I forgot to change the clocks to Cali time), but I wouldn't trade that extra hour of sleep for anything. Nothing beats seeing these little girls gather seashells on the misty beach with their father. It was melancholy and beautiful, and the perfect way to spend their last day together.
