Our beach pictures finally came in today - I made a new album with them.  I've told almost everyone that has seen them that getting Kevin to participate at first was like pulling teeth through his nose.  We were offered the shoot for free on the first day we were there as part of a promotional package, but I made the mistake of booking it 5 days out.  That was FIVE days of my sweet husband holding it over my head (i.e. bargaining:  "I'll do the shoot if we can spend 1 hour every day in Martin's Golf Superstore."); arguing over clothes despite instructions to wear something neutral ("We're at the beach, so why can't I wear my whale shorts for the shoot?");.. and then finally surprising me by looking as handsome as ever when it was time to go.  Not that I was surprised he looked handsome... I was just floored not to see whale shorts!

Once we were there, we (yes, both of us) had a great time.  Kevin saw a bird on his life-list that he had never seen before (a Piping Plover); we got a few great candid shots playing in the water (which unexpectedly RUSHED up on us and got our pants soaked); and some great "posed" shots in a place that is special to both us.  It will be a fun memory for years to come of our 2nd anniversary.

Here are some of my favorites:
