i am happy to be joining you again for another edition of 10 on 10. each month i join a group of photographers to share 10 photos (or more) from 10 hours (or more) on the 10th day of the month.
last thursday my husband received the news that he would be deployed for 45 days to the middle east on the following Monday. (ye, we had about three days notice). originally the plan for that weekend had been for my mom and i to go shopping and have a girl’s weekend away. my mom had made reservations at the gaylord palms in orlando and we were set to leave on saturday. ( in 8 years since we had our first child, i have not had a weekend away without the kids). after receiving the news, my mom was most gracious and gave us the hotel room to take the kids away for some fun. and even though it was a short night away and only 40 minutes from home..it was a great weekend of memories for our children. it really is a fun hotel to sneak off to for the night. we had a blast at the water park in the hotel, viewing the alligators, going out to dinner, and having room service desert and movie night in our room. it was just what we needed! i hope you enjoy…

What a sweet Momma you have, Ginger! I’m so glad you were able to enjoy some quality family time- no thanks to the Marine Corps
The last pic is my fave. All the patterns and colors and little ones waiting to go… love. Love you friend. Have a wonderful day!
ginger, how hard it must be. and how lovely a treat that your mom gave your family. these images melt me. the kids all together eating in bed…priceless. the sleeping pictures, the slides, the gorgeous light you always manage to capture. all as beautiful as you <3
Firstly I want to say what I always say when I have the chance to talk to a family in the military: Thank you!. I will be praying for all of you guys!.
Then, what a great mama!!! =)
As always, love your photography. How easy is to you to show your day in such a delicious way. Love your characterist edits, the emotions captured, the different perspectives. Beautiful tens Ginger!!!! <3
Ginger – What beautiful memories your children will have of this weekend to hold on to while your husband is away. I especially love the feet coming down the slide! I hope these next 45 days go by quickly for you! Just think how fast a month goes between our 10-on-10 posts! My thanks to your husband for serving our country.
Glorious light and love. What a perfect weekend getaway!
So sorry to hear that your husband has been sent away on such short notice, must have been hard on you
It must have been precious to have the time together with your family before he goes away, the photos are so much more meaningful knowing the context (but beautiful either way!!)
Ginger- what a beautiful day before your husband leaves. I admire your courage and strength to deal with the short notice! Your images are beautiful!
