Have a playful weekend.

My darlings, what are you doing this weekend? Hope you have a wonderful Fourth of July, and here are a few great posts from around the web...

What would you give to jump in this pool?

This bride's vintage dress is gorgeous.

Love these red shorts.

Cute title.

What a sweet post about first steps.

Vintage mamas (including the Queen of England).

Photoshopping a swimsuit model.

Wouldn't it be sweet to hang this welcome sign outside a front door?

Anna Bond's new recipe boxes.

One family, thirty years.

Notebook paper tee.

Lego kitchen!

Just Woody Allen making movies. Just Hemingway kicking a can.

There are wonderful people out there.

Scouting models in Brazil.

My hubs and I are having the most nontraditional 4th of July weekend: staying in, working on photos (him), reading/writing (me), and both of us watching old movies with shandies close at hand.

Much love to you and your little family!

I love jumping photos! I actually have readers send in their jumping photos and I post them every Friday. It's so fun to see people at their happiest. Some people never jump and they really need to.

JW said...

The red shorts are cute! And yes, the Hemmingways seem to have a habit of dying July 2 - which is my birthday of all days.

Sutton said...

Hi! I am moving to India this year to volunteer. I'm so so so excited about it and am going to be working in rural areas trying to provide basic services that we all take so much for granted. It is going to be an amazing trip and I'm fundraising for it right now!

If you spread the word you get a MOOD RING!

Pretty sweet eh? :)

Natural shots are the best. Seeing people in daily activities are the most captivating.

Tim Capaldi said...

Jo, love that pool and the house that goes along with it!

Shaz said...

Such beautiful natural shots! I like the first one where the man is so engaged in looking at the woman than in the actual act of jumping.
