Loved The Lighting!

Who would believe that there was this in the middle of the DESERT?!!!

We had been hiking all morning in the desert and ended at the Oasis of Palm Trees in the middle of nowhere.  Well, actually not really in the middle of nowhere....i did see a sign that said 29 Palms was just down the road...but anyways, after hiking everyone was ready for lunch!  So we pulled out all the lunch stuff from our ice chests and made sandwiches for 17 hungry people who had just wandered the desert...on a horse with no name....ooops, wrong story, again, silly no named horse!  After lunch we opened up a ton of bubbles and had fun blowing bubbles everywhere!  Much better than last reunion where we had marshmellow wars with our super cool guns!  I mean the marshmellow war was more fun, but than we saw the sign after we had dispersed about 40 bags of mini marshmellows in our epic battles that read, please pack out everything you brought with you.  We decided to be more planet friendly this year and not give the wild life cavities or bring down their immune system with an onslaught of sugar!  After the bubble blowing tag i saw Ty and Carissa sitting on one of the palm trees.  I loved how the ligh was reflecting all over the place and hoped my camera could capture some of the beauty!  I took one without them knowing and than i had them pose for me and Ryan jumped in right when i went "click", but i love it and think it is hillarious, even if my camera didn't quite capture all the sparkles the sun light was bouncing all over the place!


Had fun brushing the outer part of the picture black and white




Love how Ryan jumped underneath it!  Just wish my camera could have captured all the sparkles, well, probably just dust particles in the air!
