These are my people. This is my life. I am so thankful. . I messed up this year and had our personal photo session on the calendar for the wrong day (insert face palm here)! While I'm waiting to reschedule, we did a few tripod timer selfies. I kind of love them. . . . #candidchildhood #fernandinaphotographer #adventurefamily #travelfamily #momtog #documentyourdays #documentary #lifestyle #homeiswhereverimwithyou #thesincerestoryteller #thedocumentarymovement #subjectlight #igersjax
I love the clean slate of a new year...I love writing and thinking and planning for what’s to come, reflecting on what has been, and overall just re-centering my mind. I love feeling like things are fresh and new. A new month, a new year, a new perspective, and a new one word (coming soon). Today, we’re doing that on the beach, and so many thoughts and feelings are swirling through my head. 2018 was both incredibly difficult for our family, and also full of incredible blessings. . We sold our boat and became land lubbers again (with all the bittersweet feels), built a beautiful home, Andrew changed jobs after being with his company for nearly a decade (in the middle of our build process, no less), the boys joined new a homeschool co-op and got back to the soccer pitch, I grew a new business and unexpectedly made some of the best friends a girl could ask for, we started attending a new church, began plugging into a new community, we hosted beach cleanups, spent countless days by the ocean...so many things happened. Everything all year felt new and different...not so much in an adventurous way, but like every aspect of our lives got turned upside down. Every year I used to make grand plans for the new year, but I think I’m slowly learning to just trust in the Lord and all He has for us. A year ago I didn’t see most of this coming, and a year before that I certainly didn’t anticipate all the joy and fear and adventure we found in boat life. In fact, there has never been a year where my plans fully came to fruition or where I wasn’t surprised by something that happened. So today, as I watch the waves roll in and the boys play, I’m still setting goals and making plans, but remembering that the Lord brings each wave to the shore and tells it exactly how much sand to churn and then tells it where to stop. There is a greater rhythm. Here’s to seeking that and all the adventure we can stand in this new year. . . . #travelfamily #adventurefamily #florida #candidchildhood #childhoodunplugged #wildandfree #fernandina #documentyourdays #lifestyle #904 #igersjax #ameliaisland #newyear #myoneword

The week between Christmas and New Years is always my favorite time of the year. We all have time off together...no work, no school, no anything. We call it going into “The Bubble”. There’s time to just explore and adventure and be together, time to snuggle and read and write and reflect...time to do absolutely nothing or anything we please. It’s like coming up for a breath of fresh air. It is all the things my heart loves, with my people. . Do you have a favorite time of year? How about new year traditions? I want to know all about it/them... . . . . #fernandina #ameliaisland #jax #904 #igersjax #florida #floridalife #wildandfree #optoutside #bornwild #travelfamily #adventurefamily
I failed at Christmas cards this year, and also at taking even a family photo at all on Christmas. I hope you all had a magical day filled with love and joy! These cuties sure did. I promise I’ll get back to card sending next year! 💙
Santa showed up tonight and read a story to the boys. It was magical.
So much love and laughter. . . . . #thesincerestoryteller #documentyourdays #documentaryphotographer #lifestyle #fernandina #igersjax #fernandinaphotographer #meredithrowephotography #candid #fernandinabeach
Happy Birthday, @jandrewrowe! I don’t know how I got so lucky that I get to do this life with you, and not a day goes by that I’m not thankful. You’re my better half, my best friend, and my favorite everything. You make my days better, and you make me better. Also, you’re the SEXIEST 40 year old I’ve ever met. I love you, and all of your pieces.
