I am back home.
Where May means daffodils and bluebells.
I miss this soft grass.
I miss dandelions.
And spring that feels like a new beginning rather than a slight shift in constant.
We’ve seen old friends.
And slept five to a bed last night, with bodies of cousins overlapped like a nice lattice crust.
My heart is full. This house is full of cousins and aunts and my grandma who made us promise when she went to bed last night that we wouldn’t have any fun because she didn’t want to miss it.
My mama’s getting married today. It’s a good day.
More to come from the Great Lake State.
love all the flowers and green!!!
Beautiful pictures. That grass does look so soft. 🙂 Have fun at the wedding!
I think there is something so wonderful about someone finding love again, later in her lives, after raising her family. Best wishes to your mom. I’m sure the ceremony and their lives together will both be beautiful.
Oh! Here’s wishes for a most beautiful, love-filled wedding day! I’m headed to my baby shower today….how bout that!! Ahhh!!!!! Cannot wait to see wedding pics! xoxo
Mazel Tov- to your mom! Have a great day!
As usual, beautiful pictures! I hope you have a wonderful day!
–Maggie
Beautiful photos 🙂
I hope everyone has a great day and lots of love to your Mum & new Step-Dad xxx
i loooooooove so much you and your girls
I love the pic of you nursing nella- so sweet 🙂 She is standing so well- is she starting to cruise around small areas? Like if she stands at a coffee table and y’all put cheerios on the other side will she try to shimme to them or just drop, crawl, and get her snack?? Have fun at the wedding!
Congrats to your mom and her new love! I hope they are happy for many, many years to come. Growing up in IL and then moving to Seattle leave me missing those wonderful fringe seasons. A slight change in the constant…beautiful way to write that.
Anywa, celebrate today!
I have to agree with Taylor above. I love the pic of you nursing Nella. My son is now 4, but I nursed him until he chose to wean himself at 3. We are now expecting baby #2, and I can’t wait to resume the grass time nursing sessions.
Congrats to your beautiful Mama on her wedding!
I live here in MI and am so happy your mama is getting married on such a BEAUTIFUL day!!! Enjoy, it has been a LONG crappy winter! lol
Cheryl in MI
Hope you have fun!
Where in Michigan are you guys from? We are in Livingston County!
Love all the pictures. Wishing your Mom and her new husband much happiness and many good years to come….
Congratulations to your mom! I know from experience how awesome it is to see your parents find happiness. I cannot wait to see the wedding pictures! Have a beautiful day!
The grass look AMAZING! Have a great great wedding! xx
Great lakes, great times! Glad to see you are back “home.” Isn’t it funny how we have our own homes, but wherever our parents are is also home…I love that 🙂 Happy Mother’s Day!
Enjoy the wedding!
It looks like the weather is holding out for you today. It’s a beautiful day here in Michigan!
What a wonderful day today is!! Enjoy every moment of home, soak in all its goodness, and Happy early Mother’s Day!
Ahhhh!! You’re in Michigan!!!!!!!!!!!!
🙂 🙂 🙂
Congratulations to your Mom and George!!!
**Pure Michigan baby**
I am over on the west side of the state and spring got off to a sputtering start but is finally in full swing! Leaves budding, flowers pushing up…LOVE IT!
Gorgeous day for a wedding. Wishes and prayers for much happiness for your mom and her hubby!
I’m so excited to see the wedding pictures! So happy for your mom.
Have a beautiful day — can’t wait to see pictures.. Cheers to Mama!
Thanks again for sharing everything you do. I love your blog, your photos and your words. I can’t wait for every new post and I so enjoy your positive perspective on things. Thanks for being an inspiration!
congrats to yo mama 🙂 have a great time at home.
OH MY. I thought your Florida pictures were heavenly. This is like seventh heaven. And how much cuter can your little girlies get?? LOVE the striped tights!!!! Happy wedding weekend to your family!
Happy day!! Your girls are so beautiful, I think that every time I read your blog. And I so want your photo taking skills!!
Michigan is a nice state, isn’t it? I am so glad not to be there in the winter though. Their spring is nice though. And Lake Mackinac…be still my heart. That place is divine.
Congratulations to your mama! Beautiful pictures! Have a wonderful day:-)
Congrats to your Mama, I can’t wait to see the pics of “their day”. Hope you have a Happy Mama’s Day! I love that last pic of you and your girls.
* what hair products do you use? your hair looks A-mazing 🙂
Enjoy your time at home. It’s beautiful here in Ontario today… hope it’s just as beautiful where you are! Love all the pictures, but especially the one of you nursing Nella in the grass with your shoes tossed carelessly to the side.
Aww, great photos. Looks like spring is in full swing there.
As always your pictures are just wonderful, I love third.kn obed of you holding nella in the air. You amd your girls share such an amazing bond, and you can tell by the constant smiles on their faces and the glow they put off. Your truly. An incredible mother i can’t wait to see more

Such beautiful pictures! Congratulations to your mama! Can’t wait to see the pictures.
And yes, there is no place like home! I’m going home for six weeks myself this summer!! Have a great time!!
Oh my goodness how happy you all look!
Lovely seeing pics from another part of your country, it look’s a little like my country!
🙂
Wonderful photos of what really seems like wonderful times.
Have a super weekend!
o, i’m having a sympathetic reaction to the barefeet on that velvet grass. has my toes scrunching and stretching for bendy blades of glorious green.
you and your babes are natural beauties who appear at ease no matter where you wonder. New York, Montana, Michigan, Utah. Florida might be where the roots are widening deep, but clearly home is well within the soul of your collective togetherness.
Mother’s Day weekend seems an appropriate time for your mama to begin a new chapter in her journey. may it be a divine day for all.
big love.
To: Your MaMa & Her Honey,
May the honeymoon never end…
Congratulations!!
Happy Weekend! Enjoy!!
We gotta hang out some time and take pics together;0. I swear we’d have a great time!! lol. You always inspire me to get more creative, to capture more of the little things and to enjoy it all every step of the way. Love the barn pictures and even the nursing pic…I was always to chicken to post any but, I think they are so serene…I should probably do that before my baby is totally done nursing.;0. Happy Saturday!
Going “home” is bittersweet, isn’t it?
I recently returned home to Colorado with my kiddos.
There was so much from my childhood (really, the first 30 years of my life) that I wanted to share with them, but I also know that they will never feel the same about these places and people as I do.
In the end, returning to OUR home in Oregon felt wonderful. It was fun to share Colorado with my kiddos, but home is Oregon for me!
Congratulations to your Mama!
Love this. So excited for your mama! Your home is BEAUTIFUL!
Congrats to your Mom and George
Have a fantastic time with your family
glad your trip home is going great! enjoy the family time 🙂
congrats to your mom!
I’m so happy you are home. Your photos made me smile for you and the chicas! I love going home to South Dakota! Congratulations to your momma:)
Congratulations to the happy, beautiful couple! Looks like a perfect Spring day for a wedding! Happy Mother’s Day to you and your mama! Yay for celebrating these special occasions together! Much love to you and your family!
Wow, congrats to your mom! It’s beautiful that she’s found love again 🙂
We’re right next door in Chicago, and it is an amazing time of the year in deed! I can’t get enough of everything blooming all around me–grand! isn’t it?
All the best to your mama!
PS I love Lainey’s outfit!
Much LOVE, Karolina
Watching your mom get married and having cousins for your kids to play with. A perfect combination…enjoy! susan
Beautiful pics! Congrats Kelle’s Mom xxx
Beautiful pics! I can feel the happiness in them.
I’m living true spring through your pictures! I was born and raised in Grand Rapids, MI and have been transplanted to Florida as well. I SO miss soft grass!
Having been born in Michigan and relocated to Florida, I understand how you feel going home. I laughed out loud when I read, “I miss this soft grass” because I get it! My first trip back home (after moving) was in the fall and I craved the smell of cider mills, frying donuts, and the beautiful colors of falling leaves. It was a painful adjustment that first fall. …but we have adjusted beautifully.
P.S. SO excited for your mom and wishing her a beautiful wedding day.
Welcome back home! You came at the best time! I’m in Canton and I’d love to see you and the kids – even though you don’t know me. LOL. Where in Michigan are you?
Congratulations to your mom on today! “My mama’s getting married today.” Loved it…brought tears to my eyes! I can’t wait to see pictures. And I agree with everyone else…you nursing Nella is a very sweet pic indeed! Much love and happiness to the new couple!
you have now lived in two gorg-E-o-so places!! Loved these pictures.
Congrats to your mom! 🙂
I live in the midwest and in the middle of winter, I read your blog wishing I lived where you do. But when Spring comes, I welcome the flowering trees, the rain (although we have had a bit too much this year) and all that Spring offers.
Welcome home!
I’m so bummed, we are an hour away!
STRIPED TIGHTS!!! Love them! 🙂
beautifuL!
where in MI are you from?
I am from Ontonagon in the U.P.!
tara
Oy! Your pictures sure make me homesick. I grew up in Ann Arbor, but since leaving home and getting married, my parents and all my siblings have moved away. I think I need to make an effort to get back there… show my girls what midwest life is all about! I hope you have a wonderful stay and that the wedding goes off without a hitch. I can’t wait to see more pictures and I’ll try not to get teary as they make me a little homesick.
Oh kelle, you are making me antsy for my own trip home this 4th of July. My toes tingle looking at that soft Michigan grass
What beautiful photography! Love that last shot. 🙂 Have fun!
Oh kelle….what more can I say but this: I understand.
I come from a Northern State. I am far from home. How I miss it, deep down in the marrow of my bones.
Your photos and simple words are achingly beautiful and bursting with joy. Congratulations to you and your momma and your whole family!

Congratulations to your mama. It’s wonderfully romantic, the way she’s fallen in love with her daughters and granddaughters there to see the ceremony…
And I love how Lainey & Nella have matching stripey legs! So cute.
Exciting! Congratulations to your Mom!
Welcome back to Michigan! Love the photos at Meadowbrook (I hope that doesn’t seem too stalkerish – my sister got married there a few years ago and I recognize all the lovely scenery!). I hope your mom has an amazing wedding and you enjoy all your time back in the Mitten!
Looks like a great day for a wedding:0) All the best to your Momma!
Congratulations to your Mom, wishing her many, many happy years to come!
Blessings on your mama’s special day!
I just had to tell you that when I opened my browser this morning (with all the tabs I had open yesterday) the tunes on your blog started playing as well as the Gregorian chant channel on Pandora that I was listening to yesterday while doing homework and I must say that Om Nashi Me and Gregorian chants go together surprisingly well like some new funky remix 😉
Cheers!
Chelsie
And the weather just happens to be a.m.a.z.i.n.g. in MI today too! Nice! Enjoy the day!
Beautiful and Refreshing!!!
New beginnings…. 🙂
Enjoy!
🙂
Looks beautiful.
Congrats to your Mama and your family. 🙂
How appropriate to be married in spring… The season of new beginnings!
I wish them a lifetime of great beginnings, with everyday made new!
Welcome home! I’m “next door” in Wisconsin and let me tell you, you timed your trip JUST right. Last week was snowy, but this weekend is pure midwestern May perfection.
Enjoy and congrats to your mama.
OH! And the soft grass! What I missed most about the ol’ midwest when I was living in Texas was the carpety grass. Even if we only see it, like, 2 months a year … it’s still better than that thick tough stuff down south.
Congrats and best wishes!! Enjoy the day =)
~Beth
It becomes so evident through your pictures why you would miss your Home in the Great Lake State…it’s absolutely enchanting!! LOVE your photos Kelle…you continue to inspire me to grow as a photographer.
All the best to your Mama and her new love. How very exciting for you and your family. Happy, happy times to you all!!
Looking forward to your next post…it will be over-flowing of happiness and love 🙂
Monique
LOVE! It is a beautiful Michigan day today 🙂 I’ve been outside taking pictures and enjoying the warm sun on my skin. Have a great time at home, congrats to your mom!
OH, HAPPY DAY!!! Congrats and best wishes for happpiness to the bride and groom, Kelle. I feel like I know your mom, after all this time, via your blog. I dont know how long she had been divorced, on her own, but I am just so happy for her. We all deserve happiness and to have someone to share Life with, that special person. Love to all..
The North Country & Midwest is the best this time of year! Enjoy being home!
Sounds like a weekend full of beautiful! Soak it all in, and enjoy every moment 🙂
I love this post. I cannot wait to see my home again soon.
Congrats to your mom and her new beginning at love.
Enjoy the weekend!!!!!!
~CC
Such a happy, full-of-light post!
I love the picture of little Miss Nella – standing by herself, grinning and posing for the camera. The little girl loves the camera – and it loves her right back!
Wishing your Mom and her love much happiness today and always.
Rosemary
So pretty and so exciting! Lainey’s dress is to die for!
I *Love* the picture of you and Nella enjoying a “picnic lunch” in the grass! I think it’s my most favorite picture of you two so far! Thank you so much for sharing those pics, it’s still not common for Mamas to nurse past a year, and it’s a beautiful thing to see (and I speak from a Mama who never expected [before I had kids] to be nursing my 21mos old <3 )
Congrats to your mama, and to all of you for gaining a new family member. And I kinda love that Poppa is there. By “kinda,” I mean “reallyeffinglove.”
utterly beautiful pics! x
Great pictures like usual! You have such a beautiful family. Cograts to your mom on getting married!
Oh, and a weird question but i have to know this, I fricken love your hair, what kind of shampoo do you use? lol!
Congrats to your Mom!! How awesome she is getting married on Mothers Day weekend!! What a beautiful way to celebrate your Momma!!xo
Awwww! I LOVE that last picture! I hope I’m like you some day, Kelle. A mama, but still gorgeous and happy. Your babies are some of the cutest I’ve ever seen!
Wow. Just wow. =)
Welcome to our neck of the woods! Can’t wait to hear all about your Mama’s special day…not to mention see the pictures!
Best wishes to your mom! What a wonderful time for her and your entire family! Blessings to all.
(And I live in MN and it is a most beautiful time of the year, isn’t it? Well deserved, I must say, after a long winter)!
Oh GOODNESS! Wherever you are, it’s just beautiful! Perfect day for a wedding. I just told my husband, “Well, Kelle Hampton’s mom is getting married today (smile).” So happy to see this post this morning!
Happy Mother’s Day, indeed.
Kelly

Welcome home to Michigan! I’m in Ann Arbor, not sure where you guys are. But the weather was beautiful today until almost 4 PM, so I’m hoping you guys had good weather for the wedding. Best wishes to your mom, and Happy Mother’s Day to you!
Welcome home! Seriously, your mom and George got the most amazing day to get married. It’s been pretty lame here weather-wise lately and today it’s perfect. Please tell her congratulations! We got to have Evan’s photoshoot this morning for our local Ds group calendar they do every year. I love having him in it and it was just perfect outside. Hugs to you guys and Happy Mother’s Day!!
I don’t know where you are, but the architecture is SO gorgeous!! Can’t wait to see the wedding pics…it’s such a happy thing…happy for all of you…soak it up! All of it.
Best wishes to your mom for a wonderful, joyous wedding day today. Love the last photo of you, Nella and Lainey – your girls look just like you. 🙂
Congratulations Kelle’s Mama! Happy wishes of love and laughter shared with your husband.
Absolutly love the pictures of the girls by the barn…btw MI looks a lot more “springlike” than WI
I miss the ‘soft’ grass too. The southern grass just isn’t the same. Looks beautiful & the pics are fab.
Your mamma picked the *perfect* weekend in May here in Michigan to get married!! The weather across the state is going to be picture perfect!! So glad this beautiful weather finally arrived here to give her the perfect wedding!!!
Welcome back home!!! And thanks for bringing that Florida sun to Michigan! We appreciate it!!! :0)
We are neighbours for a minute!! Love that the girls laughter and smiles so precious!! Have tons of fun while you are at home!!

It’s a great weekend to be back in Michigan! Enjoy! Karen

Beautiful Michigan, isn’t it? We just started the tulip celebration on our side! Congratulations to your mama! What a great mother’s day for you all!

Your hair is so shiny 🙂
Yes, spring there is different but not less than Florida… How fun to have a mother’s day weekend wedding.. and your mom… of all people… Happy Mother’s Day Kelle
Lovely photos, especially love the one of you feeding – fond memories of feeding my own daughter at this age – one of the great joys of being a mother. Happy mothers day
Congrats to your momma!! Have a great time with your family!!
So beautiful!!!
I think this is my favorite post of yours so far! all the colours and the smiles. Beautiful photos.:) Have fun at home and happy mother’s day. You deserve a good one.
Cute!!! Love the picture with you and the girls!!!
To Molly- Agreed! I, too, LOVE tha Poppa Rik is at the wedding. And to Kelly Cach- ME< too! I told MY hubby OH today is the day – Kelle’s Mama’s getting married!!” He laughs, cuz I act like Kelle and I are best friends and we never met. heehee…
Your nursing picture made me tear up 🙂 So beautiful. Still nursing my 12mo old, and it’s so nice to see I’m not alone 🙂 xoxo
Kelle,
I love the way you blog through life. Every little bit of it — in photos! As a photographer, it is such a joy to read your blog not only for the inspiration to be a better mom, but to document my family as well as my client’s lives!
What I would give to just spend a day as a fly on your wall learning how you capture the moments in such vivid splendor!!
Thanks for your amazing blog!

Welcome “home!” 🙂
I love LOVE. I love seeing Poppa there with you; I love that you’re
surrounded by family & friends; I love that Grandma Krissy found George. Such happiness all around.
Best wishes to all.
P.S HEIDI~HOW COULD YOU NOT BE THERE?? YOU’RE THE REASON K & G
MET IN THE FIRST PLACE!! I’M CRYING FOR YOU 🙁
Wow, this post made me miss “home!” I grew up 22 years in MI, married a Navy pilot, and now am living across the world in Japan. I can’t wait to experience those things again!!!
Oh….Meadowbrook Hall. Tell me you took Lainey to see Knoll Cottage in the woods? It’s just her size! Welcome home – we rolled out the nice weather just for you!
Judy in MI
Congratulations to your mom!!!!
Oh how I miss my Michigan:( I grew up on the West Side near Lake Michigan and Lord how my heart yearns to smell the lake water in the air and have the sand between my toes. Why I left this wonderful state you may ask? Love! I married my husband and he brought me to the South.
That’s what I was going to tell you when you blogged about you mom and fiance… my husband and I met through eHarmony too with many mutual family friends once we started talking. He is one year older than I and we grew up 20 miles from eachother, our high schools played against eachother in sports and we attended the same college for a year. Weird how its only meant to be when the timing is right! God is so good. Hope you have a great weekend at the wedding and celebrating with your family!
~YAY~ Welcome back to Michigan! We’ll be up in Holland tomorrow with the Mom’s in law. Enjoy your weekend!
If everyone got together and didn’t let me know I’m gonna be HOT! Your so close!! Miss you!
Thanks for bringing some sunshine back to Michigan! This is the best weekend we’ve had in a long time! Enjoy your stay with your family and friends!
Yes, it was a gorgeous day in my Michigan (Livonia area) – LOVE the picture of Nella by the brick wall! Enjoy your Mother’s Day!
Leaving East Landing after 11 years last year, I wish I was Along for the day. Happy Day to you all. Much love and marriage blessings.
JUst wanted to say that I so love that you are still breastfeeding Nella. I breastfed all 3 of my kiddies till they were 2 years old and it is so nice to see images of Mummas feeding little ones. It makes a difference for all mums out there , knowing it is still normal to feed past 6 months. Yay for you and the beautiful mum that you are. xxx Its mothers day here in Australia, so big happy mothers day to you.
omg. how do you stand all the beauty in your life?!
LOVE,LOVE, LOVE all the beautiful pics.
Congrats to your mom, and Happy Mother’s day! Gorgeous pics, as ALWAYS.
Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous!
I’m loving the colours & greenery! And as usual, your girls outfits make me smile 🙂
I was just blogging about Seasons yesterday 🙂 I wish our shift in seasons were more dramatic, but here in QLD Australia, they all seem to merge together.
Enjoy the wedding! MAGIC!
xo
Love the picture of you nursing in the grass. Your girls are beautiful! Happy Mother’s Day.
Congratulations to your mom! I hope it was a beautiful day.
Oh girl. I’m so jealous of your flat tummy in the pic of you & Nella laying in the grass!
So beautiful! The colors are so vivid! And GO NELLA for standing so well and so proudly!!! Can’t wait to hear more about this trip!
All so lovely. Wishing for a pair of the maryjanes in my size!!
Some Day maybe we can meet:) It was a beautiful Day in Michigan today. LOVEEEE the last picture. You all look so beautiful
As a fellow native Michigander, thanks for the pictures of home! I too am far from the daffodils, bluebells, soft grass and dandelions. So nice to see them again! Best wishes to the bride and groom!
I miss my “home” in MI too…the changing of seasons in TX just isn’t the same either. LOVE the picture of Nella by the brick wall! Happy Mother’s Day!
These may be my favorite photos of yours ever – love the lush green, Lainey’s sweet dress, the architecture – all so beautiful! I can just imagine the wedding was quite lovely!
I love your pics, especially the ones of you nursing out in the world, like it’s normal – becsuse IT IS! Thank you for being brave and NIP and taking pics of the special bond you have with your baby Nella.
Congrats to your mom.
Happy Mother’s Day!
Cheers to your mom and George! Looks like it is a beautiful weekend there!
-Jill B (Overland Park, KS)
I love the north too! I grew up in Wisconsin & having been living in the south for almost 4 years… hopefully will be getting out soon! SO different and not home and I miss having actual seasons! 🙂 Happy Wedding Day to your mum! Beautiful photos 🙂 xxoo
Congrats to you mom! Everyone deserves love and happiness! I also understand the love and longing for green, soft grass and dandelions! My husband and I have lived in AZ for 6 years now after being born and raised in Ohio. We just got back from a visit and I ‘sucked that marrow’!! Glad you’re enjoying your trip!
Best Wishes for a long & happy marriage to your Mom & her husband! So exciting!!
Oh how your post makes me long for my home back in the Midwest! If only it were warm enough for lightning bugs too…enjoy 🙂

I hope more people will find the link to your blog and draw strength from it, just like how I had.
Last but not least, Happy Mother’s Day!
Happy Mothers Day! Big Hugs!!
Don’t you just love spring? Blue bells. Lilacs. And now Peonies are just starting to pop.
Happy Mother’s Day. Here’s wishing your Mom a wonderful new life with her new husband.

Beautiful! Happy Mother’s Day to one of my favorite Mommys in the world. Wish I could meet you while you are here! I am sure my Chloe would love to meet Nella and Lainey! Looking at your pictures and listening to the blog music always makes Chloe smile and dance! The weather has been beautiful here, enjoy your visit!

I live in Michigan and couldn’t help but think of your family yesterday. I’ve become so addicted to your pictures and your words I actually looked outside and said “oh, good, it’s a gorgeous day for Kelle’s mom’s wedding.”
I hope she had an amazing wedding. 🙂
oh gosh, the colour in these photos is stunning! I cannot wait to see weddings pics!
Hi there! I’m not sure how I stumbled upon your blog, but I did and I’m so thankful. I settled in on a rainy day and started going backwards. 2.5 hours later, I realized I needed dinner! 🙂
Bluebells! Love them! I’m from England and they are my fave! I live in Texas now and we have Bluebonnets here and whilst pretty, they are just not the same. Hope you’ve had a fabulous weekend. Looking forward to the tales 🙂
Thank you for sharing your gift of capturing memories with us! Looking at your photos inspires me to try to capture more memories with my family and to remind my husband and older kids to snap pictures of me once in awhile, too. Love, love, love the picture of you nursing Nella. It brings back fond memories of me nursing my kids.
I love the photo of you nursing Nella in the grass. It is just beautiful.
Are your girls always dressed like that? Or is it a photo shoot thing?
I am so thankful you came this weekend, because I’m certain you brought the Sunshine to us here in MI. What a beautiful Mother’s Day and a beautiful weekend for your mom’s wedding. She looks absolutely stunning. And the pic of Nella by the brick wall – LOVE it! How sweet that you had 4 generations to attend the beautiful ceremony. Such a rare occasion!
welcome home! thanks for bringing some nice weather up with you from florida!
my heart is happy for you…ps: you can come to my house and have all the dandilions you want!
You look so much like your mom!! Looks like a wonderful trip and a great way to spend Mother’s Day weekend. 🙂 Hope you are home safely now.
Nursing in a beautiful field. My favorite shot yet.
Congrats to your Mom! She looks so happy.
I LOVE the pic of you nursing Nella. I decided I must have a pic like that of me nursing my son. Beautiful.
Where did you get Lainey’s adorable dress???
