capture2011 :: no. 224 :: 11.12.11 :: breakfast with beth
have you ever eaten here? it was kind of a fancy breakfast. which is why i think beth and i both might have preferred our old standby, perkins. :)
a night on the town

some friends couldn't use their tickets to the saint paul chamber orchestra for last night, so they generously offered them to us. it was a smaller group of musicians (is that what a concerto is? i have no idea), but there was a harpsichord, violins, violas, a "violino piccolo" (new to me), cellos, and a bass. some songs included flutes, oboes, a bassoon, and french horns. the music was really lovely. the concert was fun, but i think we realized that we are not very cultured. i like action movies. a lot.
p.s. new bond for fall 2012? yeeehaaaw!
capture2011 :: no. 223 :: 11.11.2011 :: gussied up and making faces
i think we (i) also realized that we are not as young as we used to be. we dressed up a bit and intended to go out for dessert afterward. but after the show ended at the late hour of 10pm, we opted to get our caffe latte to go. i know i at least was too tired to stay out late. actually, half my dessert is still in the fridge, so i'm gonna go polish off that sucker. happy saturday! hope you are having a fun weekend!

a week off
hello, faithful blog readers!
here it is, sunday night, and i haven't blogged any of my pictures from last week. it was a busy one full of good things. here are just a few of them.
capture2011 :: no. 216 :: 10.31.2011 :: our first halloween
well, our first halloween handing out candy at our not-so-new house. the last two years we've been at evening church. i'm rather back and forth about halloween, but i decided to hand out candy in an effort to meet the neighborhood kids. i tried to buy candy that wouldn't tempt me too much, but as you can see above, we pretty much ate all the dots before the night even started. :)
capture2011 :: no. 217 :: 11.3.2011 :: afternoon walk
i've been doing a ton of reading research, so i went for a mid-afternoon walk to stretch my legs. again, experimenting with wide apertures, and realizing that leaves on the forest floor all become the same kind of purple-gray color. which i actually really like.
capture2011 :: no. 218 :: 11.4.2011 :: favorite things party
this weekend, my small group friend cindy and i hosted a favorite things party together. have you ever been to one? each guest brings five of a favorite thing (we went with items from $3 to $6), and through a method of drawing names each guest gives away their things and leaves with five new things brought by five different people. i brought bar keepers friend. seriously: run to menards (or williams-sonoma if you are fancy!) and pick up a can. it is my favorite favorite favorite cleaning supply. magic really.
capture2011 :: no. 219 :: 11.4.2011 :: keeping up
ben and i babysat hannah on friday night. she is so fun and busy and loves to move around a lot. baby sister's due date is just a few weeks away!
capture2011 :: no. 220 :: 11.4.2011 :: story time
just one big smile from me. so sweet.
