I think of her often … every Mother’s Day because we spent most of them together since her husband worked weekends … when I discover a new food adventure (we once did a day long donut crawl) … when I’m sharing a special time with my kids knowing that her then-11 year old is growing up without her.

December 30, 2012 · Narrative

This weekend was a wonderful mix of relaxation and mild productivity. Which means I have very few pictures, but know that it was awesome. Girl time with some of my favorite people, sushi, movie nights, and my little people dressed to the nines. Perfection.

Our first good snow of the season.

WPIR - bad sign-001
When the theater looks like this on a Saturday night, it’s not necessarily a good sign.

WPIR - poster
This is what we saw. Save your money, people.

WPIR - beauty

WPIR - free bread-001
Free bread from my favorite gas station attendant.

WPIR - GNO

WPIR - lazy-001
