Mrs. Hannah Hamill
Hannah, the younger sister of my longtime friend Phoebe continued the family’s alliteration tradition (ok, so it’s just 2 of her 3 sisters who have) when she married Robbie Hamill this past Saturday. Whatever their last name, the newlyweds were well-celebrated with a lively evening reception. The bride was, of course, beautiful. They had a...

Out of Town Guest = Reason to eat dessert
Claim Jumper’s ‘Motherlode’ cake was right up Anne’s chocolate-lovin’ alley. I had the Chocolate Chip Calzone (DELISH, if you never tried it). I’ve eaten more dessert in the last 1.5 weeks than I have in months! It’s been fun, I must say.
Aaron Burr
I was reminded of this commercial this morning when I took too big a bite of my peanut butter bread and then the phone rang, prompting me to scramble to chew and swallow before the caller hung up. (NOTE TO SELF: When in charge of answering the phones at the office, take small bites of...
To my fellow girlie photogs…
We should be THIS awesome. Seriously. I don’t know that we could ever be as cool, but I think we should try someday.
Back to Work Day
The vacation had to come to an end sooner or later, though it always seems to come ‘sooner’ rather than ‘later’. It was back to work for me yesterday, while Anne spent the day lounging and walking around Old Town Monrovia after we met up for lunch. After eating out so much on the road,...
Road Trip Revovery: Beach Day
It was originally planned to spend Thursday through Tuesday on our road trip, but as anyone can attest, you almost always need a vacation from a vacation. Even a single day helps you regroup and prepare to head back to work. So we decided to cut the road trip short a day and spend Tuesday...
Road Trip with Anne: Day 5
Only a handful of photos were taken of the drive from Flagstaff back home to LA, of which only 2 remain for the day. Anne tried to use my camera to take a photo of the (fast) approaching “Welcome to California” sign as we crossed the AZ/CA border, but was frustrated to discover that all...
Road Trip with Anne: Day 4
It was nice to not have to pack our things and check-out of our hotel. Instead, we could linger in bed, have a late Sunday breakfast and then head south of Flagstaff to Sedona and the Red Rocks. Along route 89A to Sedona we pulled over to see the view and browse the booths selling...
