Marci and Dave {Engagement Session | Palace of the Fine Arts | Baker Beach}

We had a great session with Marci and Dave. I’m glad I got to tag along, but not so glad that I didn’t bring a jacket. It was freezing!

Marci and Dave were so fun to hang out with. You could tell that they have so much fun together. Can’t wait for their wedding next year!

Stinkin’ Edibles

It seems weekends off are few and far between lately, so when the Hatchers invited us out to the Garlic Festival, it was a welcomed invitation.

It’s been 3 years since our last visit, and boy has it changed since then. I think it’ll be a while before I voluntarily decide to drive in 3 hours of  T>R>A>F>F>I>C, walk in 110+ degree…shadeless weather, and spend $100+ on stinky edibles.

I’m old, because I’m about to say, it was so different when I was growing up. Much like when my father would hand me my $5 allowance and say,  when I was growing up, I got 5 cents and I had to share it with my 7 siblings.

I am grateful though for the awesome company, my $5 parasol, and Ella’s fairy wings. If only she could’ve flown me outta there towards airconditioning.

Wedding Prep

Before we leave for a wedding, I like to fill the gas tank up COMPLETELY.  Alfred, on the other hand, will look at the gauge and by some calculation—known to only him and every other male on the planet—determine our need for gas.

This is the same calculation used for questions like

“do we need to ask for directions?”
“do you
need me to bring all of your gear to the reception?”
“do you want me to write that down for you?”
“do you need the instruction manual?”

Because 95% of the time, his answer to these questions is No.
And, 85% of the time, it should have been Yes.

So, when I ask him, “shouldn’t we get gas?”

And he says, “no.”

I answer, “When the aliens invade, you’re gonna wish you had a full tank of gas.”
