Thanksgiving dinner came early but as always i am late

i get lucky every once in a while and several weeks before Thanksgiving Simple Me and i were invited to dinner at the home of a student from a couple of years ago

He now has a degree and a job but i best know him for coming back to visit during one of his vacations from college and greeting me with the line "I touched a Renoir." (such jealousy)

Here are the photos from the incredible dinner at his home
one of the best meals of my life
Thanks Alfred!

marriage???

Simply Me and i have been taking a look at marriage and making stuff related to marriage
Here are four photos i sent out for a friend who may show them at one of his event

white on white

the littlest crab claw had a project for his photo class this weekend (white on white) - so out we went to find the film and get it done. i could not resist the urge to pick up my phone and photograph right along with him. here are my results from his assignment and a couple off shots of little crabclaw and little diva.




cast party at fridays

one of the teenage crabclaws was in a show for the past two weekends - saturday was the cast party and i was picking up tacc around midnight. bored and waiting i took out the phone in hopes of making tacc more nervous and embarrassed so i could go home it took a short amount of time and photographing some odd things before he realized what was happening but as soon as he saw he knew it was time to get dad home before any real damage could occur to his prestine reputation. here are the photos.
