one down, one hundred to go…ok, maybe 60
that evening, she took me out for a surprise anniversary date. we went to highland tap for the prime rib…..hadn’t been in quite a while – good stuff. then we went out to see 2012. it was predictably melodramatic and unreal, but i really love “end of the world” caliber cgi. we had a good date!
we also went over to piedmont park to do some self-portraits for our anniversary. we so rarely actually get our picture taken together, so we carried the tripod across the street to the park and went to town!
these are my favorite shots (and done as a movie, to boot). i always see other photographers do this sort of thing, but had never done it myself. we had fun!

it has been an amazing year. we’ve been a little busier than we intended and our work situations certainly added more stress than we would have liked. but we’ve made my condo our home and we’ve begun to build a life together. we got to have only a few adventures, but look forward to many more together. oh, and lillis gift to me was eyetv so i could watch tv on my macbook AND a filson field bag for my camera gear…….and the sweetest most supportive, enthusiastic and encouraging wife anyone could ever have….and as cousin eddie said “that’s the gift that keeps on givin’ the WHOLE year.”
oh, here’s the link to the rest of our anniversary photos.
