News of our impending move made me realize just how awful I've been at documenting our more regular activities here in Southern California, like our daily walks around the park, last summer's block parties, Saturday tennis matches, or dinners with friends. You just don't think about whipping out a camera when it's so typical, you know? That's one thing I really regretted from our time in Colorado. We spent nearly every Friday night for 2.5 years at Anthony's house and have maybe ten photos to show for it, and that's a bummer.
So this weekend, even though we just laid low with some spring cleaning and a night at the Moores, I made sure to whip out the camera because we really want to remember those simple good times. With Duane and Kaley, that is -- not the Clorox. Our night consisted of homemade pizza, fancy soda, cookies and ice cream, Settlers of Catan, and hours of conversation. The girls talked about important things like nursery decorations (they're having a girl in June!) while the boys talked about nerdy things like engineering. You know how it goes.
It's so true, I need to be better about documenting the everyday. I don't feel like bringing a camera along when I'm just doing "regular" things, but these are the moments our lives are made up of! We will want to remember them.
ReplyDeleteI literally said outloud, "what is fancy soda" and there you have it, a photo. How sweet are you to post a picture of it.

Oh my, Shay. I can't even begin to tell you how terrified I am of winter! The cold and I do not get along.
