happy birthday + balloons, again


The lovely gal wearing the red-hot pants in this photo is, I think, celebrating her birthday today. Lori, thank you for years of fun memories, good laughs, fashion inspiration, thought-provoking discussion, warm company and fine baked goods. And also for being our ever-so-fabulous model. Go tell Lori happy, happy, if you haven't already. Her blog is way fun to read. (For example, she named her site after a line from Megadeth.)

The photo came from the balloon shoot I organized last spring (see here and here). Participants included myself and

Lori,
Lacey,
Marta,
Brad, and
Allison.

Lacey and I are planning on holding another one soon, so stay posted. We would love for you to join us. In the meantime, check out the balloon pool, if you so desire. It seems appropriate for this little star's birthday.

I kinda think I wanna join this! It would be a blast, and I'd like to be a part of a "real" photo shoot instead of always wandering around by myself like a dummy.

You and your photo skills should join the World Clock Project (see my latest post). I already stole the city/county building, but I bet you could find some other rad clocks in SLC!

Ali you were right on Lori's Birthday, I don't know why my post says Monday because I did it Tuesday morning so don't feel bad! You were right. Maybe because I started it monday night? I don't know??!!

Ali, you are my favorite balloon photographer.
Thanks for the Birthday wishes, I had a great day. I sure do miss you and can't wait to catch up.
