happy anniversary baby.....

picture this...
a day of celebration and
remembrance...
this is the atrium of the IDS
tower in minneapolis. it's only
50 stories tall.
i shot this on my way up to
rick & amanda's wedding reception
at windows in july.




today is our 8th anniversary.
we thought "911" would be a cool date,
one we would always remember, one
gary wouldn't forget, right?
well, turns out that some other folks
had other plans for that day...and
here we are 5 years later. wow.
still so painful.
it's still "our day". oh, and karen's too...
(happy birthday karen!)

i sat and watched MSNBC this morning
and watched as the day (5 years ago) unfolded.
it's really erie to sit and listen to what
everyone thought was going on because
we now know so much about that day
and what was involved from every aspect.

tonight, gary and i are planning a simple
celebration. gary is picking up ribs from
redstone in eden prairie and some wine
and we will stay in and watch the Viking's
season opener on monday night football.
what more could you want on an 8th anniversary?!

but before that i have a last minute senior
portrait to shoot this afternoon.
my sister's good friend jenny's son is
graduating from chaska and needs a portrait.

the high today...like 60 i think..yuck!!!
cloudy drizzley. should clear up tomorrow.

thanks for the beautiful card Dean & Lois!!
