we took the day off work on friday to take a little day trip to rockaway, new jersey with our families. we visited the buy buy baby store and then headed to the cheesecake factory for lunch! you can't go wrong with a visit to the cheesecake factory!
when we took the photos for our baby announcement we didn't have much time. it was early in the morning last saturday before we had to run to a different theatre to work two back-to-back shows of south pacific. we set up the camera on the tripod and used the timer feature to snap the photos. after we took the photos in our dress clothes, we threw on our theatre blacks. we snapped a few more photos and then flew out to work. when we sorted through the photos we had this outtake which we didn't end up using because our faces were so dark. but the more we stared at it, we liked it because it's so appropriate to have us dressed in our blacks and standing in the dark working on lights . . . that's what we do!

when you're being so darn cute and patient waiting for dad to get home from work . . .
. . . but then you get too tired from being so cute that you pass out for a nap!
this weekend ryan and i worked the national broadway tour of "south pacific" when it came to town. ryan worked the props department and i worked the wigs department which was a nice change for both of us to be doing something different.
it was a very long weekend with an extra long load in, a very long show (hello, 3 hours!), and an extra long load out. needless to say, we're extra tired today and moving a little slower than normal on a monday morning!
love, laurie
hello, friday! it will be a long work weekend for us, but since it's friday here are 40 one-liner jokes to keep us laughing.
love, laurie
when you're sooo tired, but you're still awake waiting for dad to come home from work.

i can't resist this guy and his cuddles, especially when it's extra cold outside!

it's march 1st today which means it's meteorological spring, although it doesn't quite feel like spring just yet. i'm very much looking forward to having the temperatures warm up. hopefully soon! in the meantime i'll look back at this old photo from several years ago of the flowers blooming in our yard and keep my fingers crossed for flowers in the near future!
love, laurie
