Today is Maia‘s 2nd Birthday! Happy Birthday, Maia, we love you so much!!
I’m still sometimes in shock as to how much she grew and how she doesn’t look like a puppy any more… but she still acts like one, though! :)
Let it swim
Unlike last year, I got to enjoy a whole day and night of Halloween this year! As you’ve seen Maia’s witch costume, it was fun to walk around with her — she was the most popular dog on the street!
Went to 7th Avenue Halloween Parade in Park Slope for a start. It was the safest and the most wholesome Halloween parade I’ve ever been to :) Filled with lots of kids and parents, it was fun.
Maia watching people go by.
I met Hine who was in town from Canada! So nice to meet you!!
Family Halloween photo (I was a hippie… Randy was ??):
and then, I went to Manhattan with my friends — it was crazy just as I imagined.
In front of Webster Hall. No way we could have gotten in… It was raining so the picture came out moody and I like it.
How was your Halloween?!
Wishing you all a Happy Halloween!!! Maia is a cute witch this year — kept a classic Halloween costume since last year. (Yes, it is the same black vest I crocheted, I added some lace skirt!)
Be safe and have fun! See you on Monday…
Yesterday was another great color inspired day (it was green) over at Autumn Color week flickr pool and poppytalk…. today is ORANGE.
I went to my letterpress studio yesterday and snapped a few shots along the way… so here they are. Brooklyn is huge and each area has different vibe just like Manhattan (I love that.) — I didn’t see much nature in the neighborhood, but hey, you can get inspired by these things on the street, too…
(do you see a little heart?)
Lots of brick buildings… I like brick buildings… (I actually take photos of different brick walls and use it for textures sometimes.)
and… something orange that I see… every. day. all. day….
Maia’s basketball! She loves that ball, she plays with it all day long, she brings it to the bed and sleep with it every night. ((Repeat))
We are actually inspired by this basketball of hers and making something for her for Halloween… Will share that here for sure! :)
Yes, orange is a Halloween color… have you guys been thinking about it yet?!
