My film was delivered today!
It’s always a treat getting months’ worth of images back — truthfully — I often forget what’s on my roll 🙈
This roll includes ⬇️
1️⃣ An Angels baseball game — Willow and Winnie’s first professional baseball game, to be exact, and it was SO fun! (It might have even been Jannelle and Clay’s first MLB game too?!)
2️⃣ Allan’s second work trip to DC — this includes photos from an upgraded suite at Hotel June, Jeff Koons’ “Split-Rocker” at the Glenstone Museum in Maryland, and DC’s Metro.
We stayed at Hotel June the day before our flight out of LAX. We also bought a parking spot just steps from our terminal and it was the best thing.
Amanda took me to the Glenstone Museum in Maryland and it was other-worldly. We walked Glenstone’s property and viewed Koons’ “Split Rocker”, as well as the audio installation “FOREST (for a thousand years…)”. SO serious when I say the audio installation moved me to tears lol. The installation essentially takes you on a journey via audio that artfully depicts what life in a forest was like over one thousand years. You sit in the middle of a serene forest and just listen to these (hidden) speakers. Watch a clip of it here!
Additionally, this was the trip where I learned how to navigate DC’s metro and I LOVED IT! I felt like I could go anywhere and do anything cheaply.
3️⃣ RV camping with my parents at San Clemente State Beach — we were able to view, and enjoy, the solar eclipse and it was great 😊
4️⃣ Christmas with my family 🎄 — shots include our traditional Christmas Eve charcuterie board.
Annualy, my parents drive to Little Italy in San Diego the week before AW and I drive into town. They pick up mass amounts of Italian meats, cheeses, and desserts (dreaming about the Napoleons as we speak). There is also a shot of my dad with a weirdo mug that he drinks his tea from daily. I made the cup in my high school ceramics class and it’s hideous 🤣
5️⃣ LASTLY, A Christmas break hike at the bluffs — we came across a lock bridge and drained canal on our Panorama Preserve hike. It was such a beautiful sunny day!
