Scenes from the Weekend

It was a festive weekend! The holdiay-ing has started!

:: Annual ornament exchange party. I brought a sushi ornament this year. It wasn't the most fought over, a VW bus won that title, but it did get stolen a few times.
Zebra Cake
:: Made this zebra cake to bring to the party.
Getting the Christmas Tree
:: We got our tree!
Tree Decorating
:: We decorated the tree. The girls L.O.V.E this!
Looking
Roast
Tree Decorating
:: Unrelated to the merry making I took a photography workshop on Saturday. I rented a portrait lens for the class and really enjoyed experimenting with it. Love the bokehs!

How was your weekend?

    That zebra cake is so fun! I would have fought you for the sushi ornament. Potters is right -- that picture of Eva and Gus is perfect!

    Did you rent an 85mm? Was it a big difference from your 50mm?

    mama llama - it was a 50mm with an 1.4fstop. The 50mm was just fine. Such a fun lens. I'm hoping Santa comes through. :)
