Last Thursday was Dessert Thursday

Written by Shannon Leigh

And to my delight Matt and I went to Cafe Luna in the old train station downtown.  I had just recently heard about the place and was dying to try it out. The ambiance was great and the food very good (Matt was concerned by the gourmet-ness of it all, but was pleasantly surprised).  We splurged on tapas and dessert and we were also served a big hunk of roasted garlic with fresh baked bread.  
I loved the art in the entrance (photos on canvas)
We ended up getting the poached pear dessert with homemade chocolate sauce and ice cream (we would definitely recommend it).  I, of course, sipped on decaf coffee and Matty enjoyed a tall glass of cherry coke.  We live on the edge.  Don't you just love the tapestry on the walls?  Now if I could only get Matt to let me wallpaper our house like that.
We had a super busy weekend (I shot a wedding and we did lots of driving).  So that means a few minutes of snuggling before we both drift off to dream land. 
Night!

Right Now...

Written by Shannon Leigh

I just got in from planting flowers, Matty is mowing the lawn, and Izzy is drinking out of the toilet (someone always forgets to leave the toilet seat down).  
It's getting ready to rain so my flowers will get a nice big drink.  I think I'll get Matty a fountain soda, I think he'd really enjoy that.

New Location

Written by Shannon Leigh

After church on Sunday, I took Matt to a new location for possible photo shoots (we only had a few short minutes).  I wanted to check out how the place photographed, so I made him pose for me (to his delight I'm sure).  They turned out AWESOME!  I cant wait to shoot some seniors here...
But in the mean time... here are Matt and I acting like 17-year-old seniors.
