photobooth friday



the only good thing about those digital photobooths is that they have more space. obviously, or we would not have been able to fit two whole families inside.

truly, the most difficult thing about this whole move out to portland has been the idea of leaving family behind. my brother nate and I always thought our kids would grow up together. the idea that this won't happen (at least, not in the traditional sense), breaks my heart. and as excited as I am for ward, for myself, for my family-- I know that this will be the hardest part. everything comes at a price, everything. even this fantastic adventure.

all you need is love:

    oh! im so glad you posted this. ive been meaning to but havent a clue where the scanner is since our move.

    i cant even bear the thought. just days away now and i cant even put a coherent thought down here. is it really happening? my heart is overwhelmed with saddness and joy at the same time. i am in a state of constant denial. we will miss you all so terribly...especially Luxie...

    Oh, andrea, I am a lurker. I love and adore reading your blog and feel excited for your move as if it were my own. As Kierkegaard has said, “Without risk there is no faith, and the greater the risk, the greater the faith.”

    These new-fangled, computerized photo booths are a rare example of how technology doesn't improve upon things...I definitely prefer the old-fashioned B&W/color photo ones. (Although, the colorful, cartoony, Japanese digital ones are cool!)
