week 53: birthday

marie: it turns out that so many of my favorite people i've come to know this year all have spring birthdays. i love that. and though technically, the tlp started in february last year, the birth of my boy stunted it's 1st birthday to april. also love. naomi's cake was awesome, don't listen to her. how many people do you know can whip up a cake in the form of a CAMERA just like that? i know only one, and her name is naomi.

naomi: in april it's my birthday, then maries. then tlps. i made a polaroid cake to celebrate. it turned out a bit goofy.

next week's theme is bookish, chosen by marie.

week 52: roids

marie: you know it's springtime on flickr with the plethora of photos of flowering trees. i've limited myself to only one polaroid of a magnolia tree this spring, which was really hard. i think they are the prettiest trees, besides the willow tree, which is my favorite. since i've used up my magnolia card, i took a picture of the neighbor's tree- does anybody know what the name is? really pretty, but i think they sort of smell funny.

naomi: marie got me a pack of polaroids. i can't resist taking some of america's blue skies and neon signs. and bunting!

next weeks theme is birthday. because april is the birthday month of us both, and the transatlantic lens project turns a year old this week. thanks for spending the last year with us!

week 51: two

marie: her baby etiquette was gentle as a deer, and she is one of the smartest 2 year olds i know of. you should view this photo large, you can see both naomi's niece and my son have a case of the grumpies.

naomi: these two are destined to be together in the future. my neice and marie's son.

next week's theme is roids, chosen by naomi.
