us in front of a Mary Blair illustration.

Oh, I just had the loveliest Saturday since I can remember. I met with Steph for the first time. We ate soup and talk talk talked and shared stories and compared cameras and filled the little gaps of knowing left by what is inevitably not blogged. Steph is every bit as wonderful as you would expect. Sparkly and bright and engaging and genuinely interested in what you have to say.

steph is the cowgirl of the pair.

After lunch we walked to the Cartoon Art Museum as to not miss the Mary Blair exhibit (she designed the 'It's a Small World' ride and worked for Walt Disney for many years). Then the book store then coffees and more sharing. We stopped to get cream puffs for the boys we love - the boys about which we spent much of our time sharing and comparing. And then suddenly it was time to go.

beautiful steph.

It was over so fast - the time did fly - but the plans for round two are already in the works and I can't wait.
