so exciting!!! i love being part of the city that won it all - the excitement and celebration are contagious. GO YANKS!!
Haphazardly threw this ballerina costume together last night. Went to a concert instead of “out” so dressing up was a last minute decision.
ps. this was post concert, hence the wristband and glow stick. concert was thievery corporation, and they were amazing!
little girl tights and leg warmers from H&M
Danielle, my old roommate Jen’s cousin, is a very talented singer and was gifted a solo performance at the Metropolitan Room. We went tonight to hear her and were on the front row. What an amazing voice; she is a star!
Laurens apt is so spooky :) Happy Halloweennnn!!!
Lovin’ the fall leaves on the sidewalks! Happy Almost Halloween!
some friends from my fellowship group and I spent a great fall sunday afternoon in upstate new york visiting a pumpkin patch, checking out the fall foliage & lunching at a friends parents’ home. the girls of the trip were (L to R): Kara, Karma, me, and Lauren Ross.
with Andy, after our delicious doughnuts and apple cider. such a lovely & festive fall day
Lauren Ross and Me. At a gorgeous overlook in Michael Thatcher State Park outside of Albany, New York. the colors of the fall leaves were stunning!
Driving back into the city from a day trip to Albany (beautiful fall foliage!) we passed Yankee stadium. Being this close, yet not having a ticket to tonight’s Game 6, what a tease!! In any case, Go Yanks!
Humans are amphibians, half spirit and half animal. As spirits they belong to the eternal world, but as animals they inhabit time. This means that while their spirit can be directed to an eternal object, their bodies, passions, and imaginations are in continual change. Their nearest approach to constancy, therefore, is undulation - the repeated return to a level from which they repeatedly fall back, a series of troughs and peaks…As long as he lives on earth periods of emotional and bodily richness and liveliness will alternate with periods of numbness and poverty…Hence the prayers offered in a state of dryness are those which please Him best. He wants them to learn to walk and must therefore take away His hand; and if only the will to walk is really there He is pleased, even with their stumbles.
