YOUNG BABY DEE

i forgot how cute she used to before she became the little terror she is today (although she has become very sweet again...) (and this one doesn't count, since it is an old picture)

358. LJ and LILY

LJ and LILY

so the best thing about working on Christmas In Washington (which shall henceforth be known as CIW) is catching up with old friends and making really great new ones. 

LJ is this cuh-RAAAAZY girl who just so happens to ROCK. she lives in Alaska and is BFF's with Sarah Palin. no, not really. but she totally shoots moose from a copter. ok, well, she doesn't do that either. she actually works with disadvantaged youth out in the wilderness (they don't come from the wilderness, she takes them out into the wilderness so that they can learn life skills and how to step up their game, basically). 

She and i totally snuck in to get our picture taken with Laura Bush (George was in Iraq that day), who was a very nice lady. we were introduced ("This is JT and LJ") to which she said "JT and LJ? I am LW" which totally struck me as wicked funny. anyway, nice lady.

After the show, LJ horrified the crap out of me (it involved this hot a cappella singing dude and the words "JT" and "you bend over", but i won't go into it) but the thing is, it was absolutely something i would have done had she not beaten me to the punch.

anyway, yeah, the chick rocks.

also in the picture is Lily, who is now 14 years old, which is crazy because i have known her since she was like 6 or something crazy like that. she also rocks. also, i am now officially old.

The BUILDING MUSEUM

The National Building Museum is probably, structurally, one of my favorite museums in the city. every year i work on an event there called Christmas In Washington. 

just look at those pillars!

More Tomorrow!

I have a bunch more pics, but i am wicked tired, so i will post more tomorrow. also, i am trying to figure out exactly how to do this whole photoblog thing next year, and i am going to try and make it more of a weekly picture thing (with at least 7 a week) interspersed with some writing and thoughts and stuff. but we shall see. 

rock on!
