I gave myself bangs, via the genius and scissors of Sarah Behler, and had an awesome 30th birthday week. Family dinners, skiing, sushi, and a trip to Boulder made for some good times. The best part was that I didn’t have to work! I even treated myself to an expedition medic/WALS course near Denver while visiting Wade.
I came home last night to this beautiful arrangement of flowers that were done by Bozeman’s newest flower shop, Labellum. My loving boyfriend was very sweet to have this gorgeous bunch made for me, and Labellum’s designer Remy did a fabulous job….I love it!!! Merci Dav.
Little bro Wade took me out for Ethiopian food on my true b-day, the 23rd. Yes, they let me wear the hat.
Wade’s crew was nice enough to keep me company on my b-day and share the mass amount of Ethiopian at Ras Kasas. Stephanie, Ryan, Andy, Wade, and I chipped away on some really good food….Delicious food, good peeps, and really cute, sweet, and tiny Ethiopian women.

Rabia’s and my sushi b-day dinner last weekend in Bozeman. Rachel, Me, Rosanna, and Rabia. What cool friends!
Pretty ladies.
Dav and moi….what a cute french boy.
Wade and I….ah, little brother.
Pretty cute friends…Rachel and Rosanna.
The whole gang full on sushi….clockwise from front left: Rachel, Kyle (the Greek), Rosanna, Rabia, Wade, me, David, and Colter. Thank you Seven Sushi….tasty!
Self portrait of scrunch face on the Ridge @ Bridger.
The ridge, looking North. It stayed sunny for most of the day…a rarity for me this winter.
Dad…being patient with my photo happy trigger finger…I took up my new Diana F, an artsy-fartsy medium format film camera…it is soooo cool! I was shooting like mad until I took my film into the shop and found out how much it costs to develop…boo.
This photo does not do this view justice…I dare to say this is the prettiest view to look back upon at Bridger. When the sun just touches the ridges and Bridger Canyon below sits below it’s breathtaking. Dad looking out at top along the traverse. It’s not a traverse I like to look down.
Dad…getting ready to head down Hidden.
Family B-day dinner….good old fashioned home cooking from mom…yum. Nanuq took Dav’s place at the table while Dav was finishing up work at REI.
Nanuq, what a polite dinner guest.
Me and my buddy….and my German Chocolate cake. My favorite cake in the whole wide world…I can’t remember a b-day without it.
