[Sunday night fun in the kitchen]

Where oh where did the weekend go? I hardly even remember what we did Friday…. It was so nice having a somewhat lowkey weekend in town. We celebrated a friend’s birthday in Midtown one night and spent another night making use of the projection screen in the basement.  And Craig was very handy — he replaced all of the railing on the deck staircase by himself, which took the entire day. We’re one step closer to having a newly redone and safe, sturdy deck!

Sunday, I spent the whole day indoors… on the one day that it was nice and sunny! But I’m so glad I did, because I was taking an intro photography class that covered all the basics of working with a DSLR camera. So now I actually know how to properly use the manual settings on my camera, which I’m thrilled about. I took the class through Southeast Photo Adventures, and the guy Jon who taught the class was great. I highly recommend the class if you’re wanting to learn more about the basics of photography, and they have a huge list of other offerings, including field trips around north GA, which sound so fun! I can’t wait to take another class.
