we had quite the busy day. first e. stopped by in the morning to see us. then s. came to babysit. after work h. stopped by to play, and then we went to gordon to see momby. we ate in lane, which was so bizzare. it has really been years since i've been in there, and to sit there with elenora on my lap was just kind of funny. there's a new snack shop where a conference room used to be, and its architecture is made to look like a british pub. really, i almost expected to see pints of lager. unfortunately not, though.

when we got home one of our apartment house neighbors was outside of our building handing out candy. i took ella over to experience the whole candy thing. adorable. then i saw our neighbors rosie and emma across the street who i met the other day. so we went over and said hi and let ella pick a milky way out of the bucket. she was so excited by it all.

it gave me joy to be able to give her this experience.

momby came over later and j. and i got to go out to dinner, which was a lovely surprise. we went to weathervane, and we were sat in the same seats we sat in the night we got engaged.

a nice treat, to say the least.
