Blog Title: The Adventures of David, Elizabeth and Leif

Ode

I’m sorry, I don’t mean to digress.  It’s not even our anniversary or anything, but I’m reading a book in which some characters are driving across Oklahoma and it put me in mind of the first road trip David and I ever took together.  It was December of 1994, we had been dating since September read more..

Blogs I’ve Been Meaning To Write

Elizabeth here. With my recent shows and general mommyness, I’ve been a very bad blogster. Dear reader, please forgive me. I know you’ve been perched on the edge of your seat since last I wrote in…let me see…November. So sit back and allow me to make up some time by blurbing read more..

Battery Park with Leif

On Saturday, Mommy was busy, so Daddy and Leif decided to attempt another adventure. It was 60 degrees at 9:00 am — incredibly beautiful weather — so we headed out the door to our favorite kid-friendly breakfast place in walking distance. When we got inside it was like 85 degrees. They needed to turn on read more..

Warm Weather, and a Viking at Coney Island

Thursday was an incredible day. I swapped days off with a guy at work, so technically I was “off” (although I was answering emails all day…). Leif and I jumped on the F-train for an adventure down to Coney Island. After a 30 minute ride, we got off the train and onto the beach. Leaf acknowledged the presence read more..

Roosevelt Island with Leif and Scott

A week ago, Scott was in town for work. We took Leif to Roosevelt Island. This is what it looks like from about 13,000 ft — it’s the island at the bottom-right of the picture. While you don’t take a jet, getting there is almost like flying — you take a cable-car over the east river. That’s read more..

Leif and the Phone

Leif has many very serious phone conversations these days …

Leif, Baptists and Beer

This week, our neighbors from the International Baptist Church a block away knocked on our door. I had a nice discussion with them. When they were satisfied with my spiritual state and the fact that I had a church home, Leif decided to crawl out of the door to our apartment, carrying his favorite toy read more..

Nasssty Hobbit

Last night’s dinner scene — ravioli. Yes, that’s all the way back to his ear. How’d it get there, you ask? For some reason, Mommy decided it was bath time after dinner. Leif liked that idea, although the flash from the camera started to annoy him…

A few bars…

You may know that I’m a choreographer and I’m working on a new show right now to be performed in NY and Atlanta this 2008…A friend of mine is composing the music for this piece (a first for me!), and last month the musicians came over for a first look at everything before going into read more..

Miss us? (And Townsend, TN)

So we’ve been incredibly lazy about blogging lately. Maybe it’s because of Leif (he’s walking), or RIBS (Elizabeth’s other baby!). A lot has happened in the 3 months since the last post. Instead of trying to catch up majorly all at once, I’m going to let Angie tell you about our awesome Christmas in Mexico. read more..
