ERIC & LINDSAY | Denver Engagement

She stood there trying to get his attention. Not his, but the bartenders. I can imagine his little smirk as he watched as she struggled in a crowded bar trying to flag down just one person. Was there alternative motive right away, or was he just trying to help? Either way he got her attention and the bartenders for her. They started to make small talk and he knew he wanted to spend more time getting to know her. The girl who he had yet to learn would change his life. The beautiful blonde girl who was so easy to talk to… He asked her out to dinner, in to which she hesitated. The thought of dinner with someone she’d met at a bar didn’t seem to sound like her prince charming riding in on a white horse. Noticing her hesitation, he suggested coffee first… where he would then asks her out to dinner.

With a conversation that never slowed over coffee, Lindsay got a small glimpse into the world of him. She began to see how he was a combination of a realistic thinker and a dreamer. Possibly then she began to learn about how loyal is, or how dependable. She must have thought just a few times about what this coffee would lead to, but did she know it would change her entire journey? Or did Eric know that his attempt to ask this girl out to dinner would lead him to the one who is caring, who loves to make people laugh and is impeccable with timing? The girl he would work on 100 year old home with making it their’s or spend his weekends hiking with? This is what they got. This is where their journey began…

Lindsay and Eric, I couldn’t be more excited about having gotten to spend the day with you two. Thank you for being so amazing and for hanging out with the most coffee’d up version of myself I have ever seen! Enjoy your journey of life together and thank you for allowing me to capture just a small part of it.

FRIEND FAUX-GIVING

Its blurry and we just might possibly look like the plaid family but we did it. We poked and prodded. We measured and read, chopped and stuffed, seasoned and hoped… Hope it would turn out, hoped it would be eatable, hoped we would’t die from eating it. We basted every 20 minutes to ensure it was tender and juicy, we created a giant mess, we spilled on the floor, and we (and I mean me) gave ‘her’ a name.

But we did it! It was tender and juicy, it was worth the mess, the reading chopping and stuffing. Molly, the first Beck turkey was delicious.

I managed to catch the marshmallows on the sweet potatoes on fire, we had two delishious corn casseroles, the most amazing cream cheese and cashew salad, stuffing, rolls, green bean casserole, and mouth watering parmesan garlic mashed potatoes… And we had desserts, ohhh did we ever have some dessert!! We had flying pie hitting the floor, spilled champagne on the carpet, babies chasing the dog, a new puppy chasing the babies, pow-wows on the floor, and football in the street.

Memories and laughter. Stories shared and love given. Inside jokes and years of friendships. Each other.

We had our third year of our “Annual Faux-Giving-Friend-Giving-Thanksgiving’.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Traditions are starting to become a new thing for us in the Beck family. The past two years we have celebrated Halloween with Lila in our lives, we have had my parents come up the day before to carve pumpkins, see the little Miss in her costume, and of course grub on some awesome food! This year was no different. We had a spooky pumpkin with a bow for Lila, Jake made a creepy mummy, and I rocked some bats this year for the pumpkin carving. While we didn’t go trick or treating this year, Lila did enjoy running to the door every time the doorbell rang! She happily bounced around the house in her sweet wings and tutu, and waved bye to every single group of kids who came to the door. In all of her tiny Angel-Fiary-Princess-Ballerina glory… she melted our hearts looking so sweet. I hope you all enjoy your nights with you families and little goblins too!
