I often get asked, 'Why did you choose 8:11 as the time to take your daily photo?' The short answer is: it's my birthday, 8/11. (It also just so happened to be a lovely post-work/pre-bed time with plenty of potential for different types of activities). As I mentioned in my previous posts, I had a particularly great birthday month this year, which in turn led to many great things happening at 8:11 pm. So here are my 8:11 highlights from the best month of the year (Note: please excuse a bit of redundancy with a few of the photos and also my 2 week tardiness in posting... blurghhh).

Farewell August... I love you. Hello fall! I'm not quite ready for you yet (where did summer go?!), but at least you bring OU football with you, so that's nice.
xoxo,
Annie.
So glad I made it into 811 highlights! AND so glad we were able to find each other in the madness of Outside Lands. In a mosh of people and dropped calls all over the place, pretty unbelievable that we caught each other.
ReplyDeleteI love that I got to celebrate your birthday with you. The cake was a bit of an experiment but I think it went over well. hehe
I <3 8:11 pics!! Looks like you had a fun filled birthday month.

Rockwell looks delicious- what city is it in?
