mini adventures in l.a.

this weekend i took a little vacation from wedding stuff... well, okay, i managed to work in some wedding stuff, but for the most part i just had fun.

saturday evening we went up to the griffith observatory and tried to find our house. we were each totally sure we had found our house and fought viciously over who was right, only to discover we were both totally wrong! :) we'll go back when we get to know the city better.


it was gorgeous up there, though, with the sun starting to set. you could see for miles around - the ocean, the mountains, the valley - it made me realize just how small i am. there are so many people out there!


on sunday i went to a summer social put on by the professional organization to which i belong - the association of marriage and family therapists. i never thought a work function would be so fun! they had an art exhibit, a beatles sing-a-long {!}, and a drum circle!!! this here is a pack of psychotherapists in the greater l.a. area... with their drums!:


yes, it was hilarious, and wonderful.

i also learned about some great classes and workshops like laughing yoga and expressive arts classes. i really hope i get to check them out soon... and who knows, maybe even teach something similar one of these days!


how was your weekend?
