Okay, okay... I promise I will get better at this...

How is it possible that I haven't posted (yet again) for over 6 months!?!?! Did we talk about our car accident?? Oh, that's why I haven't posted..... Stupid stupid car accident.  It really is time consuming to have to go to the chiropractor & physical therapy, and acupuncture, and have massages.  Sounds like a life of leisure-- I can assure you, it's not.

Okay so the long of the short of it.. I started my new job in November, I'm working in a beautiful interior design boutique shop in Fort Collins, and I love it.  We hosted Christmas Family Shenanigans. It was epic, and so so fun. There was a photobooth (ala pinterest) there was soooo much cookie decorating, we found royal icing in the strangest places! (Thanks Zander-man)!  It was -21 that night, so we even got to show off our bubble freezing skills! The little kids were just shocked. But it is always fun when the temps drop.  It was so so so cold, but I love freezing bubbles. Too fun!

January was January. It is always beyond cold in Colorado during that month. The good part about it is, I get to take photos like this.... I mean really.. This is our backyard.


My wonderful friend Shanna finally got to come visit!!! We had a wonderful time with her. She even got to walk on a frozen lake.. How very "when in Colorado" of her.. Can't wait until her next trip out!!

     



In April, we took a much needed, wonderful, trip to Maui.  We went with some of our favorite people to travel with; my brother, sis-in law & the best nephews in the world.  We all had a blast & even got to see my first whale.  I know, I know.. a California girl who's never seen a whale up close..... bizarre right???


I got vertigo during the Maui vacation, and unfortunately it is still here.. I'm working with a vetibular therapist to try to get over it. Basically I've been "on the boat" since we got off the boat.. lol  I'll post more Maui photos later.. I promise!

I also got to spend like 28 whole hours with this wonderful lady! It has been WAY TOO MANY YEARS since we've been in the same state, let alone the same room.  Loved every second.


May was hectic to say the least! We had company for a week.. Stan & I have known each other for 20 years. WOW!! Who would have thought we would be turn out to be forever friends all those years ago?

& then  I got to go on my annual Mother Daughter weekend with these wonderful ladies!

In June, I turned 35.. how am I old enough to be 35?!  Seriously.. when did that happen??? And, why am I having such a hard time with it?!  Mr. Wonderful took me on a wonderful trip to South Dakota for my birthday.  We had a lovely time. We got to see Mount Rushmore! It was definitely a lot smaller than we thought it was going to be, but it was incredible.  Take me back!


Love love love this amazing husband of mine!!! <3


We even got to see the lake from National Treasure 2!  The real treasure is the view.. trust me.

It's almost July!!!! John & Candice will be here in 3 days. Cannot wait for adventures with them!! We are going to have sooooo much fun!!!
